Neon Lit Barber Station with Postservice Packet Organizer

Bright mirror bulbs cast a harsh, white spill across a chrome tray holding an acrylic packet organizer. Inside the compartmentalized slots, colorful paper cards and folded terry cloth napkins rest beside handles of translucent plastic. The scene sits at a barber station in Nampo, where early winter is hinted at by the heavy, warm fabric of the cloths. Neon light reflects softly off the polished metal surfaces and the smooth edges of the plastic tools. Shadows pool in the deep corners of the organizer, against the bright glare from the ceiling fixtures. The arrangement looks used yet orderly, suggesting a quiet moment after the last client has left for the night. A faint, cool reflection of a red neon sign glides along the bottom rim of the chrome tray.
