Ironhand
An unmarked doorway and dark stair lit by one warm bulb

First floor · Wick Lane

Up the stairs, past the door with no sign

What is in it

  • 01

    Two chairs

    1950s cast bases, re-upholstered in oxblood. Nothing else fits up the stairs.

  • 02

    One lamp per chair

    Tungsten, low and warm. Overhead strip lighting flatters nobody.

  • 03

    Black tile

    Floor to shoulder height, so the room is quiet and hair is easy to see.

  • 04

    A radio, not a playlist

    Turned down during the wash. Turned off if you ask.

  • 05

    No retail wall

    One shelf, four products, none of which anyone will push at you.
