Pool House Winners

Winner: Crysdawn “Our New Jacuzzi for the Pool House”

The neural colors of this room really let the blue ocean shine through. The different hues and textures of the wood really give it depth. And of course you need a pile of fresh fruit to keep your energy up. Great job.

Lu-Anne “Pool House Fun”

What a cool, fun room. Lots of bright colors to keep the energy going. The flooring is one of my favorite touches. Of course you need a supply of surf boards if you are living on the beach.

mountainalive “Blue Pool House”

Blue like the ocean, white like the clouds. This room is so chic.  I love the addition on the different throw pillows and the dark brown of the chairs really gives it elegance.

DDH Community winner: photo513 “Patriotic Pool House”

Simple, fresh and clean. Great use of the different hues of blue with pops of ruby-red pillows.  I love that there are a lot of different sitting areas. Great for entertaining.

Congrats to all the winners and thank you all for participating.

Rescue Japan Winners

Congrats to Debbie McLaney our Community winner. What Camille Styles had to say ” I’m really drawn to the balanced feel of this room. The white used throughout provides a feeling of serenity, while the red rug in the center grounds the entire room.”

Congrats to Drilllady our Full House winner. Comments “The touches of red in each room of the house provide a great feeling of consistency. There’s a fantastic sense of flow throughout the spaces, but every room has a little surprise that gives it just enough character.”

Congrats to Flitsj our Single Room winner. “Gazing at this space makes me want to run a hot bath and camp out for the day! There’s such a feeling of serenity and balance in the space, and I love how the designer gave a nod to Japan through the Asian-inspired simplicity of the room.” Camille noted.

All of our winners will have a donation made in their name to Global Giving to help aid the tragedy in Japan. Thank you all for participating and as always our thoughts are with the people of Japan.
