The Merge Chill Corner Design Contest
Merge is moving to the NEXT Innovation Center on or around February 15th of 2010.
Between the creative juices that we use for our clients every day and the umpteen decisions that we've had to make already for the office, we're looking for your creative ideas to make one area of our office really cool.
So here's the deal: Our new office will have two main windows that we have left open from obstruction (see below). In the corner of the office, a semi-circle (13' by 10') in the carpet designates the "Chill Corner."

Note: The colors are off. The Carpet is black and tan, the circles a darker tan, not green.
This is the place to go relax. It might be a casual meeting between one or two people, it might mean our designer or programmer could take their laptop and plop down into a bean bag to get some work done, or it could mean this is where the proverbial Foosball table is located for those times a break is needed. It's the Chill Corner. How would you design it?
Rules:
- You have $500 to work with.
- Tell us your idea. Show pictures if possible.
- Source the products. We don't only want to hear the ideas, but you need to provide us links to the products so that if you win, we can go buy the furniture, etc. that makes up your idea. Don't forget to factor in shipping.
- The deadline: Wednesday, February 10th by Midnight.
- The Prize: $100 gift certificate to a Table 301 Restaurant (Soby's, Lazy Goat, Devereaux's).
- The winner will be announced on February 12th, 2010.
Submit your Chill Corner idea to chillcorner@mergeweb.com, complete with a description or image of the idea AND links to the products we'd need to buy to make your idea a reality.
We will announce the winner via Facebook/Twitter. If you win, you'll be invited to our open house in mid-March so you can see your idea as a reality.
