Mani e Piedi

Mani e Piedi is a nail spa specializing in hand and foot treatments.

The space narrates the gestures associated with treatments by welcoming clients with a large wall, which also functions as a screen to ensure privacy for the natural wax pedicure part.

The natural wax softens and molds easily with the heat of the hands, inducing gestures and prompting more than just visual contact with the space.

The pedicure tubs, designed like large flower tubs, are a unique spa feature. They are filled with pipes that descend from the ceiling, ideally interrupting the flow of water (and with it energy) circulating through the space, the trace of which some of the gold mosaic tiles hint at.
