Spring 2021 One Room Challenge™ Introductions
Get ready – the nineteenth season of the One Room Challenge™ is here and we’re excited to be an official sponsor of yet another round! This widely anticipated event takes place biannually every April and October, and continues to grow as an incredible celebration of creativity and inspiration
Each round, twenty design influencers are selected to be a part of the challenge, with the goal of transforming a space of their choosing in just eight weeks. This season, we’ve partnered with eight of these designers who will be using our tile in their remodels.
Now, it’s time for the fun part! We’re thrilled to introduce you to the amazing designers we’ll be working with this season, and show you a sneak peek of their design plans that will be taking place over the next eight weeks.
