TRACCE: where design meets craftsmanship
Some connections begin with a shared sensibility and become an opportunity to create something new.
TRACCE grew out of this idea: bringing different creative worlds together, combining UPPa’s approach to design with Morellini Lab’s craftsmanship and vision.
For the occasion, UPPa Lab welcomed Giulia, the jewelry maker behind Morellini Lab, showcasing her creations and introducing a special project that brought together accessories, materials, and the art of making by hand.
Two creative worlds meet
During TRACCE, Giulia’s creations found a home at the Lab, giving visitors the chance to discover and purchase her handcrafted jewelry.
It was an opportunity to get to know her work and see how two independent brands, each with its own identity, could exchange ideas and inspire one another.
This is what we envision for UPPa Lab: a space where design encourages discovery and connection, including through the work of other creatives.
A scarf, a clasp, a shared story
At the heart of the collaboration was a piece created especially for TRACCE: a limited-edition UPPa scarf paired with a silver clasp handcrafted by Giulia.
Two different elements, designed to come together and complement each other. The scarf brings versatility and character to an outfit, while the silver clasp adds a precious detail, allowing it to be gathered and styled in different ways.
A small, collaborative design projectin which fabric and silver find their balance, each bringing out the qualities of the other.
The limited edition gave this creative connectiona tangible form: a wearable piece reflecting the contribution and sensibility of both brands.
UPPa Lab: a space open to creativity
With TRACCE, we shared another side of life at UPPa Lab: welcoming people and projects that share an appreciation for design, exploration, and things made with care.
We believe the most interesting collaborations happen when distinct identities come together, each retaining its own character while making room for fresh interpretations and unexpected results.
That was TRACCE: a moment of connection and a special creation, born from a shared desire to experiment.
Because sometimes, meeting someone new leaves a mark.
