Architectural Digest Events & Contests

by Jennifer Chait on November 16th, 2007

There’s been some nice happenings at Architectural Digest lately. They have a fun video up with their latest open auditions for architects and designers — sort of like a mini reality show but architect based. I thought the video was interesting. You can vote for your favorites. There’s also information on how to RSVP for their second open audition in South Florida in January.

The cool contest:

Currently AD is running a random drawing book give away for their newest book, Private Views: Inside the World’s Greatest Homes. 10 winners and an easy sign up. (No purchase or anything like that). I want this book. It looks great. Some of the homes featured are not my style — more fancy contemporary but many are simply beautiful. I think it’ll be a nice book. Private Views features, among others…

Our old pal, the amazing Bart Prince.

Preston T. Phillips’ awe inspiring home.

Now don’t you want the book after seeing these two photos?

If not you can always enter and then send it to me if you win (just kidding) well, sort of kidding. Anyway, AD has a major drool worthy slide show featuring more clips from the book. See the slide show here.

    Wow, I put my first bid on a house today and I thought it had a GREAT room with vaulted ceilings. But, those pictures make my house look . . . well, still fabulous because I can afford it. Ha!

    Stopping by from Blog Fabulous to check out the new Lifestyle Channel neighbors.

    Good luck if you entered Marye :)

    Hey Tracee, I like Blog Fabulous; especially when you’re funny. I guess that’s most of the time. Yup, any house you can afford and make yours is pretty fab. Although, after working this blog my house expectations are so high I wonder if I’ll ever find my dream home. Congrats to you on your bid though and good luck.

    Yeah, after I worked for a travel magazine my expectations for hotel rooms got a little inflated. I’ve since come back down to earth. Thanks for saying I’m funny.
