We had a great time at our second-ever design meetup last night. We've got a lot to report and tons of folks to thank. We'll start with the thanks...
Chicago Design Meetup: Thanks!
...to everyone at Tree Studios Design Within Reach for your hospitality, fantastic organization of the "Get Lit" competition and for making us feel like part of the family!
Pablo Pardo
To fellow judges Pablo Pardo (amazing lighting designer) and Andy Hall (School of the Art Institute, HallMFG), thanks for your kindness and enthusiasm for the judging process - it was fun! Wonderful to meet both of you, as well.
Two Winners: Brian Peters and Caroline Lindner
To all 60 entrants, 17 finalists and 6 winners - Thank you for your ingenuity and inspiring designs. It was a treat to see your work, which will remain on display for 2 weeks at Tree Studios for anyone who couldn't make it last night. (Another post to follow later all about the lighting competition)
And to everyone who attended our second meetup, thank you for coming out and supporting Apartment Therapy and the Get Lit competition. Hope you all had as good a time as we did - hope to see you again next time!
Be sure to join our official meetup group to stay in the loop for upcoming gatherings.

In my living room, I have that sofa, that coffee table, and (almost exactly) that lamp. Either i'm a design genius or INCREDIBLY unoriginal. I'm actually a bit creeped out by the 'replica'-ness of those photos.
On the other hand, looks like a fun party.

To Deeliscious: Haha. My living room has the sofa, coffee table, and lamp. I think we're probably just unoriginal, but at least we have good taste. :-p
Looks like a great party! :)
