A new season has arrived, we’re celebrating the holidays with a QC Design School contest!
The holidays are all about creating warm, inviting spaces for friends and family to gather, and there’s never a better time to spruce up a boring living room! This year, you’ll be designing a new space for your clients to entertain and live in.
You don’t need to be a QC student in order to enter, everyone is welcome! And there will be an amazing prize for the winner!
For this contest, we’ll ask you to use Pinterest to create an inspirational mood board based on the provided color palette and client scenario listed below. You’ll be redesigning a basic living room to bring a pop of color and warmth to your client’s home. The name of your board should include your first name and the contest name.
The designer whose vision relates best to their client’s expectations will be selected as the winner!
Find out how to create a mood board on Pinterest at the link below!
Your client is a young couple, aged 27 and 28, who have recently moved into a bungalow. They have decided to host a holiday dinner for their family, and want to redecorate their plain white living room before the big event.
Your clients have a budget of $4,000 to spend on redesigning their living room, and have chosen the color palette below:
They have just sold their old furniture to help fund the redesign, so you will be in charge of selecting completely new furnishings to decorate their living room. Other than the color palette, your clients are open-minded to your creative vision of the room.
Create a mood board on Pinterest with inspiration and ideas for the couple’s new living room design. Your mood board does not need to translate directly, but it does need to provide solutions and considerations to the client scenario. Your mood board must contain at least 15 photos or “pins”.
Once complete, you can easily submit your entry by uploading a link to your Pinterest board using the entry form at the bottom of this page. Make sure to include at least 6 pins on your board! Entries will close on December 17th, 2017 at 11:59 (EST).
