Disclaimers, trademark notices, and intellectual property information

Trademark Disclaimer

Decoblok is an independent manufacturer of decorative concrete blocks inspired by mid-century modern architectural designs from the 1960s and 1970s. Our products are authentic reproductions of historical architectural elements that were commonly produced during that era.

All product names, trademarks, registered trademarks, service marks, or registered service marks mentioned on this website are the property of their respective owners. Decoblok is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any third-party trademark owners. Any reference to third-party trademarks is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply any affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement.

Design & Intellectual Property

The decorative concrete block designs produced by Decoblok are based on historical architectural patterns and geometric shapes that were widely used in mid-century construction. These designs include, but are not limited to, peace symbols, geometric letters, circular patterns, and diamond grids—all of which were common architectural elements during the 1960s and 1970s.

To the best of our knowledge, the designs we reproduce are either:

  • In the public domain due to age and widespread historical use
  • Historical architectural elements not subject to current copyright protection
  • Generic geometric or symbolic patterns that cannot be exclusively claimed
  • Our own original interpretations and implementations of period-appropriate styles

If any design we produce resembles a currently protected trademark, trade dress, or copyrighted work, such resemblance is purely coincidental and unintentional. We do not claim any ownership of third-party intellectual property, nor do we intend to infringe upon any valid rights.

Peace Symbol Usage

The peace symbol (☮) is a widely recognized universal symbol that has been in the public domain since its creation in 1958 by Gerald Holtom for the British nuclear disarmament movement. It is not protected by trademark or copyright and is freely used worldwide as a cultural and historical icon.

Our use of peace symbol designs in decorative concrete blocks is consistent with its historical application in 1960s-1970s architecture and does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement by any organization.

Letter & Geometric Pattern Designs

Our geometric letter blocks and pattern designs utilize standard alphabetic characters and basic geometric shapes (circles, squares, diamonds, grids, etc.) arranged in architectural applications. These are fundamental design elements that have been used in construction and architecture for decades and are not subject to exclusive proprietary claims.

Any similarity to existing branded designs is unintentional. Our products are inspired by the general aesthetic of mid-century modern architecture rather than any specific contemporary brand or trademarked design.

Decoblok operates as an independent small-batch manufacturer and is not affiliated with, licensed by, sponsored by, or endorsed by any automobile manufacturer, corporate brand, or design house. We do not claim any relationship with or endorsement from any third-party companies or brands.

Our products are sold as standalone decorative architectural elements and are not authorized, licensed, or official products of any third-party brand or trademark holder.
