Fall Colors Introduction -------------------------------

fallcolors1.jpgWelcome, everyone, to our Fourth Annual Fall Colors Sharing & Contest. We're looking for the most beautiful & colorful home in the world and sharing all of the great ideas we get with our readers. This year we're amping things up and hoping to do things better than ever. There are two basic phases, the Sharing Phase and the Voting Phase...

1. Sharing Phase - you comment, judges decide

The 40 best, completed entries will be posted on a daily basis for three weeks. You can view them all at anytime via our new, improved contest pages under ALL ENTRIES. During this time your comments are VERY IMPORTANT as our six judges will be choosing 16 finalists from each region based on comments and their own colorful opinion.

2. Voting Phase - you vote till you drop

Starting October 20th, finalist voting will begin on a daily basis through our new bracketed voting system, which will pit our 16 finalists against one another until only one remains. Sound exciting? We hope so.

Best, Maxwell

This looks like a hotel. That's not a criticism - I like it a lot!

bem q eu senti familiaridade nos ambientes... agora vi q vc é do Rio
acho q vc é profissional... sua varanda tem jeito de mostra de decoração ou apartamento decorado
aliás, vi um vidro c/ um impresso colado, ao lado do aparador... parece referência de fornecedores
ñ estou questionando a validade da proposta
adorei seu trabalho
mas ñ me parece ser um único apartamento... o quarto e o lavabo destoam do conjunto; aliás, eu trocaria o rosa do lavabo por pérola
vc tem boas chances
aliás, acho q os post internacionais estão bem superiores aos norte-americanos (muito clichezinhos)
PARABÉNS !!!

Ana,

estou revendo detalhes dos seus ambientes
agora começo a achar q é um apartamento só
à primeira vista, o quarto me pareceu mais rústico e menos eclético q as salas... agora vejo q há elementos rústicos e "antigos" nas salas também
ainda aco q o rosa ñ funciona bem no lavabo... como vc fez uma base branca em todos os cômodos, acho q o branco ficaria bem no lavabo... o toque de cor ficaria a cargo das pastilhas, bancada, moldura do espelho, etc.

estou torcendo por você... e ñ é por bairrismo... já tinha gostado antes de ver de onde vc era

;-P
