BOILERHOUSE NEWCASTLE<br />
Having opened its fi rst salon 32 years ago in Jesmond, Boilerhouse has<br />
unveiled a second in nearby Ouseburn. It’s a family-run business, with<br />
parents Steve and Kim working alongside their son Felix and their niece<br />
Saskia. Felix takes the reins at this site, which has been a complete<br />
refurbishment. As the Jesmond salon is in a beautiful old building, the task<br />
was to keep a semblance of their trademark Boilerhouse style in the new<br />
industrial location, while ensuring it’s in keeping with its surroundings. It<br />
has a raw, exposed feel and incredible detail, fi nished with plenty of potted<br />
plants. Aston & Fincher supplied the chairs and wash basins, while the big<br />
leather sofa was custom made. There are some lovely individual touches –<br />
in addition to lots of antique fi nds, the lights in the basin room were from a<br />
ship and the big entrance lights were sourced from an oil rig!<br />
