Redesign for Spa

Hello,
I am scheduled to redecorate a Spa for a client this weekend. I am excited about the opportunity and I have many ideas about how to rearrange the furniture but I am curious if there are any guidelines for places like these. Since it isn't a room in a home are there different things to consider? There isn't exactly a focal point such as a fireplace or TV.
The spa owner has a couple of different areas ie: haircutting chair, skin & massage chair (which is located behind a folding screen, reception desk and waiting area.
I just wanted to know if you have any tips regarding a place like this as I might have more in the future if this one is successful.
Thank you,
Laura
============================================

It's totally impossible to advise you with no knowledge whatsoever of the space or what's in it. Then you have to choose a focal point, or focus on the way to best make clients at the spa feel the most comfortable. Many businesses like this have a lot of literature scattered about. Try to declutter the space and make it as peaceful a setting as you can. Create vignettes with the furniture if you can, rather than the "chairs pushed up against the wall in a row" sort of thing that one normally sees. Look for ways to make the waiting area pleasant as it's gets boring quickly in there.
