BLŌK focuses on working with cultural and commercial clients as well as not-for-profit organizations locally and internationally. Drawing from the two partners' individual cultural backgrounds from India and Europe, they work towards creating strong, project-specific design solutions for their clients often exploring design synergies between eastern and western cultural influences, resulting in a unique Indo-European design aesthetic that is specially tailored to cater to a global audience. BLŌK also passionately pursues its self initiated projects, with these projects often providing a strong source of inspiration for the studio's commercial work. Vaishnavi and Žarko are graduate alumni of Parsons, the New School for Design, New York.
