Winner: Color Me Impressed, Round Two
The competition was stiff for Round Two of Color Me Impressed, our design competition centered around color theory. The submission that impressed us best was...
"Masculine Modern with a Flair for the Eccentric" by Christy Biberich
Designer's Statement:
At first I was a bit concerned about the muse photo. I thought, "hmm, who would wear that?" The video and interview were what turned me around though. I do love the concept of making a statement with your space and therefore why not your clothing too. I ended up loving this palette that originally I thought was just too over the top! I would drench each wall in a different vibrant color. Neutrals? Who needs them? Here in this room, navy and red actually become the "neutrals" for the space and it seems like everything just goes seamlessly with them. Since the color is so bold, clean, striking lines work best and except for the beautifully busy Adler art, everything else is unique yet simple. This space definitely has a sense of originality, just like the man that would live here I'm sure!
Congratulations to Christy, who wins a $1,000 gift card to Home Depot, and a big thanks to each person that submitted a creation. For those of you who are itching to get in on all of this colorful action, you've got one more chance to make a splash—Round Three is now on! Enter now for your chance to win!
