2020 has been anything but ordinary and the One Room Challenge is no exception to that. When the featured and guest participants alike signed on for the 6-week challenge, little did they know the rollercoaster of an experience they were in for.  

From a delay in commencement, to COVID related shipping delays and restrictions, to navigating weeks of social unrest, these interior designers displayed an abundance of flexibility and grace as they made their way towards the finish line. After 8 long weeks, the results are in and they were definitely worth the wait! Below are a few of the participants that we've selected to highlight:

Dwell by Cheryl

First up is Cheryl Luckett of Dwell by Cheryl Interiors. Cheryl revealed a revitalized and colorful kitchen that we absolutely love. In her own words, "I feel like I live at Disney World. For me this is the HAPPIEST place on earth." Which makes us all the more glad to have played a role in her kitchen transformation. Pictured below is Emtek's Melon Knob in Satin Brass:

Danielle and Michael of Clark + Aldine are super stars! They tackled their first floor open concept kitchen and dining space and the end result is spectacular. The french doors that lead to their office features Emtek's Round Knob with Modern Rectangular Rosette in Satin Brass as well as the 6" Flush Bolt in French Antique.

Design Maze

Tim Lam of Design Maze really blew it out of the ball park with his open concept kitchen and living room makeover. He created a soothing and tranquil modern space topped off with Emtek's Helios Lever and Cabinet Edge Pull both in Flat Black which contrasts beautifully with the neutral colors throughout the space. Also, who wouldn't mind that incredible view?

Coco & Jack

Steve and Alyssa Terpstra of Coco & Jack, yet another dynamic duo, placed Emtek hardware throughout their master bedroom renovation. Starting with their closet space they utilized Emtek's Cabinet Egg Knobs and Traditional Brass Robe Hooks in Unlacquered Brass. In their bathroom they creatively used another Cabinet Egg Knob to DIY their shower door! We are beyond impressed.

Other products used throughout the space include the Modern Brass Towel Bar, the Modern Brass Paper Holder, and the Modern Non-Keyed 9" Lockset with Round Knob in Flat Black.
