At Tales of the Cocktail 2026 in New Orleans, we brought together / M O N I C A B E R G /💞, Leo Robitschek Bayona and Denny Kallivoka, moderated by Carlo Carnevale, for a conversation on how design impacts the way bars actually work.

Not just how they look, but how people move, communicate and work within them, and what that means for wellbeing, inclusivity and the business itself.

Carlo Carnevale takes the conversation further in six takeaways for The Spill.

No universal rules. Better questions.

Kitty’s Cosmopolitan Club in Chicago.
A beautiful project beneath Crying Tiger, with a very clear identity and a drinks program that moves between ultra-cold cocktails and tableside rituals.
For the bar, Behind Bars delivered a custom Paloma Double beneath the stone counter, plus a bespoke Tambour trolley finished with wood and metal accents.

From the soil to the glass, Alquímico keeps things close to home.
Its farm, local ingredients and relationships with producers and communities have grown into a much bigger hospitality ecosystem, shaped by Jean Trinh and the wider Alquímico team.

As Alquímico evolved, the stations behind it had to evolve too.

Before the systems, the projects and the team, it was two people trying to make something work between day jobs, night shifts and a lot of figuring it out as they went.
A fragment from Alex Ruas and Sam Millin Behind Bars looking back at how it actually started.

There wasn’t one big break. Moving from advice into bar design, hiring the first person and being trusted with bigger projects slowly changed what the company could take on.
The turning points rarely looked like turning points at the time.

[ CONT. ]

More than a decade later, a lot of the work is still happening where nobody sees it: developing products, improving processes, testing new ideas and investing properly in what can make bars work better.
Different scale. Still plenty to figure out.

These fragments came from a conversation between Alex and Sam that became the starting point for our latest story on The Spill.
A look back at the night shifts, early mistakes, projects and decisions that shaped Behind Bars, and why we’re still investing in what comes next.

Atman in Porto is built around the relationship between the space, the drinks and the way the team works.

The space brings together ritual, a drinks programme structured around Mind, Body and Soul, and an intimate interior that shifts the pace from the moment guests arrive. Behind the counter, a custom Paloma × Tayēr station supports the team and keeps the craft visible throughout service.
