Black + Blum
Black+Blum – Design with Purpose, Functionality, and Respect for Nature
Black+Blum is a London-based design brand founded by industrial designer Dan Black. The brand is driven by a clear philosophy: to create products that are long-lasting, thoughtfully functional, and aesthetically timeless. Each item is developed through rigorous design exploration and prototyping to ensure that it is not only visually appealing but genuinely useful in everyday life.
Inspired by Scandinavian minimalism and Japanese craft precision, Black+Blum products balance clean design, natural materials, and intuitive usability. Their approach encourages a more sustainable lifestyle by choosing high-quality, reusable products that reduce dependence on single-use plastics.
