SANTA
ANA, Calif., Sept. 19,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Behr Paint
Company announces its first-ever BEHR® Student
Design Competition in partnership with MattoBoard, a 3D virtual
sampling platform for designers. The competition is open starting
today, September 19,
through November 10, 2024, for full-time or part-time emerging
professional design students.*
Behr Paint invites design students to submit an original design
plan for any commercial space such as hospitality, workplace,
healthcare, multifamily and more. The design theme, "No Clear
Boundaries," draws inspiration from the BEHR 2025 Commercial Color
Forecast, which celebrates the fluidity between designed
environments that reflect the intersection of the past and future,
digital and physical, and timeless and modern. Entrants must
incorporate colors from the BEHR 2025 Commercial Color Forecast in
their design along with BEHR's 2025 Color of the Year, Rumors, a
deep and timeless shade of ruby red.
The competition was created to champion emerging designers by
providing specialized resources and opportunities to showcase and
celebrate their talents. "As a judge of the BEHR Student Design
Competition, I am excited to see how each student embraces color
and design," said Erika Woelfel,
Vice President of Color & Creative Services at Behr Paint
Company. "At Behr, we are committed to supporting the careers of
the next generation of designers, and I look forward to seeing the
students' creativity shine through."
The judging panel will also include Guy
Adam Ailion, Architect and CEO / Co-Founder of MattoBoard;
Kayla Kratz, Director of Color &
Designer Segment at Behr Paint Company; and Amber Jones, Director of Architect &
Designer Strategic Initiatives at Behr Paint Company.
The winner of the 2024 BEHR Student Design Competition will be
awarded a $3,000 cash prize and
$1,000 for their design school. The
runner-up will receive a $1,500 cash
prize, and the second runner-up will receive a $500 cash prize. All winners will also receive a
