A pioneer in Atlanta’s beauty and wellness scene, Aviary Beauty + Wellness in historic Old Fourth Ward opened its doors in 2009. Tucked away in Studioplex Lofts, a 1906-built cotton warehouse, with zero foot traffic from the then burgeoning and now bustling neighborhood surrounding it, the boutique, rustic-modern studio has always thrived on word of mouth for its solid reputation. A peaceful, desirable environment for top talent to work, Aviary attracts the finest estheticians and best stylists in Atlanta to its inviting space housing two soothing treatment rooms and three salon chairs. Designed by design duo Alyssa Cassatto and Gavin Bernard for Grafite Ink, the studio upholds owner Amy Leavell Bransford’s sustainable practices including wood details harvested from her parents’ sustainable tree farm. Custom metal and millwork designed by local craftsmen from B10 Union enhances the attractive and welcoming beauty sanctuary for all.

Just like its Old Fourth Ward sister, which is situated down the block from Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birth home, Aviary’s second location opened in one of Atlanta’s historic neighborhoods. In the 1860s, Summerhill’s early inhabitants were emancipated slaves and Jewish immigrants and later, was home to several of Atlanta’s influential civic and business leaders. Today, Summerhill is getting its second wind, and the growing team at Aviary Beauty + Wellness is excited to be in the heart of it. With design team extraordinaire Sacred Space Studio and Amanda Dashwood Interiors, architect Leanne Epstein, custom mural and wallcoverings created with Amy Parry Projects and custom millwork by B10 Union, the bohemian and Art Nouveau-styled beauty and wellness studio was born in Summer 2021. With two luxurious treatment rooms and four salon chairs, Aviary Beauty + Wellness Summerhill upholds our boutique philosophy that more isn’t always more. The inviting, lofty space embraces customers seeking an everyday escape with its spa-like vibes and highly personalized beauty services.
