Positioned on the bottom ground of a tiled, multi-story constructing that solely dates to the Seventies, the salon has an appropriately soothing lost-in-time vibe.

The Yangs describe the outcomes as “minimalist however infinite, marrying the richness and magnificence of teas into the small print.” We’re impressed to borrow many of those particulars for our personal properties.
