Costume & Set Design / Ingmar Bergman’s Cries and Whispers

Often referred to as the reddest movie in the history of cinema, Cries and Whispers (1972) by Ingmar Bergman is a visceral exploration of death, pain, loneliness, and fleeting compassion, told almost entirely through color, silence, and the subtle language of gesture.

Margins of the Pulse / A conversation with Lacchesi

Rooted in rhythm but guided by instinct, his journey from classical instruments to the sweat-soaked ritual of the dancefloor has been less a shift than a slow unfolding. His sound doesn’t shout, it lingers. It builds. It breathes. And when it hits, it doesn’t ask for permission. With Maison Close, he’s created more than a label, it’s a space for nuance, for experimentation, for artists who don’t fit neatly into the frame. His debut LP let go of the club for a moment, reaching inward instead. But the floor is never far. Whether closing at Bassiani or returning home for Boiler Room Paris, Lacchesi plays with a quiet intensity that doesn’t need to prove anything.

Berlin, My Love, My Paradox

Berlin presents itself as a hub of inclusivity in the fashion industry, but beneath the surface, much of it feels like curated aesthetics and hollow gestures. Through the raw, unfiltered lens of Tiresia—a trans model fighting for real representation and diversity in fashion—the city’s underground spirit feels like it’s fading, trading rebellion for marketable diversity and selling out what made it real in the first place.
