Description
In a whirlwind six-week transformation, Cornerstone led the renovation of a historic 1920s building in downtown Atlanta, converting it into Ephemeral Tattoo’s first location in the city. The project posed significant challenges, including a tight timeline, supply chain disruptions, and the complexities of modernizing a century-old structure. As a trusted provider of commercial construction in Atlanta, Cornerstone’s expertise was key to overcoming outdated infrastructure and evolving building codes. Through careful planning, swift procurement of materials, and innovative problem-solving, the team ensured the project was completed on schedule and within budget, meeting the client’s vision for an exciting and functional space.
The renovated space is a reflection of Ephemeral Tattoo’s forward-thinking approach to body art. Departing from traditional tattoo shop designs, the new location blends contemporary style with the artistic nature of the business. The design features private tattoo booths, each offering a sense of intimacy and privacy, while a spacious lobby creates an open, welcoming atmosphere for clients. The unique blend of vibrant colors, custom fixtures, and modern lighting not only enhances the customer experience but also aligns with Ephemeral’s mission to push boundaries in the tattoo industry. Cornerstone’s team expertly incorporated these creative elements while maintaining the building’s historical charm, allowing the design to speak to the brand’s innovative and fun spirit.
Additionally, the space incorporates specialized features tailored specifically for a tattoo studio environment. This includes specialized plumbing systems designed to meet health and safety standards for a professional tattoo environment, as well as custom lighting solutions that ensure optimal visibility for both artists and clients. Ergonomic workstations for artists were thoughtfully integrated to maximize efficiency and comfort during long hours of work, while maintaining the overall flow of the space. Custom signage and artistic murals were strategically placed to reinforce the unique identity of Ephemeral Tattoo, creating an immersive atmosphere that reflects the creative nature of the business. These design elements work in harmony to not only elevate the studio’s brand but also to provide an environment where self-expression is celebrated.
The Ephemeral Tattoo Atlanta location stands as a testament to what can be achieved through collaboration, creativity, and expert craftsmanship in commercial construction. Cornerstone’s work not only revitalized a historic building but also provided Ephemeral Tattoo with a space that reflects their unique approach to the tattoo experience, helping them to set new standards in the industry.
