Series One: The Art of Glass in Interior Design - Creating a Clean, Fresh Look with Jazz & Riffs Hardware Collection
October 8, 2024 - Mesa, Arizona -
Jazz & Riffs Hardware Collection offers more than just functionality - it's about creating beauty and providing the final touch that completes any space. Our hand-cut glass hardware elevates interiors with elegance, giving a modern twist to classic design elements.
Key Benefits of Using Jazz & Riffs Hardware:
Today's interior design trends emphasize clean lines, open spaces, and the use of natural light. Our hand-cut glass hardware works in harmony with these trends, enhancing spaces with reflective surfaces that accentuate colors and textures. Each piece is designed to create a visual impact that draws attention and admiration. For instance, our 'Golden Eyes' forged glass hardware is an exquisite alternative to traditional brass hardware.
A Closer Look at 'Golden Eyes'
'Golden Eyes' glass combines brass metal grains with clear forged glass to create a shimmering, luxurious brass-tone effect. This color is enhanced by our unique glass patterns, giving depth and brilliance. Depending on your chosen finish, you can achieve either a softer, muted effect with our Satin Nickel stainless steel or a brighter, more striking look with Mirror Polished stainless steel.
Why choose 'Golden Eyes' glass over traditional brass? Our shimmering brass-tone glass adds a sophisticated glow, bringing warmth and depth to any room. Perfect for creating an elegant, understated shine that complements a variety of interiors.
Jazz & Riffs received its first patent in 2014, and since then, founder Alexa Milton has expanded the collection, drawing from her extensive experience in hospitality interior design. Each glass color, pattern, and size are designed for a specific use, making our hardware as functional as it is beautiful. When you see it and touch it, you'll fall in love - it's like we always say: 'It's Music for Your Eyes.'

Series Two: The Science of Glass Reflection
Series Two: The Science of Glass Reflection
Interaction of Light with Jazz & Riffs Hardware Coll.
Introduction
Jazz & Riffs Hardware is crafted to elevate interior spaces—whether it's a kitchen, bathroom, or closet cabinetry. Each piece of our glass hardware is designed to respond beautifully to various levels of light, from natural sunlight to incandescent bulbs, creating a dynamic interaction that enhances both the glass and its surroundings.
The Art of Reflection in Interior Design
Light plays a significant role in the perception of a space, and Jazz & Riffs glass reflects it in ways that complement other materials and objects in the room. By considering how light levels interact with their designs, interior designers can use our hardware to highlight and enrich the mood of a space.
Jazz Forged Glass: Subtle Glow and Contrast
Our Jazz forged glass in Purple Haze on white cabinetry, for instance, captures and pulls ambient light through its surface. This creates a soft glow that accentuates neutral tones and adds depth to surrounding finishes. The Purple Haze hue adapts to the room's light conditions, revealing layers of texture and a reflective richness that draws the eye.
Riffs Forged Glass: Sparkle, Movement, and Purple Haze Depth
In contrast, our Riffs forged glass in Purple Haze offers a vibrant sparkle that adds energy to any design. Its shimmering surface catches light in a way that brings a touch of radiance, even under low lighting. With a smooth yet dynamic pattern, Riffs glass reflects and disperses light at different angles, creating an engaging visual effect that invites closer inspection.
Creating Mood and Character in Your Interiors
Both the Jazz and Riffs glass patterns bring personality, depth, and movement to interior designs. By selecting the ideal hardware and coordinating light levels, designers can achieve a desired mood that transforms the look and feel of the space.
Sustainable Luxury in Design
In addition to its aesthetic impact, Jazz & Riffs hardware is crafted from sustainable materials, including recycled glass and stainless steel. These components ensure that our hardware not only meets high standards of luxury and durability but also contributes to the longevity and environmental sustainability of interior designs.

Another Perfect Fit! Jazz & Riffs and Chan's Place
August 23, 2017 - Woodinville, WA -
I was just visiting Woodinville, WA and had dinner at a restaurant called Chan's Place | Cuisine of China. Chan's is amazing, they serve upscale, traditional Chinese food but with a menu that has more fresh and stylized entrees.
The Chan's advocate using only the finest ingredients and the freshest produce available. Their cooks use low-cholesterol vegetable oil and imported herbs and spices to create their fresh and modern dishes.
But enough with the food! The look of the restaurant is stunning. It stays clean and beautiful day after day, and their two locations have been around for over 30 years. They've utilized Jazz & Riffs Hardware for all their cabinetry in the main dining areas, topping off the modern and luxurious feel.
Chan's Place is truly a restaurant that likes to stay current and deserves attention. Next time you're in the neighborhood, check it out!

Matching Glass Hardware to Interior Styles - Minimalist and Modern to Eclectic and Traditional
The world of interior design is rich with diverse styles, each offering unique aesthetics and philosophies. Jazz & Riffs Hardware complements these styles, bringing versatility and elegance to any space.
Minimalist Style
Minimalism found its footing in the late 1950s art world, later influencing fashion, lifestyle, and interior design. This style emphasizes emotional clarity and tranquility by stripping away the non-essential, both physically and metaphorically. Spaces are reduced to the most basic and simple elements, focusing on straight lines, geometric shapes, and a monochromatic palette.
Jazz & Riffs Hardware's Snow White and Stormy Black glass designs seamlessly integrate with minimalist interiors. Their simplicity adds to the aesthetic of essentials-only spaces, enhancing serenity and focus. The monochromatic tones of these hardware pieces beautifully complement minimalist environments that rely on whites, beiges, and greys to create a serene and tranquil atmosphere.
Modern Style
Modern interior design is timeless and forms the foundation for many of today's most popular looks. Emerging in the early 20th century as part of the Modernist art movement, it breaks away from traditional forms and conventions. Architects and designers like Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe pioneered this style, promoting clean lines and the absence of unnecessary details.
Jazz & Riffs Hardware reflects this ethos with long pull designs that echo the elegance of Modernist principles. Our timeless color options complement modern interiors, serving as foundational hues for any palette. The sleek, functional designs resonate with the enduring appeal of modern spaces.
Eclectic Style
Eclectic design harmoniously blends varied elements, creating a unique and personalized aesthetic. Over 30% of homeowners express a keen interest in incorporating eclectic elements into their spaces, highlighting the style's adaptability and charm.
Jazz & Riffs Hardware embraces eclecticism with its bold 'Square Pulls,' available in 11 colors. Whether featuring the jazz-stacked glass or the smooth, ribbed riffs designs, these pulls and knobs make statement pieces that bring diverse design elements together. This collection allows homeowners to express individuality while maintaining cohesiveness.
Traditional Style
Rooted in 18th- and 19th-century European decor, traditional interior design evolves subtly to incorporate modern elements. Features like large kitchen islands and expanded cabinetry call for versatile hardware options.
Jazz & Riffs Hardware meets these demands with its mix-and-match capabilities. Offering various sizes and styles, our glass hardware provides bold color options to create a classic yet updated 'traditional' look. This flexibility aligns perfectly with transitional style, blending traditional and contemporary elements into a harmonious whole.

Jazz & Riffs Hardware is more than just a functional element in your space; it's a design statement.
