Look inside: Penzone Salon and Spa revamps former flagship location for multi-use space

DUBLIN, Ohio (WCMH) — Penzone Salon and Spa has finished the transformation of its former flagship location into a new multipurpose building, equipped for corporate gatherings and home to a training salon, co-working spaces for rent, a yoga studio and a café.

The beauty company has repurposed its original building constructed in 1991 at 6671 Village Pkway. in Dublin into a new 18,000 square-foot space called “Penzone Base One.” The 33-year-old building sits on the company’s 3.52-acre Dublin campus, the same property that’s home to Penzone’s salon and spa built in 2018 and a new “live-work” building under construction that will feature an art gallery and residence for the company’s founder.

“Base One is intended to spark energy, boost individuals and connect people,” said Debbie Penzone, the company’s president. “We see this as a space for our team, our local salon and spa colleagues, and salon industry professionals from all across the United States — all to propel the beauty industry forward.”

The company’s sixth salon and spa will operate out of Base One, serving as a training site providing bookable services for guests to be models as Penzone artists sharpen their skills. The salon and spa may also be rented by manufacturers and industry artists for classes.

Each month, Base One will curate ticketed events for “training, education and community cultivation.” Studios, including three outdoor spaces, are available for rent for training events, team buildings, wellness retreats, special happy hours and more. Each space is customizable, with programming amenities like art classes and catering by Cameron Mitchell Premier Events.

Several other spaces will also be available for rent in Base One, including office suites, spa suites, an on-air studio, idea room and co-working office rentals. Office renters will be able to furnish their office to their liking and will have key fob access. Spa suites will give any spa or wellness practitioner, tiny tattoo artist and others a private room with flexible rental term options.

The idea room is equipped to handle whiteboard sessions and multimedia presentations for groups of 10 or less. The on-air studio is acoustically optimized for creators and influencers to produce podcasts and audio recordings, while photographers and videographers can utilize the
creative studio.

In addition, L I T Life + Yoga will operate out of Base One’s “movement studio.” More than 17 weekly classes and a series of labs and special events will allow students of all levels to explore the benefits of yoga, movement and meditation. This is Penzone’s second L I T Life + Yoga space after its flagship studio opened in Italian Village in 2017.

Base One will also be home to a café and bar with complimentary Crimson Cup drip coffee, water and small bits from Krema Nut Co. Made-to-order café drinks and cocktails will
be available during curated events.

“Whether here for a training, event, yoga class, team building retreat, or to run a business, our goal is that everyone will leave a little bit changed — feeling enlightened, inspired, connected and fulfilled,” Penzone said.

The transformation continues a series of renovations across the company’s portfolio. Penzone constructed its new Dublin salon in 2018, followed by a new Short North location the same year. The Polaris and German Village locations have also undergone remodeling. In April of 2022, Penzone opened a New Albany salon, replacing the area’s former location on Cherry Way.
