This glamorous yet gritty room is the home of Studio C, a collaboration between a boutique menswear tailor, Blair Wheeler, and hairdresser Devo Peng. Jessica Blair of Jessica Blair Design was asked to transform the large industrial space in downtown Auckland into something of a ‘craftman’s community.’
She explains: “I was invited to come up with a layout and design for the salon that complemented the tailor’s space. Devo asked for something with theatre that was special and a little unexpected. Flexibility was also a requirement so the space could be transformed for fashion shows and gallery exhibitions.”
