coffee house progress

Coffee house for millennials -- architectural finishes in progress. 

The palette is fresh and light, with pops of color.  Aqua and yellow will add a bright compliment to the white walls, grey accents, polished concrete floors, metal and wood elements.  We're excited about the custom features and design details throughout. 

Demo has begun...

2015 color of the year

It's here...the color of the year for 2015: 

Marsala

For decades, Pantone's Color of the Year has influenced product development and purchasing decisions in fashion, home and industrial design, as well as product packaging and graphic design. Here's what they say about the color that will be appearing throughout fashion and retail design in the near future: 

“This earthy red has wine and a very warm brown underneath, which gives the feeling of groundedness, strength, and confidence,” says Leatrice Eisman, Executive Director of Pantone Color Institute. “It has a richness that lends sophistication.” 

A departure from the last few years of bright hues, we're seeing mixed emotions on this color choice.  What's your reaction? 

oooh la la

Gorgeous grays. Super excited for these design elements to come together: large barn doors, chalkboard wall, custom reception desk and conference table, unique light fixtures...oooh la la!

scandinavian design

 A family-run company gets a new office with a Scandinavian twist...oh yeah, you-betcha (I couldn't resist).
I stopped at the job site today and I love it!  The new build-out will wrap up next week. 

 Scandinavian design is characterized by simplicity, minimalism and functionality.  

The monochromatic color palette of blues, along with taupe and ivory, works well with their light wood trim and gray Herman Miller workstations!
The architectural details in the galley and restrooms are my favorite (more photos to come). 

studio time

Baby it's cold outside!
But in the studio there's warm chai latte, festive music, and architectural finishes for a new project…

auto

Working on schmatic plans for an auto collision center!  The furniture and architectural finish pallettes are inspired by the automotive industry.  A mix of clean lines, vibrant accents, with a comfortable waiting area.
