All of its stores were company-owned and its 600 employees were full-time with health benefits prior to the pandemic. You can contrast that cut of Mosaic’s business with Rudy’s, the Capitol Hill-headquartered barber concept saved from bankruptcy last year by a group including its E Pine-powered founders. Griff explained to CHS that there are typically three types of people who choose to rent from Mosaic: people who use an independent, smaller studio as a stepping-stone to their own salon, people who have already owned their own salon but now want to work by themselves, and those who never want to have to worry about owning their own salon and want the things like maintenance, electricity, and other utilities done for them so they can focus on the job. Growing a customer base and attracting new clientele? While Mosaic provides the ability for a customer to search out specific services by the location of its studios, more of the individual marketing is done by each owner via social media and their own websites. A visit to the group’s website at illustrates the company’s business focus with pitches for stylists and beauty entrepreneurs to lease spaces at its seven Seattle-area locations. Mosaic isn’t necessarily in the business of selling you a color or a cut. “We’re providing a platform for people to be self-employed who maybe don’t have that opportunity otherwise,” said Griff. Mosaic also says it allows tenants the freedom to design their studio however they like artists are welcome to paint, decorate, and furnish each studio to fit the needs and style of their business.

The resources that come with Mosaic facilities include wifi, communal washers and dryers, free parking permits, and 24/7 access to their studios. “What we do is straightforward - We provide a place for people to come and open their business and not have to worry about other things,” said Griff. Mosaic provides salon and spa owners with individual spaces that they can lease on a weekly rent basis and make their own. “The independent spirit and sense of community will be perfect.”. “We’ve targeted the Capitol Hill market for a while, the ethos of Capitol Hill is perfectly suited for what we do,” said Mosaic owner Paul Griff. There will be both a street entrance as well as a second floor entrance above the market’s QFC grocery store. The new set of leasable suites scheduled to open as early as May is taking the large retail space formerly home to Urban Outfitters in the Broadway Market shopping center corner of Broadway and Harrison.
Mosaic, a privately owned facilities management company that leases studios to salon and spa business owners, is opening its biggest location yet this spring on Capitol Hill.
