Today is the deadline for entries, so it's your last chance to send us in 5 great photos of your colorful room. If you'd like to be the one joining Maxwell in NYC this Spring for a Design Shopping weekend, here's everything you need to know...

... this years Room for Color contest, here are a few things you'll want to know:
We are asking for just 5 great photos of a single beautiful room. If you have a wonderful, colorful room in your home (no matter what the size!) we'd like to see it. The grand prize is a fabulous and fun design shopping weekend in NYC. The winner will stay at the Maritime Hotel, join Maxwell for breakfast and a day of design shopping and will have $1000 to spend on new goodies for their home. The early bird catches the worm. The first 25 entries will receive a copy of Apartment Therapy Presents. Photo quality counts! Editors will choose the best-looking entries to feature in the contest. Check out tips for taking good interior shots right here. U.S. entries will be organized into divisions based on location. It's East vs. West vs. South vs. North in a battle for the most beautiful room in each division and then, finally, in the country! International entries are also welcome and will compete in their own division.
Sound good? Get out your camera and get ready to share your colorful style - all details and the entry form are right here.
Good luck!

Awesome.
what a great prize! Can't wait to see all the entries.
This may be a dumb question, but who is Maxwell??
Maxwell would be the creator of this site! :-)
i hope my new sofa arrives in time for the deadline!
:-)
i do so enjoy this contest. bring it, people. bring it.
Fall Color Contest is already here - as I get older, time seems to fly so much faster.
Would love to win the design shopping weekend with Maxwell. However, my interior tends to skew toward neutrals. But, I really do enjoy this contest, and look forward to seeing the entries.
Can't wait. I really hope it isn't about the brighter and bolder... that can be kinda cheap, you know? Bring on the great hues and combinations! Time for me to get my learnin' on!
I want to enter the contest. What if my room is an open plan entryway/kitchen/living? Does it still qualify as one room?
Awesome prize! I'm moving this month and I have big plans for lots of color for next year's contest!
Sounds fun! I think I will finally get it together and enter this time around.
Is my memory failing me, or do muted palettes tend to win this one?
Man, I'm bummed ... I've been working forever to get my whole place into a cool color flow so I can enter and now it's just a ROOM contest, which doesn't work for my layout - the whole place together is what makes it color fun. Ho hum. I guess I missed my chance for the color contest. ;-(
ooh im excited to see the entries and get some ideas for good color combos!
Guess I'll have to wait for next year, as my house isn't put together just one month after moving in. I hope to get some great inspiration from this year's entrants, though!
Wow such nice colors, reminds me of a rainbow but instead of outside it's indoors.
You say batman I saw Vawncast
alas, my new sofa will not be here in time. no use sending you 5 photos of a mostly-empty room even if it is painted in a fabulous shade of orange!
:-(
next year...
