CrispiUp, a dialogue between contrasts

Edoardo Milesi & Archos as Architects

This time, my barber dared to push beyond the boundaries of tradition, betting everything on a revolutionary idea: a hair atelier designed to welcome both men and women in a shared space where professionalism and ambiance merge in perfect harmony. The beating heart of this project comes to life on the second floor of a historic building in the center of Bergamo, where the charm of bygone eras intertwines with a bold and refined contemporary vision.

The environment unfolds as a dialogue between contrasts: the warmth of natural wood surfaces and soft fabrics meets the geometric purity of brushed metal and the sophisticated transparency of glass, creating a setting that celebrates the coexistence of tradition and innovation. The walls, partly left raw to highlight their historical authenticity, alternate with minimalist finishes that embrace natural light, reflected and amplified by large mirrors framing picturesque views of the city.

The clean, precise lines of the furnishings are not only functional but also convey a refined aesthetic that evokes understated elegance. Every detail – from the layout of the spaces to the meticulously designed light cuts – is crafted to create a welcoming and engaging atmosphere. The carefully selected materials provide a tactile sense of quality and care, while vibrant accents of color punctuate the neutral tones of the interiors, adding dynamism and character.

Stepping into this atelier is not merely entering a space for personal care but immersing yourself in a multisensory experience: architecture, materials, shapes, lights, colors, music, and scents are all meticulously calibrated to transform the time spent here into a truly unique moment. It is a space that celebrates beauty, weaving together past and future, simplicity and complexity, into a harmonious blend that offers every client an experience of authentic and unmistakable glamour.
