Room for Improvement
The Challenge?
Room & Board and Dwell.com joined forces to fix your living room woes. When you look around your living room, what do you see? Saggy sofas? Cacophonies of clutter? Dearth of light and laughter? Don't be embarrassed—anyone who says that they wouldn't want to revamp their quarters into a modern wonderland is a lying liar. But never fear! Whatever the problem, it's nothing that $10,000 worth of Room & Board furnishings, fabrics and finishes won't fix. All we ask is that you snap a couple shots of yourself inside your abode, and describe just why it is that your pad needs a modern reboot. Not only will one grand prize winner get a boatload of loot, they'll also receive a visit from a Room & Board Visual Specialist, who will give expert advice on how to make the most of their space, one piece of fabulous furniture at a time.
