I recently had the amazing opportunity to have one of my designs turned into a notebook and a pencil pouch, and sold in Barnes & Noble nationwide. I entered my design to a Call for Entries through Working Class Studio, which is a part of the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). I was notified about a month later that I was one of several students selected, and after a couple rounds of revisions, our designs went into production.
My design is based on birds sitting on telephone wires, and uses bird footprints as a background pattern. The notebook includes an elastic band that holds the book shut, or can be used as a bookmark.
Barnes and Noble worked with several students from SCAD to create a line of bags, notebooks, journals, sketchbooks, and pencil pouches. The line launched mid July 2008, and is available in-stores and online.
