HGTV Urban Oasis

Last year, HGTV’s  Urban Oasis gave on lucky viewer a modern apartment in the middle of the city. The apartment is designed by Vern Yip. In this article, I will be providing you with helpful resources with information in regards to Urban Oasis 2011 which they will be giving away a wonderful apartment in Trump Towers. I will also give one resource that I do not suggest.

4. Floor Plan of the 2011 Urban Oasis –  Sometimes, I find that things are hard to find on the HGTV blog or website, so when I stumbled across the floor plan of the new house, I thought this would be a great addition to the list of resources.

6. About.com contest information – I chose this website as it has all the information necessary about the contest for 2010.
