NailSpot opens as a measured study in calm for a nail studio in Prague, Czech Rep., shaped by local practice Studio Plyš. The interior translates a manicure and pedicure program into a luminous sequence of rooms where light, color, and furnishings work in concert to pull visitors away from the street. Every gesture tracks the rituals of care that define this compact urban salon.

Black and grey surfaces, warmed by wood, hold a restrained mood that suits both the city and the client’s pared-back way of living.
Villa Colucci stands in Fasano, Italy, where Francesco Mastrororsa guides the careful revival of a historic villa turned hotel rich with art and memory.
