LAST NIGHT at the Hotel DeBrett, architects and designers saw the Auckland launch of a new design competition by Cavalier Bremworth – The Twist Design Challenge. The beauty of this competition is, is that you don't really need to do any more work – they are asking to see designs that are designed and built. Here is what Cavalier Bremworth has to say about the competition:

Here's your chance to win bragging rights, an iPad, a very cool Saben leather and wool carpet satchel, PLUS the chance to win a cocktail party  for 50. The Twist Design Challenge is open to all New Zealand registered architects and interior designers.

HOW DO YOU ENTER?  Simple. Just submit any great looking residential or commercial projects where you have used Cavalier Bremworth carpet.  Deadline is 8 October 2010 for first round entries.

Upload some pics below, write some blurb about the project and of course why you just had to use the great 100% sustainable wool carpet from Cavalier Bremworth.  It's not a writing competition though, it's one to find some seriously great projects using our beautiful New Zealand wool carpet.

And another competition... this time for design work that hasn't even been built:

Cavalier Bremworth is a great proponent of New Zealand architecture and design. As well as the creation of this latest competition, they have also sponsored the AAA Cavalier Bremworth Design Awards for the past 19 years! The competition recognises unbuilt design work (and it's not limited to Auckland). One would assume there is probably a lot of that around at the moment, so put your hard work to good use and enter it. The prizes are definitely worth it – the total prize pool is valued at $10000.
