My name is Craig,
and I'm an industrial designer living in Chicago. I work
for gravitytank, a product, service and experience innovation
consulting firm. I also explore the independent designer/maker world under the name Craighton Berman.
My personal interests include independent music,
good design, vibrant urbanism, fixed-gear bicycling, contemporary
art, people watching, street photography, dynamic information,
innovative thought, conscious consumption, sociological
theory, quality food, dry wit, urban infrastructure,
rural landscape, new experiences, progressive thought,
massive change, subtle differences, human achievement,
and black coffee.
I'm idealistic. I don't
own a car by choice. I prefer supporting small & local
businesses. I believe variety and diversity is not just
the spice of life, but is what makes life worth living.
I think it's imperative to take an interest in what I
buy, how it's made, and where it goes when it's done being
used. I believe food is more than just sustenance, and
have a passionate interest in it. I love experiencing new things, learning about the world, bringing ideas to life, and dreaming about what could be.
