Hey Angelenos, Where You At? Enter Small Cool Now!

We've been having a great time receiving and posting entries from all over the world and across the Southwest, but have to admit we're a bit bummed that our very own home town is not representing. While New Yorkers and Chi-town residents are showing and proving their small space cred, LA residents have yet to prove there are plenty of us living in smaller spaces in the City of Angels, so we're calling you out LA! Did you know this year's contest has expanded square footage categories, so even modest size home owners can enter this year?

TEENY-TINY 300 Square Feet and under
TINY 600 Square Feet and under (but over 300 Square Feet)
LITTLE 900 Square Feet and under (but over 600 Square Feet)
SMALL 1,200 Square Feet and under (but over 900 Square Feet)
INTERNATIONAL All non-US entries (under 1,200 Square Feet)

We know there are plenty of LA homes, lofts and apartments that fall under 1,200 square feet, so enter by the 4/13 deadline and be in it to win it ("it" being one of four $2,000 gift card from Room&Board). Enter here.

i live in a "tiny" place - i just need to gather some photos.

Speaking only for myself, I am in the midst of taking advantage of the low rents in LA by selling stuff and looking for a cheaper place to move to. I'd love to participate ... in 6 months.

PS Love your site. Been trolling for three weeks. Today was the day to post.

haha, I'm going to try, Laura! I'd do it this weekend, except 3 months ago I thought it would be a good idea to book a trip to Vegas (you know, easter weekend and vegas go hand in hand!).
But I have until Monday, right? I'm really awesome at getting things done at the absolute last second (one of the perks of being a procrastinator, I guess).
