SAIC Paradox Nesting Tables - Set of Three


International home furnishings retailer CB2 collaborated with students at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) to launch a collection of 15 furniture and home décor accessories that organize and save space. Twelve graduate and undergraduate students from SAIC’s Industry Projects class worked with interior designers in a year-long program to produce the line that responds to the trend of “micro-living,” or the occupation of small spaces.

The pieces—which include furniture, lighting, textiles, and accessories—are available for purchase in stores and online.
