The Brief
Design needs
Most competitor books have pictures of 'barndo' exteriors or partial exterior and partial design plan. I am not a fan of this look and would like to have an image of a warm inviting interior instead, perhaps of a wide open living room space witha fireplace and a kitchen in the background. Something that the reader can look at and imagine themselves being in that room. I would also be open to having small inserts of exterior images carefully placed. The other thought I had was to do a 'before' and 'after' where there are two images of the same structure/room showing how it started and how it looks once the renovations are completed. There are some sample images demonstrating these two concepts attached.
What to avoid
I want to avoid having a large image of a building exterior in the middle of the page. Also, please do not use squiggly fonts.

Choose a design you love and work closely with the winning designer to refine and finalize your design. After that they’ll supply the files needed for print or digital use. Full copyright is all yours.
You’ll get all the image files you need to put your design anywhere. This includes the original, editable file, as well as a preview version you can open on virtually any device.
If you know exactly what you’re looking for, it makes sense to work with an individual freelance designer. In that case, you can search through our designers’ portfolios and find your perfect match.
We think contests are a super fun way to get design.
