The master’s workspace becomes part of the client’s experience. Therefore, even small objects can influence the perception of the entire process.
Meanwhile, the beauty industry is becoming increasingly intertwined with visual culture, individuality, and the creation of a unique atmosphere.
I decided to look at this problem from the perspective of object design. Instead of creating another standard set of accessories, I want to unify the necessary work items under a common form, material, and color palette.
The primary audience for this project is nail technicians who pay attention not only to the quality of their work but also to the appearance of their workspace.
The collection may also interest salon owners who wish to make their interior more cohesive and recognizable.
I focused on an audience for whom everyday objects could be not only functional but also beautiful. This is why the project pays close attention to details, materials, and the character of each form.
For my collection, I chose ceramics because this material allows for the creation of expressive forms and imbues everyday objects with a more sculptural character.
Unlike many standard plastic accessories, glazed ceramics are perceived as an object of design in its own right. Its surface reflects light, emphasizes contours, and creates an engaging interplay with surrounding objects.Ceramics also allow for experimentation with color, proportion, and texture while maintaining the unity of the entire collection.
The material must also align with real-world usage conditions. For professional accessories, durability, ease of regular cleaning, and surface compatibility with applied materials are crucial. Therefore, the choice of glaze and manufacturing technology must consider not only aesthetics but also practical requirements.
Color Palette
For the collection, I chose a subdued palette consisting of milky and powder-pink hues.The milky and beige colors create a calm foundation, highlighting the plasticity of the ceramic forms. The pink adds a gentle accent and is associated with the aesthetics of the beauty industry, but it doesn’t make the collection too bright or overly straightforward.
