Have you ever wondered what other DIYers are listening to while they tackle their latest projects? Team ORC recently got chatting about our own DIY listening habits, and it made us wonder about the ORC community at large. To find out, we launched an extensive research study (a few polls on our Instagram story).

Have you ever happened upon a DIY video while scrolling through your social media feed, and felt a sudden urge to start tackling a new project in your home? Research has shown that watching our peers DIY on social media is like a lightbulb moment.

The One Room Challenge® Spring ‘24 event has officially come to a close, and what a spectacular season it was. Here at ORC HQ we’ve been zealously browsing the reveals. Here’s our breakdown of what we saw making waves this season.

If your watchlist is looking a bit sparse, whether you're a design enthusiast seeking fresh ideas or simply looking for some beautiful escapism, you’ve come to the right place.

As we bid farewell to 2023, it's time to celebrate the hands-on creativity that not only left us genuinely awe-inspired, but are also getting our gears turning for next year. This year’s ORC participants showcased an abundance of talent that deserves a moment in the spotlight.
