Build Your Own Home Bar With Life-Sized, Lego-Inspired Bricks
If you think IKEA is for home improvement DIYers, you’ve been living a lie. Because nothing says self-reliance like sipping a few G&Ts at the sleek, modular home bar you built by hand – with giant multi-colored Legos.
Now the home bar of your dreams can come to life thanks to EverBlock, a New York City-based company that specializes in the manufacture of life-sized, Lego-inspired building bricks.
Just like the miniature version, these foot-long blocks can be easily assembled and disassembled, a feature that’s ideal for creating temporary event spaces. Holiday-themed bar, anyone? According to the company’s website, EverBlock can also be used to create furniture, room dividers, even disaster relief shelters – and a whole lot of nostalgia along the way.
Founder and CEO Arnon Rosan is no stranger to the world of modular furniture. The serial entrepreneur is listed on several global patents, including several modular, interconnecting flooring and roadway systems and a unique manufacturing technology related to plastic molding and large-part manufacturing.
“I hope that EverBlock opens up opportunities for designers and inventors, both professionals and individuals, and provides the basis for new types of innovation and creation,” Rosan writes on the EverBlock website.
Currently, EverBlock’s online offerings include interlocking 12-inch, 6-inch, and 3-inch blocks, plus a foot-long finishing cap in a variety of colors. The company also offers connector clips, hanging clips, reinforcement rods, and other accessories to help builders reinforce their homemade structures for everyday use.
And reinforce them you must. Because once you’ve perched the contents of your liquor cabinet atop an oversized version of your favorite childhood play set, it will be too hard going back to stodgy “adult” decor.
