CBS Broadcast.
Two on-air styling suites built for turnaround between segments, where the finish had to read as well on camera as it does in the room.

Two stations built around one production rhythm: get someone camera-ready and back out fast, more than once a day. Each suite pairs a styling chair with its own backlit mirror, so the light on set matches the light the work was done under.
A working shampoo sink went into the counter run, plumbed and drained like any other fixture, not staged for a photo. Two finish languages carry the two rooms, a blue textured wall in one and an olive wallcovering in the other, so each suite reads as its own space rather than a repeated kit of parts.
Everything sits on a broadcast floor, which means an install schedule built around air time rather than an open site, and a punch list with no tolerance for a mirror light that hums on a live feed.
