LAB | Custom Furniture
Sparrow Coffee | design by blocHaus
It may sound obvious, but we love working with clients to find the best solutions for their project! Sourcing materials, furnishings, and fixtures can be a challenge for unique spaces, but finding the right option is what makes these spaces both beautiful and functional to meet our clients’ needs. But sometimes, there are challenges that don’t have a ready-made solution for us to provide. At blocHaus Lab, we see that as an opportunity to create bespoke solutions that are tailored perfectly to the task at hand! We often do this through custom furniture pieces, either by modifying an existing product or by designing an original piece to meet the client’s needs.
At our Sparrow Coffee project in Naperville, we did both! blocHaus worked with a furniture manufacturer to modify an existing bar stool design, and we partnered with a local millworker to produce fully-custom communal tables. See below for an insider look at the process behind these custom furniture items!

LAB | Custom Branding
At blocHaus LAB, we work closely with clients to develop meaningful concepts for their projects. This often goes beyond the interiors and extends into creating unique and customized brands - here’s an insider look at part of the branding process for Sparrow Coffee:
We collaborated with our clients to design the Sparrow Coffee logo and signage
Beyond creating the logo, we also designed their cups and product packaging to perfectly coordinate with the rest of the branding and interior design!
As part of both the design work and branding process, we created custom brass art pieces to reflect the business’ name and brand - the final result is a beautiful sparrow feature wall!

Benjamin Moore announced their color of the year and it is Aegean Teal 2136-40. It is a really beautiful muted teal with just a hint of green. Instead of telling you to use it, I am going to let these inspiration boards do the talking!
