Style Club is a hair salon. But Style Club is also NOT a hair salon – because it’s about much much more. Style Club, on boutique-and-café-strewn South William Street, is a graphic feast for the eyes. The seeming chaos of bright colours and mad patterns are courtesy of New Yorker Garry Cohn, architect at Douglas Wallace in Dublin. ‘I was thinking of Alice in Wonderland as a punk rocker,’ he says of his interiors. But there is method in his madness. ‘It works because of the carefully placed proportions of graphics, geometrics and natural forms, meaning your eye doesn’t get lost. And then the white floor with its tiled runner grounds the whole space.’ |
