Salon Mittermeier Facade by X Architekten
X Architekten designed the facade for the Salon Mittermeier in Linz, Austria.
The styling activity of a hairdresser was expressed on the exterior through a three-dimensional wave, a mildly abstract metaphor for the hair styling that takes place inside. The facade serves as both a sign that attracts attention, and as a curtain over the windows to provide a degree of privacy.

The slats are made of laminated sheets and cut by water-jet.
