first interior design in Milan

—

Hello, design lovers!

If you are not a new member of our blog, you know how much of a fan club we are of Masquespacio! If you are new here, welcome, and it is with all the pleasure we present you Masquespacio's latest project !!

Masquespacio has just finished its first interior design project in Milan for the Italian hamburger chain Bun. After presenting a collection in 2016, and their collaborative exhibition with Italian terracotta artisan Poggi Ugo during the last Milan Design Week. Masquespacio returns to Milan with its first interior design project for Bun, located at Viale Bligny, next to the Bocconi University.

The project aimed to create an identity with a clear focus on the younger generations and at the same time represent a more sophisticated approach for a high-quality hamburger restaurant.

During the last years, there is a strong growth of hamburger chains, although most of them opt for a vintage & industrial look for their spaces. The design developed by Masquespacio for Bun takes the opposite direction and seeks to create an innovative concept that showcases the authenticity of Bun and its smash burgers.

This way Masquespacio has used gold touches and terrazzo tiles mixed with a splash of colour that creates a sophisticated but at the same time fresh design.

The project itself starts from the investigation of the existing elements of the space with the aim to integrate them into the overall design aesthetic.

“When we saw the beautiful bricks and arcs from the space it was evident for us that we would use these two elements as the starting point of the design.” -Ana Hernández, creative director from Masquespacio.

To create a uniform aesthetic through the space, Masquespacio added additional arc forms with a green and purple colour through the whole interior, some totally independent and others are highlighting the already existing arcs from the interior architecture.

Additionally, the wooden table tops and plants represent the healthy and zero plastic identity from Bun.

After their successful collaboration in this project, Masquespacio and Bun are now also working on several new restaurants, amongst which the next one will be Buns’ first opening in Turin. And we will keep in tuned to show more of their upcoming projects!
