Bumble launched its Bumble Hive LA, a two-month pop-up on Melrose Place, where members came to work, network and mingle. The space was created as a co-working, collaborative environment where ideas were shared and connections were made. 

Guests enjoyed a series of panel talks with experts in their fields ranging from entrepreneurship and technology to health and wellness. Opening weekend kicks off with a Conversation with Gwyneth Paltrow and Food Therapist, Shira Lenchewski.

Designed  to embody Bumble’s digital experience in a physical form, the hive draws inspiration from three central elements - the new Bumble headquarters in Austin, the modern Los Angeles design sensibility and the concept of a buzzing bee hive.

Combining a hexagonal hive pattern with custom backlit mirrors and floor to ceiling shelves to bring depth, reflectivity, motion and a personalized feel to the space, we worked with Bumble on all aspects of the fully-custom Bumble Hive LA from strategy, to creative and design, to production and fabrication.
