What Was The Brief?

To create a repeatable interior that reflects a natural luxurious setting that is warm and inviting yet distinguishes itself from any other spa in the vicinity.

What Space Were We Working With?

A 4,750 sq ft space, located in the affluent suburbs of Bluffton, South Carolina. This brand new build is a state of the art wellness + aesthetic facility. With the shell of the build set, we took to work maximizing the space to yield a comfortable yet functional interior flow. Gorgeous windows line the front building facade making it important to take advantage of all the natural light and views.

Our Design Ideas

These are the 3D renderings the client receive as a part of the design process

This elegant design shows exactly how being a little understated doesn’t mean you can’t still have high impact and that “wow” presence. Through the use of extra tall ceilings and statement lighting details to the integrated built-in look of the retail fixtures they all combine in harmony to create the perfect balance of a truly approachable and inviting interior.

It was important that as you start to transition through the interior that you continue to experience that same sense of comfort, wellness, and warmth. Adding in texture to add dimension and interest with wallcoverings in key areas was important to add to the upscale feeling. Overall the neutral color palette is a perfect choice for creating an interior that transcends gender and is appealing to all.

What The Client Had To Say

We were new to the industry and although we had a design/construction background we knew we wanted to defer to a designer that had a focus in the wellness industry. Our concern was that we didn’t understand the room / flow / and ancillary rooms required to run a successful medspa business. Secondarily, we needed someone to deliver our aesthetic vision. From our first team call, we knew Michele and her team were knowledgeable, and worked efficiently together to meet our aggressive timeline.

The overall result was not a surprise because of the 3-D renderings (game-changing) provided by Michele and her team. What was amazing, was how accurately their renderings matched our final spa design. This helped the construction contractors understand the detail of products they were not familiar with, and build quickly.

Our clients and our team love the space, it’s just a great experience. We knew she would create a beautiful design, but the functionality is paramount to running a profitable med spa, everything is where it needs to be for the team, and everything flows well, which means we are able to see more patients / clients daily and maximize sales.

The best thing about working with the Michele Pelafas team is they provide comprehensive design services coupled with access to fixtures, furniture, designer retail shelving, cabinetry, and soft goods.

If you are contemplating working with Michele Pelafas you need to make the decision to engage them immediately, if you want a design that delivers your vision timley. We are so impressed we are using Michele and her team for our second location and our personal residence

It’s worth noting if you are not in the Chicago area that is not an issue. Being in South Carolina we always felt connected to Michele’s team and the renderings and detailed invoices made it seamless. Lastly, all projects will have logistic issues, it’s how Michele and her team handled them is why we will be using them again.

Thank you
