DWR Champagne Chair Contest™
Pop, fizz, clink! Now through January 7, craft a mini modern chair from champagne corks and enter for your chance to win up to $1,000 in prizes from DWR.
How to enter
Step 1:
Create a chair using only the foil, cap, cage, cork, and label from no more than two bottles of champagne, sparkling wine, or sparkling cider. The chair can be your own original design or a likeness of a chair offered in DWR’s assortment.
Step 2:
Snap a photo of your chair using a sheet of white paper as your background, ideally in natural light. (Zoom in so your entire background is white.) Make sure your image is crisp, clear and shows off your chair’s details.
Step 3:
Post a photo of your chair to Instagram using #dwrchampagnechair between December 10, 2024, and January 7, 2025, and follow and tag @designwithinreach. Or send it to us via direct message on Instagram or email: [email protected].
Design for a cause
For each champagne chair entry, MillerKnoll Foundation will donate $50 (up to $20,000 total) to Docomomo US, a nonprofit organization that supports the documentation and conservation of modernist architecture – buildings, sites, and neighborhoods – nationally.
Founded in 1995, Docomomo US comprises regional chapters that champion modern architecture and design, seeking to shape vibrant communities around a shared modern heritage.
