I WON!

 A couple months ago submitted several logo designs for IIDA Illinois' logo contest. The board narrowed all of the logos down to 4 finalists that all members of the Illinois chapter were going to vote on. Two of the designs were mine, so I had a good chance of winning! Shortly after the voting I found out that mine was winning but that they had gotten some comments from downstate members that the designs only represented Chicago... So after many adjustments working with the board we finally got down to the final design! IIDA sent out an email this week announcing me as the winner! Yay! See the flyer here: FLYER The flyer also shows the final winning logo.

So, not only does my design get to be on all of the IIDA Illinois flyers, materials, website, etc, BUT I also won an Eames Molded Plastic Arm Chair with the Eiffel Tower/Wire Base!!! I am so excited because I am a lover of Eames furniture and design. If I could have all of my house filled with their furniture, I would!! This is such a great chair, comfortable and versatile. I am so excited that I will own one!
I am having trouble deciding what color to get though, so I haven't ordered it yet. Can't decide if I want to go with the classic and iconic red or if I should go more neutral and get white. Hmmm. I need to decide soon though! See the photos of the chair below:
