📝Overview
Dear Homestyler, to make the design community more interesting and diverse, Homestyler has launched a brand new design challenge page as well as an upgraded challenge scheme.
You can click here to visit the page, view the ongoing and past challenges, and browse entry designs for each challenge!
We will hold constant interesting design challenges in categories of style, color, season, city, or holiday. And we will provide free memberships, rendering quotas, winner badges, etc. as prizes to give back to everyone's efforts and look forward to your participation! Just have fun, participate in the contests, practice your creativity, and enjoy the design challenges~
🕑Challenge Types and Frequency
Homestyler has two main interior design products:
📱——the Homestyler mobile app for both iOS and Android, that you could decorate rooms with 3D furniture at your fingertips
💻——the browser-based web 3D design tool, an all-in-one 3D interior design tool from floor planning, 3D decoration, 3D modeling, to image or video rendering.
On our Challenge page, you could use the "Tool" filter to view challenges for the web or app.
A monthly contest is held at the beginning of each month, and the winners will win great prizes. At the same time, we will also have bi-weekly competitions with different interesting themes and leave enough time for everyone to create. At the end of each year we will also hold an annual competition, so stay tuned!
📱For the mobile app community
Since it is more convenient to create 3D designs with mobile apps, the app community will have more challenges. There are 2-4 challenges going on at the same time every week. If you want to participate in these interesting challenges, please download our app to create~
