Mathew Devendorf draws, filters, and re-configures the substance of the world into his designs to create novel perceptions of seemingly familiar things. His work blends the spatial sensibilities of architecture with the intimacy of human scale objects. He is interested in the spaces we inhabit, the objects we place in them, and how we interact with these objects. For him, design is a way to constantly explore and cross disciplines. Design is a method in which multiple lenses are used to view the same thing in different ways. Along with design, Mathew has a passion for drawing comics that push the boundaries of sequential art. He is interested in the ability of the comics medium to communicate a narrative, as well as the untrodden territories and potential it has to offer. Recently, he has worked with CB2 to design numerous pieces of furniture and home accessories for a special collection, which is scheduled to come out in early 2016. Mathew holds a Bachelor of Architecture [BArch] from the Illinois Institute of Technology and a Master of Design in Designed Objects [MDes] from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.mathewdevendorf.com
