2020 DWR Champagne Chair Contest™

Entry Deadline: January 5, 2020
Champagne Chair Contest

General Information

To enter, create a miniature chair using only the foil, label, cage and cork from no more than two champagne bottles. Five (5) winners will receive a Design Within Reach Gift Card.

Prizes will be awarded in four categories: Most Original, Best Likeness, the Tiny Bubbles Prize and the Pommery Prize. If your chair resembles a design that already exists, it will automatically be placed in the Best Likeness category.

CATEGORY DEFINITIONS

MOST ORIGINAL – This is your chance to impress by creating a chair unlike anything we’ve ever seen. That might mean it’s crazy cool or shockingly simple, but either way it has to be authored by you, not borrowed from another designer from the past or present. Note: A toilet chair is entered every year, and it never wins – think outside the outhouse.

BEST LIKENESS – Celebrate your passion for a chair that already exists in the real world by creating your own miniature version. Whether it’s an Eames Lounge Chair or an Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair or some other fabulous classic, dazzle us by creating the best likeness of the chair you love.

Create a chair out of the foil, label, cage and cork from no more than two champagne bottles.
