Why doesn't AT just have a team of professionals judge the contest? You could still have a vote and recognize the most popular entry, but if the winner was determined by judges it would take away the incentive to cheat with the voting.

519Wilson - they do NOT IP check. I tried it out myself. You can vote as many times as you like from the same computer, as long as you sign in with a different AT registration. The cheating was rampant and I emailed AT days ago about it--they didn't respond and they didn't do a thing to stop it. I'm going to email Benjamin Moore about it because I can't imagine they'd want their name associated with this thing.

Hm well I don't really get how it's masculine. I thought the style was supposed to be kind of romantic and old-fashioned? I can't say I know any guys who have done their place in this style.

Nice place and I'm loving that bathroom!

Is it cause I'm a guy that I don't get all the love for this place? It looks very haphazard to me, the furniture arrangement doesn't seem right, and all you see of the kitchen is just a couple of wood shelves.

I don't really like the "Small" division of this contest because I just don't think furnishing and organizing a 900-1000 sq. ft. space is all that challenging. However, I think your home is lovely and I hope you win in this division.

Something really weird about these images. They look computer generated.

Who started the "love, love, love" thing? I don't think there is an AT post where someone doesn't "love, love, love" something. What's wrong with just one "love"? Why is it never two or four "loves", but always three? Can anyone help me out here, I just want to understand.

SO glad to see a small apartment tour -- sometimes I think they should change the name of this site to House Therapy. Very nice studio, very feminine. I have to say, judging from the comments, I think about 99% of the readers on here must be women. I don't doubt the shoe collection is great, but I just thought that was an odd photo to choose when I saw it.

Why doesn't AT just have a panel of experts judge the entries in their various contests, rather than make it a meaningless popularity contest? I am sure this way makes a lot of new people registered on the site (perhaps multiple times) - so maybe AT is just trying to drive up the number of registered users?

I like the color palette, and esp. like the like wall with wallpaper and bench together. But why is the sofa placed at that angle? The placement and scale of the living room furniture isn't quite right, to my eyes.

Well, he isn't breaking any rules by submitting a room decorated by a designer, so if you have a problem with it, it's Apartment Therapy you should complain to. I don't care that this room was professionally "designed" -- I just think it's way to cutesy/prissy. The empty frame and the twigs, and all that stuff on the walls? So cloying.

To me this looks way too busy and cramped, kind of dizzying, especially for a bedroom. It's a small room and you make it look even smaller. Also, window right above a bed doesn't looks right to me.

There is a Hoboken in NY, too?

crispyfry5: I've been wondering the same thing since this contest started. Not just about this room, but about a number of the leading rooms. I thought maybe it was just that some people have a ton of friends who vote for them, maybe post it on Facebook and are able to get hundreds of votes that way? I'm not really sure, but something is definitely wrong with this contest.

This is a pretty room in a style that goes so well with the architecture of the house. You'd get more votes if you painted it purple and lime, but it's really better you didn't!

I guess there are a couple disco-y elements but the overall feel isn't Studio 54 at all. It's an incredible place but I really don't like the decor at all.

Not too impressed. And AT reader seem to "Love Love Love" just about anything.
