Everything Is Awesome with Houzz

The secret's out! We can finally share the news: Houzz contacted us a month ago about doing a video project showcasing Jeff’s house and the Lego Lounge for their new HouzzTV platform. Of course, we said, "Yes, please!" Check out the shorter video here, and a bonus longer one over on Houzz.

We've been keeping a secret for a few weeks but we can finally share the news! Houzz contacted us a month ago about doing a video project showcasing Jeff's house and the Lego Lounge for their new HouzzTV platform.

We immediately said yes and they spent two full days filming the house, the Lego Lounge, Jeff and Chris with the boys and the Seattle area. They got so much footage, they surprised us with TWO VIDEOS! We are so impressed with the quality – it's amazing to have such a professional view into one of our most popular projects.

Below is the shorter video focusing on the Lego Lounge. You can click here to see the full story and the longer video featuring the whole house. Enjoy!

Use Your Words (Even When You Can’t)

Even in a profession where we quite literally draw pictures to communicate, words are incredibly important, too. Use them carefully, and precisely to get the job done right, and don’t forget that words can communicate very differently if they are said out loud versus written down, and there’s a time and place for both.

Channeling Experience: Storytelling in the Spaces We Design

Although we humans have invented new ways of sharing knowledge beyond the sharing of stories to one other over the firepit, storytelling is a key part of our culture. (Who doesn’t love a good story?) But beyond the stories we tell out loud, there is storytelling in spaces we design, too.

Unlikely Inspiration: The Strange Journeys of the Creative Process

A lot of times, unlikely inspiration solves your problems. To non-designers, it may seem a little crazy, but just as any odd thing can remind you of something else entirely, for designers, that experience often triggers their brains about a project they are working on, taking them on a mental journey towards a design solution.
