The Rules:

What apartments are eligible?

1. You can live anywhere in the world, but your apartment must be no more than 850 square feet and it must be your primary residence.

2. It doesn’t matter if you own, rent or even sublet your apartment.

3. If you are a professional designer and designed your entry, you must live in it at the time of submission.

• your favorite element,
• a favorite resource,
• and your pitch: What is the advantage of SMALL? (100 word maximum).

In addition, please prepare to send us:

Question: I live in multi-bedroom apartment that is over 850 sq. feet with roommates, but only have decorating reign over my bedroom and the public rooms rooms which total less than 850 square feet. Does this sound like a valid entry?

You should have timed the entry deadline to be shortly after the end of the Cure. You might get a couple more entries!
