A modern indoor space with wooden barber chairs designed to look like cars, a bookshelf with children's books on the left, and a woman and a child. The child is sitting in a white wooden car labeled "Safari," while the woman appears to be helping or talking to her. The room has an industrial ceiling with exposed ducts and track lighting.

SIT STILL KID’S SALON

Physical Space was tasked with designing a family-friendly children’s hair salon that could serve as a scalable model for the Sit Still franchise. The result is a playful, easily replicable environment featuring fluted furniture, oversized mirrors, and custom car-themed stations.

In addition to establishing the design standards for the brand, Physical Space supported the client in rolling out the first locations as the franchise expanded.
