Unheardible

D-bue is a special kind of music competition: every two years, selected students from German music academies present their individual artistic ideas in a series of concerts. Bloom has developed a customised communication concept for this special format. The focus is on a dynamic sound sculpture created from a 3D sound visualisation. It takes the human ear as its starting point and moulds itself along the sound logo developed for the competition as a symbol of the experimental, the unheard. The neologism Unheardible complements the visual and ensures visibility and recognisability.

Kadowakamatsu

The Kadowakamatsu Corporate Website redefines real estate communication by positioning property as cultural infrastructure. Integrating regional context, custom typography, and a restrained grid system, the design transforms a corporate website into a narrative platform. It articulates urban value beyond pricing models through a spatial and editorial user experience, enabling multidirectional navigation and layered engagement with text, image, and projects, reframing how urban value is perceived.

TMD Journal

TMD Journal examines type design not as visual styling but as a structured system that organizes meaning. In response to the widespread use of digital fonts as surface level assets, the publication repositions typography as a medium for constructing thought and communication. Each chapter presents an original type system through its conceptual premise, structural logic and applied context, showing how typographic decisions translate into form and use. The journal provides a framework for understanding type as an active component in branding and communication.

Beyond the Green Hills

Beyond the Green Hills is a renovation of a Huizhou style residence in Huangshan, Anhui Province, China. The design follows a light intervention approach. White walls and dark tiles are preserved, window proportions are adjusted, and eaves and lattice details are added. A glass volume in the courtyard links the buildings and brings in light, air and greenery. Split level lofts enrich the annex. Detailed surveying and 3D scanning supported a digital model used to plan structural changes. The total building area is 1,432 square metres.

Bench

Altered Heritage

This sculptural bench originates from parts of a damaged Italian console dating back to the early 20th century. Rather than restoring the missing sections, the design reinterprets the fragmented form through bold material interventions. Hand-carved beechwood is combined with Rosso Levanto marble and satin stainless steel to create a hybrid composition. The result is a functional seat that retains traces of its historical origin while presenting itself as a contemporary collectible object.

Suzumushi

Sounds of Suzumushi is a series of woven bamboo pavilions that reinterpret traditional basketry as inhabitable architecture. Using the Kagome weaving technique, long bamboo strips are interlaced to form lightweight, self supporting enclosures without mechanical fasteners. Digital modeling and structural simulation translate tacit craft knowledge into scalable construction, enabling forms from intimate seating to a pavilion for small gatherings. Filtered light, tactile surfaces and integrated sound create a calm sensory environment, renewing bamboo weaving as a contemporary social space.
