CHICAGO CHESS SET
" THE WINDY CITY "
city chess, the battle begins with you!
For the ultimate chess game, battle your favorite city. Allow the architectural monuments of the city to work together towards checkmate while admiring the new typology. Buildings were carefully selected that not only represent the city, but that fit well into the game of chess. Each piece is 3D-printed, which means we start with a bed of nylon power that is harden with laser layer by layer, until the building is perfected.
