Our collaboration with @indiewalls and artist/author @AnnaKasabian on this nautical-inspired installation turned out fantastic! The delicate nature of the piece mixed with the organic forms is exactly what this dining room at Portsmith needed to feel complete. #design #art

#repost Lighting design can be more like an art form than it is creating a basic, functional piece. This chandelier designed by Lindsey Adelman Studio is a great example of when a light fixture can be both an art piece AND a functional source of light! #lighting #design #inspo

We LOVE a good tufting detail on a chair, barstool, or sofa! These "Button Tufted Cowboy Bar Stools" by @logobarstools that we pulled for Dixie are stunning, and fit the concept of the space perfectly. Sometimes it's the small details that make a design complete!

Today's #inspo comes from the high-end #fashion industry! We love the simple & contemporary nature of this "Lecce Leather Belt" by Isabel Marant. When relating this piece back to interior design, we think of a fun furniture strap detail or a fun way to wrap a globe light fixture!

Mixing #materials and patterns is a great way to make a space more dynamic. Some of our favorite materials to mix can be seen in the @kennisonchicago's bar design - Where we used different patterns of tile, brass light fixtures, and leather/brass/wood for the bar front. #design

The vibrant works by artist Iván Navarro (@Ivan.Navarro.artist on Facebook) give us a fun take on #perspective within a given space - however big or small! This specific piece is titled "Bombo." #art #artinspiration #neon

#Outdoor design has always been an important aspect for any public space. This new collection by Mama Green has us ready to see what else the outdoor #furniture game has in store for this year!

Testing out a new palette for a *NEW project! This one features a simplistic and natural aesthetic, with some "blocHaus" flair! Something warm and inviting, while also architectural and dynamic. Stay tuned for more! #interiordesign #palette #materials #sneakpeek

Today's #MillworkMonday is dedicated to these stunning banquettes we designed for Dixie & 1952 1/2 Liquorette. Designed to look like furniture pieces, they help the space feel cottage-like and intimate - exactly the sort of vibe we were going for! #design #interiordesign

#Construction is the part of the design process where a design finally comes to life! It's where ideas are applied in real life and a space starts to transform. Construction and installations are some of the most exciting moments in our careers.

Since the team has been working mostly from home (I can't believe it's been over a year now!) trips to the office have turned into like a small getaway, perfect for settling in with a cup of coffee and a laptop, ready to get work done. Here's to a great week everyone! #designlife

Peek-a-boo! Branded experiences can happen at any moment in a space - sometimes in places you least expect it. We still love how this project turned out for @thesixthbar! #branding #lounge #logo #graphicdesigner

[blocHaus @blocHaus]

Enjoying this #ThrowbackThursday remembering the awesome project we did for @BerkshireRoom and @acmehotelchi! The design for this bar and lounge is a contemporary but respective homage to the "Berkshire Hotel" that used to occupy the space in the 1920's. #hotels #interiordesigner

Lighting is a huge source of inspiration for our team! The possibilities are endless - to the point where they become an art form all on their own. A great example is this amazing installation by @bruce_munro called "Field of Light". #lighting #designinspiration

#Branding is important for any business across any type of sector. At blocHaus, not only can we design your space but we can also help create or completely redesign your brand entirely - from logos, to brand names, menus, uniforms, and so much more! #design #graphicdesigner

Bars are one of our favorite elements to design on restaurant projects. They are often the heart and the pinnacle of a space, where all the design elements come together in a dynamic and interactive way! @thehalfnelson #restaurants #interiordesign #interiordesigner #furniture

Awesome window display at @thefighouse in LA! It's a fun, more contemporary take on the typical style you come across with stained glass windows. We can only imagine how beautiful they are when sunlight passes through them at just the right angle. #designinspiration #stainedglass

[blocHaus @blocHaus]

These gorgeous Strike chairs at Restaurant GOUD in the Netherlands by @arrmet Lab are the same spec we used for our project with Apogee Lounge! It's always fun to see how someone else envisions the final look of a product you are using too! #interiordesign #design #furniture

Starting with a monochromatic palette, we added some sage #green tones to the mix for a much needed pop of color. As you may already know, the color green is very symbolic of nature and health in any area of design, but especially for interiors! #materialpalette #palette #design

[blocHaus @blocHaus]

One of our favorite aspects of #design is that the possibilities are truly endless - regardless of budget, time frame, and concept! Each new project brings a new story, and you never know which stories are going to come across your desk.
