Article source: Ard Hoksbergen Architects This project concerns the interior of a traditional shaving salon, housed in a 19th-century shop in the city center of Amsterdam. For a raw, but warm atmosphere, mainly natural materials are used: a floor of old sawn floor beams, clay plaster, pine plates, leather and concrete.  Image Courtesy of Ard Hoksbergen

The shaving salon (www.barber.nl) is the first completed project of Ard Hoksbergen (www.ardhoksbergen.nl), who won the Dutch Archiprix in June 2012.
