chess champion and sweet fades

WOW atelier was commissioned to design a unique barbershop, home to the Utah State Chess Champion. The client had a particular fascination with the Fibonacci sequence and the way math can shape spaces. Taking this vision to heart, WOW atelier incorporated parametric design concepts with Fibonacci embedded into the code, crafting curvilinear forms for the walls and ceilings. The goal was simple yet profound: to create an environment that, from any angle in the barber’s chair, would reflect the passions and personality of the barber himself.

Every curve and contour within the space is an ode to both the beauty of mathematics and the client’s love of precision. The result is a setting that immerses clients in a truly distinctive atmosphere, transforming the typical barbershop experience into something artfully tailored, where geometry and personal identity meet in perfect symmetry.
