Buller & Rice

Sustainable Hairdressers, Newington Green N16

A warm, modern and luxurious setting for cutting-edge sustainable hairdressing practices, long-listed for a 2019 Dezeen Award for Small Interior Design

Combining sustainable hair care with eco-friendly practices, Buller and Rice turned to Lozi to continue this approach throughout their interiors in their first salon in Newington Green, East London. Combining our signature luxury plywood designs with specially sourced cutting-edge sustainable materials, Buller and Rice prove that luxury high-quality design can also be sustainable and environmentally friendly.

Co-founder Anita Rice wanted to keep the design of the salon sympathetic to the original shop, designing the space and colours around an original mosaic floor in the entrance. For the stations upstairs, Lozi combined sustainable plywood with deep walnut veneer to offset the brand’s green and pink colour scheme. The surfaces are made from a bio laminate with recycled straw, with made-to-measure storage and details specifically designed for the salon like hidden handles to hook brushes onto and an easily accessible hairdryer holder in the corner.

Small made to measure details like these ensure each appointment runs as smoothly as possible

The same station designs are found in the downstairs area, this time with white recycled yoghurt pot surfaces and oak veneer to set off the bold pink wall colours and re-upholstered Belmont chairs. The round mirror fittings were specifically designed for the salon, reflecting the shape of the recycled chairs.

The reception area has a bespoke curved till and a long bench in luxurious walnut veneer, both unique pieces designed for the salon. The till area has specific areas for computers, cash machines and paperwork, all designed to hide away any unsightly electronics and charging stations. Bespoke shelves proudly display the refillable and sustainable hair care products on offer.
