McIntyres’ Union Street project brought a previously run down corner building back into use. Originally consisting of 4 separate units, the core was removed and a new steel frame installed to provide accommodation across three levels.
The design of the interior provides a bright, spacious reception area where customers can be greeted and consultations can take place. Salon areas are treated similarly and are characterised by clean lines, crisp detailing, and minimal clutter. Feature lighting is used to enhance the minimalist spaces and continue the theme which has been set by the illuminated signage on the facade.
The McIntyres projects, including the Perth Road and Second Phase developments, have received a number of accolades including a Scottish Regeneration Award, Civic Trust Award, Dundee City Council Award, Scottish Design Award, National Salon Design Award, and a Dundee Institute of Architects’ Award.
