March is known for one thing in the sports world: the NCAA basketball championship, better known as March Madness. For three straight weeks, basketball fans will be glued to their TVs to see who makes it to the semifinals, finals and then, the Final Four. And for those who don’t care about basketball, I urge you to steer clear of establishments with more than two TVs. You’ll thank me later.
Here on Design Happens, we’re going to have our own little March Madness — design style — to determine the winner of Best Room of the Year. Starting with kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms, you all can pick your favorite spaces until the final two go head to head.
ROUND ONE:
KITCHENS
BATHROOMS
BEDROOMS
Head back Thursday for Round Two of D-Happ’s design-inspired March Madness. Be sure to vote in each round to see who will be our winner for Best Room of the Year!
Both bedrooms too masculine….
I agree.. the bathrooms were both very blah, as well.
I would like to say that there should be a neither vote
I really didn't love either one of them .
I agree. I had to go with the if I HAD to choose method..
YES SEND ME MORE! A MAGAZINE IF POSSIBLE
Sorry..none that I liked
I agree didn't care much for either bathroom and didn't like either of the bedrooms at all!!!
The kitchens were hard to choose between. I love elements of both, and if either of them were mine, I'd tweak them a bit. Each one is lacking where the othwr excels. The bathrooms and bedrooms were an easy choice. The one one the right and bottom, respectively.
What is up with all the white every where? Where did all the colors go? Don't get me wrong I like white, and it can pop to but with that much white every where it starts looking almost institutional and impersonal.
Didn't love the bathrooms. Really disliked both bedrooms.
Fun! Such a great idea, Kayla, and waaayyy more fun than picking basketball teams any day!
Nice design, creative…
I think with such a dark gray wall color on the first bedroom, they could have used a more feminine line on the bed. Too masculine. And I know Emerald is the new color for 2013, but I will only use sparingly. It still screams decades ago to me. But I love the March Madness theme. Do more!!
I love the bed from the dark grey room, I love the moldings of the second room. I like components of both rooms, but….neither color choices are what I would chose for me. Still, pretty.
the only thing i really liked was the tub in the bathroom but at least I did like one room better than the other when it came to all but the bedrooms. Both bedrooms were so hideous that I could not bring myself to vote at all.
all the rooms had something to offer but I wish there were more rooms shown.. I liked some of the features and not all..
All choices boring …too much white, too many straight lines.
Elegant Kitchen because it has a nice clean look and you can go with any color you like
Love the tub in the Tobi Fairley bathroom.
Great cabinets in top picture of kitchen.
I like this March Madness concept for design.
2 kitchen 1 bedroom 2 bathroom
Although I love the idea of HGTV March Madness, the images of the bedrooms and bathrooms aren't particularly amazing.
Both bedrooms were bland.too masculine.love that first kitchen
I really did not like any of the designs.
Kitchen 2 more my style less cleaning bedroom two more calming, bath room two more modern more Zen.
The kichens are bouth beautiful and was hard to make a chose but but I like simplicity, the first bathroom if the walls where not wall paper will be my .chose. Bedrooms I personaly like bouth of them but I love my bedroom dark. Love all images…
I voted for the wrong bathroom by mistake but not overly in love with either. Truth I like elements of each but as a whole not in love with any of them.
The kitchens are not for me,the first too busy and the second too cold but they both nice.
Neither bedroom!
Not really fond of either…not my style
I pick the blue & white , since I collect that stuff , would love to redo my cupboards white
I Loved my picks. I like the blue white and gray
like it
ok I like it
ok I want it
