… we moved from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign back to our hometown of Chicago. As most recent graduates can probably attest to, we had limited budgets for our friends and families celebrations. Frustrated by the impersonality of buying cheaper, off the shelf gifts, we decided to design and handcraft keepsakes. Soon thereafter we received requests to design custom trophies, plaques, event centerpieces and other products. We rose to the challenge becoming BluRenew.
We design, fabricate, hand assemble and package our products in Chicago ensuring a custom experience from inception to delivery. We consult with individuals and businesses to discover and express value to branding offering full-service, comprehensive design services. We execute events from accessories to full planning services to bring focus to brand. We repurpose, upcycle and use modest materials wherever possible. We partner with clients to express a unique vision for brands, events, and gifts.
