CB2 in CHICAGO COLLABORATES WITH SCHOOL OF THE ART INSTITUTE GRADUATE STUDENTS
In 2014 - 2015 CB2 collaborated with 12 Graduate Students at School of the Art Institute (SAIC) located in Chicago, Il. My son Mathew Devendorf was one of the 12 chosen candidates who worked directly with CB2. CB2 asked the students: "What does live well mean to you?". Mathew designed 4 pieces for them. 3 pieces were chosen to be produced and sold online and in CB2 stores.
As of this post, the items designed by the students are featured in CB2's front window display.
Matt designed the Mountain Caddy, featuring 5 pieces which can be used in multiple ways; for the desk, flowers, utensils, art supplies, whatever works. It sells for $15.95.
The 2nd piece Matt designed was the Watering Carafe. It is a carafe which includes a spout for pouring. It can also be used a variety of ways; watering plants, pitcher, vase, wine decanter. It retails for $14.95.
The 3rd item which has been manufactured is the Chess and Checkers Table. While it's primary purpose is for games, when not in use it can hold a lamp, books, objects of art. It's easy to play games at this table and it does not take up much room in the home and has a drawer for storing game pieces or a deck or cards. Price: $399.00.
There are a total of 20 pieces in this SAIC collection.
Stop by the CB2 store at 800 W. North Avenue, Chicago, Illinois to view and purchase these well thought out household items or online ordering is available.
