This contest is open to any U.S. adult who loves the modern aesthetic, but needs some extra help to achieve a truly modernized, 2011 living room. To help homeowners get started, everyone who enters will receive a 10 percent discount on their next purchase from www.AllModern.com, one of the leading online retailers in modern furniture, decor and accents.

"The living room is the one space in a home where many people feel as though they are really restricted from expressing themselves," says Gidding. "It tends to be very exposed and gets a lot of attention from friends and family, so people end up creating something that doesn't necessarily fit with who they are, and that's a missed opportunity."

To remedy this, AllModern.com has assembled a $25,000 grand prize package that includes furniture, accents, and more from Gus Modern, Herman Miller®, Missoni Home, Blomus, ET2 Lighting, and Inhabit, with John Gidding providing his professional expertise in redesigning the room. Second and third place will receive $2,000 and $1,000 in modern accessories, respectively.

To enter the contest, simply go to www.allmodern.com/chic and briefly describe how a modern update to your living room will help you unleash your chic side.

After all entries are received, AllModern.com's panel of judges will choose state finalists, asking them to submit a picture of their living rooms. The finalists' submissions will then be posted on www.facebook.com/CSNStores, where fans of All Modern will be able to vote for their favorites.

For more information on the challenge or to set up an interview with John Gidding or AllModern.com experts, contact Jonathan Chiou at [email protected] or [email protected].
