这是一个位于大阪心斋桥的发廊LIM旗舰店的改造项目。我们的客户向我们解释说，”LIM “这个名字来源于 “Less Is More”，这是现代主义大师密斯-凡-德-罗的一句名言。
This is a renovation project of the flagship store of LIM, a hair salon in Shinsaibashi, Osaka. Our client explained to us that the name “LIM” is derived from “Less Is More,” a famous quote by the modernist maestro Mies van der Rohe.
对于我们建筑师来说，大师的这句话就像一个神圣的咒语，我们甚至觉得不好意思提及，但客户却意外地将其作为一个主题向我们提出。他的想法是回到他的初衷，根据 “少即是多 “的概念做一个发廊。此外，他要求我们在低预算的情况下建造它。
For us architects, the maestro’s words are like a holy mantra that we feel too embarrassed to even mention, but the client unexpectedly suggested it to us as a theme. His idea was to go back to his original intention and make a hair salon based on the concept of “Less Is More.” In addition, he asked us to build it on a low budget.
因此，我们以自己的方式消化了 “少即是多 “的概念，并决定 “将最低限度的需要最大化”。为了保持低成本，我们使用了现成的钢架作为包括架子在内的固定装置的基本结构，对其进行了修改，并将表面处理改为单层镀铬，用它们配置了空间。
We, therefore, digested the concept of “Less Is More” in our own way, and decided to “maximize the minimum necessity.” In order to keep the cost low, we used readymade steel racks as the basic structures for fixtures including shelves, modified them, and changed the finish to uni-chrome plating, and configured the space with them.
镜子是美发厅中必不可少的物品，我们尽可能地将其做大，并以固定的间隔放置。它们被设计成可以移动的方式，以清理空间，为包括跳蚤市场在内的活动腾出空间。因此，我们创造了一个空间，人们可以在这里体验关西最令人耳目一新的宽阔空间。
Mirrors, which are essential items in a hair salon, were made as large as possible and placed at regular intervals. They are designed in such a way that they can be moved to clear the space and make room for events including flea markets. As a result, we have created a space where people can experience the most refreshing wide-open space in Kansai.
在这个空间的后面，有一个被称为 “loji “的沙龙，它没有被隔板所分割。这是一家为年轻顾客提供的沙龙，他们喜欢改变自己的发型，就像享受时尚一样，价格低廉，由正在接受培训的年轻造型师提供服务。它是年轻造型师的垫脚石。那些获得年轻顾客并对自己的专业技能大加赞赏的人将会升到LIM。为了进一步降低成本，我们保留了现成钢架的绿色，并尽可能多地使用现成的部件，而不对形状进行过多的修改。
At the back of this space, there is a salon called “loji,” which is not divided by partitions. It is a salon for young customers who enjoy changing their hairstyles as if enjoying fashion, with low prices and services provided by young stylists in training. It is a stepping stone for young stylists. Those who gain young customers and horn their professional skills will move on to LIM. In order to further reduce the cost, we kept the green color of readymade steel racks and used as many readymade parts as possible without modifying the shapes too much.
