#ZUHAUSESEIN #BEINGATHOME | WIN A PIECE OF FURNITURE AND NOT ONLY | unprogetto

This post is also available in ITALIANO

#zuhausesein, it’s hard to read, but it’s also a wonderful opportunity: it means #beingathome and it’s a contest to win a piece of furniture from a German manufacturer and take part to imm Cologne.

Everybody knows, I am a big fan of the Cologne trade fairs, and in particular of imm Cologne, which is taking place from January, 13th to 19th 2020.

You can imagine my happiness when I discovered that this year I can offer my followers the chance to win a piece of furniture made in Germany (and visit this fair with me).

Well, let’s take a step back: VDM, the German association of furniture manufacturers, organized this year an international photo contest and chose me as a juror!

The name of the contest is #zuhausesein, that is #beingathome.

The question the Association asks all participants is:

What does #zuhausesein mean to you?

What is #beingathome to you?

Here you can find my answer.

To answer, each participant can send from one to ten photographs, one for each category identified by VDM:

Outdoor Living
Tiny Spaces
The hallway – the ticket to your home
Kitchen Lover
Relaxed sleeping
The living room – my private retreat
The bathroom – the private wellness temple
Living with children
Working at Home
Other forms of living (e.g. caravans)

A piece of furniture from a German furniture manufacturer.
Integration of the winning motif at the photo exhibition at imm cologne 2020.
Two tickets plus one overnight stay for the imm cologne 2020, where the VDM provides a travel allowance of up to 500 euros (the winner has to make the booking himself, VDM refunds it).
