Creatin' 2.0 Design Challenge - A Door to Somewhere

PRE-ORDER 2 - Shipping mid May

Includes FREE Shipping

This challenge is currently open to U.S. residents only. We hope to expand participation in the future.

The Door to Somewhere Kit is the official kit for the 2026 Creatin’ 2.0 Design Challenge. It’s made out of sturdy MDF and features a 12" x 12" square base, a 11" tall wall, and a custom, 3-D printed turntable. 

We would like all Creatin’ 2.0 participants to add a door, window, or some other opening to the wall. Rather than pre-cut the door and limit your creativity, we have left the choice of placement and dimensions up to you (the wall is sturdy MDF, but can be cut with a ruler and a craft knife).

Why a door? A door marks a passageway and a connection between two spaces. It could be on the facade of a home, store, or any space you can imagine. It could be an interior wall, connecting two rooms together, or the opening of a nook. Doors imply possibility, which is why it’s the perfect concept for this new version of the Creatin’ Contest.

The kit also has a (literal) twist: there's a plastic turntable concealed in the base, making it easy to view both sides of the wall.
