HIVE & HOLLOW
Commercial design work for a flower-wine-gift shop in Wisconsin. After 12 years in their flagship location, Hive & Hollow, a sustainably-focused flower shop, was looking to expand to a larger space downtown that would allow for the addition of a wine bar to their business. I was commissioned to help with the interior architecture of the space, including a plan for the layout, interior finishes, furniture sourcing, shelving, and lighting design. What was an empty 3,000-square-foot space in the heart of historic downtown was converted into a bustling hub for the community that feels like it’s always been there. Highlights include the sourcing of a salvaged 21-foot art deco bar, vintage furniture purchased at auction, and a 10-foot tall bookshelf built on-site from salvaged barn wood. The resulting space offers an inviting interior that honors the history of the space and the evolving identity of the business. Additional work includes the redesign of their website, which is linked here.
