Every great hospitality space begins with an unforgettable first impression. Designed as the centerpiece of the Marriott atrium, this custom ribbon chandelier transforms the lobby into an immersive experience. Flowing layers of translucent white and blue ribbons capture and diffuse light, creating a sculptural installation that feels different from every angle. Suspended over multiple stories, the fixture was custom fabricated to complement the architecture while bringing movement, color, and warmth to the space.

In partnership with IIDA What makes great design? According to Dax Pettibone, Product Designer at 3form, it starts with intentionality. "Great design doesn't happen by accident; it is the result of deliberate decisions made at every level." In the latest installment of our Design Leaders series, Pettibone shares how craftsmanship, thoughtful execution, and embracing constraints have shaped his approach to design. He also discusses the future of additive manufacturing, creating products with lasting value, and the objects that continue to inspire his work.

For decades, we've thought of glass as the material that brings light into a space. But what happens when concrete, wood, and metal start doing the same? A recent article from Architect Magazine explores how material innovation is redefining what's possible in the built environment—and we're proud to see Varia highlighted as an early example of "translucent wood" technology. As architects and designers continue pushing the boundaries of performance and aesthetics, materials are no longer limited by traditional expectations. They're becoming tools for shaping light, experience, and connection in entirely new ways.

We introduced our Arboretum Collection this spring, and continue to bring natural textures into commercial interiors through organic interlayers, digital printing capabilities, and etched glass — offering designers more flexible ways to create calming, nature-connected spaces. Commercial Construction & Renovation notes, "What stands out is the balance: botanical beauty, material performance, and architectural precision. From healthcare and education to hospitality and workplace environments, solutions like this show how design can support both function and well-being." A thoughtful reminder that bringing nature indoors doesn’t have to be literal — it can be layered, abstracted, and deeply intentional. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eB6yyRMw

Nostalgia is shaping the future of design. This Canadian Interiors piece explores why we’re gravitating back toward 100-year-old hues: warmer, richer, more saturated colors that feel human, grounded, and personal after years of cool minimalism and digital sameness. It’s a reminder that color isn’t just aesthetic — it carries memory and a sense of place. In architecture and interiors, looking back can be a powerful way to make spaces feel more alive today. What old-world colors are you seeing make a comeback? Read the article: https://lnkd.in/gQXgfF7a Ryan Smith

At 3form, we’re proud to participate in IIDA’s Design Your World program, an initiative that introduces students to design-related professions they may not otherwise have the opportunity to explore.
