1) Read our Competition T&Cs in full.
2) You can enter all the judging categories if you wish, but you cannot win in more than one category. You don't have to specify which category you're entering when you submit your entry (although you can if you like!) your submission will automatically be included in any relevant judging categories.
3) You must enter at least one "before" photo and one "after" photo to qualify. The "before" photo can be undecorated pieces/buildings, pre-renovation pics, or materials used if making items from scratch, etc. Multiple photos are encouraged!
4) Tell us a little bit about you and your project. We need a name and your nationality (or country of residence) but we'd also love some information on what inspired your project, how long its taken to complete, and how you achieved the finished product!
5) If you have received a prize for your project/scene in a previous Minimum World competition your entry will not be submitted for judging.
6) All work must be your own (or in collaboration with another person, with their permission) and your submission entry must be for personal use (i.e. not for sale) - no funny business please!
7) By entering this competition you consent to Minimum World using any photos you submit for marketing purposes (on our website, on our socials and in our promotional newsletters)
