ard hoksbergen: barber amsterdam

barber shaves and trims amsterdam by ard hoksbergen

amsterdam-based architect ard hoksbergen has sent designboom images of his interior design of barber, a traditional shaving salon placed within a 19th-century shop in the downtown core of the capital city of the netherlands. the project expresses a raw, but warm atmosphere, where mainly natural materials are used. a floor of old sawn floor beams, clay plaster, pine plates, leather and concrete provide an industrial-type feel, exposing a network of copper pipes that influence the inner workings of the barber shop.
