CW&T is the art + design practice of Che-Wei Wang and Taylor Levy. With backgrounds in Architecture, Film, and Computer Science, the duo met at NYU ITP where they began their scale and medium agnostic approach to making.

Wang and Levy lecture extensively on design and technology as a creative medium. They have taught courses on time, electronics, hardware, programming, inflatables and morphology at Pratt Institute, New York University, and the School for Poetic Computation. Their pedagogy extends into the home/studio where they host office hours to lend a hand or offer insight to anyone interested in figuring out how to make something themselves.

CW&T is the recipient of the 2022 National Design Award for Product Design from Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum.

CW&T live and work in their Brooklyn-based studio and prototyping shop along with their two children, Pau and Tree.

ABOUT THE MODERATORS

Hunter Craighill: Co-Founder, Chief Design Officer, and the name behind Craighill, Hunter has long fostered an obsession with the creation of—and story behind—well-designed objects. He studied architecture before shifting to product design, leading hard goods design at Best Made Co. before founding Craighill in 2015.

Kevin Chee: Director of Design and Craighill Instagram sensation, Kevin has helped shape the brand’s visual language through countless product designs since 2021. With previous experience in the architectural and furniture worlds—spending time on both the factory floor and in the sales showroom—Kevin naturally bridges the gap between design and business.
