DWR Champagne Chair Contest Winners Announced
Filed under: Art
Design Within Reach has announced the results of their annual Champagne Chair Contest, which invites would-be designers to come up with their own DWR-inspired creations using corks leftover from New Year's Eve champagne. The grand prize was just a $1,500 gift certificate to DWR, but the Veuve Clicquot-sponsored contest (and many of the corks, cages and foil wrappers were from Veuve Clicquot bottles) just might have given us a little peek into the work of some of the designers we could see in stores in a few years. Entries came in from all over the world, including Israel, Spain and Thailand, but the three top prizes all went to US entries (left to right, above):
- Grand Prize: Cantilever Block by Adam Weisberger of Louisville, Kentucky
- Second Prize: Kleeko Chair by Stacie Matrka of Columbus, Ohio
- Most Popular Award: Chair Squared by Edward Cristman of San Rafael, California
