Branding

SPLETNI — a beauty club in Old Money aesthetics

The client wanted a beauty brand that doesn't look like yet another sterile salon. We built a members-only club with its own culture, where a manicure is an excuse to meet and talk.

Client

A beauty club, not a salon

SPLETNI is a beauty club built on Old Money aesthetics and the atmosphere of exclusive private clubs. The whole project starts from the name itself: here “spletni” (gossip) isn't about rumours — it's about what happens between your own people: conversations, trust, personal stories and little rituals.

The format is a club with its own culture, where beauty becomes a reason to meet, and the mood and the conversations are as much a part of the experience as the service itself. Two locations: Rostokino metro and Novokosino metro.

Not just “another salon”

We needed a visual language that reads as a private club rather than a beauty service. The name set the tone — and the identity and graphic system grew out of it.

The key nuance: don't slip into a literal “beauty salon” and don't make yet another visually sterile beauty brand. The brand had to feel exclusive, atmospheric and like it belongs to you.

What we did

We built the brand end to end — from the logo and graphics to how the identity lives inside the space itself.

Logo and identity

We designed the SPLETNI logo with a signature title on the letter “i” — little horns that turn any rounded shapes into a recognisable symbol. We defined the sizing, clear space and correct usage.

Graphic system

We built the graphics around a private-club aesthetic: the “Key” symbol — access to the exclusive and desired — and the “Portal” — an entrance into a world of private conversations and refined beauty.

Keyhole

The keyhole shape and the motif of peeking became the conceptual centre — about “access to a secret” and personal beauty rituals, easily reproduced on any medium.

Palette and photo style

A colour system in milky white, sand, deep red and green; a photo style in the spirit of Old Money — tennis, chess, private interiors.

Communications and social

We carried the style into communications and social media — a unified approach that holds the club's atmosphere rather than advertising services.

Identity in the space

We worked out the zoning and how the brand keeps living inside the club: an expressive reception, a logic for functional zones and the entrance design.

— Result

A club, not a salon

SPLETNI turned out to be a club with its own culture, where beauty is a reason to meet, and conversations and atmosphere become part of the experience. The identity works from the logo and graphics all the way to social media and the space itself.
