The participants in this year’s contest have all channeled their inner Martha Stewart to put their personal stamp on their rooms.
The annual room design contest, now in its eighth year, begins with first-round voting by the student body, with the grand prize round determined by a vote of the residence council, faculty, and staff. Criteria for judging are room style, color, warmth, hominess, flair, creativity, innovative use of space, and personality.
This year’s grand prize winner was Joanna Birkner ’16, pictured above, from Radnor.
Some of the other finalists were: Delaney Williams ’17 (Brecon); Lucy Carreno-Roca ’16 and Haley Humphus ’17 (Denbigh); Kristal Sotomayor ’17 (Enid Cook 31′ Center); PÃa López ’18 (Erdman); Yiran Zhao ’19 and Sandra Torres ’19 (Merion); Anna Swartzentruber ’18 (New Dorm); Creighton Ward ’19, Sophia Brown ’19, and Amelia Marren ’19 (Pem East); Kelsey Rall ’17 (Pem West); Alisha Mudbhary ’19 and Aditi Sriram ’19 (Rhoads North); Christianna Kutz ’18 and Cathryne Velazquez ’18 (Rhoads South); and Patience Boston ’19 (Rock).
