So, did you watch it? Did you Catch Design Star last week?
I watched it twice. I LOVE that show.
I will have to say I usually pick my "winner" during the first show, but this season i cannot quite put my finger on it...I want to see more. In fact, I am always a little sad when the first designer gets voted off...sometimes nerves and circumstance get the best of them and they never get their chance to shine.
BUT...Tonight,
Monday 7/18/11 at 9/8c on HGTV,
Monday 7/18/11 at 9/8c on HGTV,
I get my second chance to check out Design Star
and try to make my prediction.
I will say that for the premiere episode, I wholeheartedly agreed with the judges on the room they selected to win. The bonus room designed by Karl and Kellie is fabulous - such a great use of space. I can imagine myself cozied up in that bonus room nook reading my favorite magazines!
I LOVED that mural painted by Karl (I kind of love Karl so far too).
In the Living Room designed by Leslie and Cathy, I liked a good portion of what they did, but Leslie's find of that table made of old rubber tires was AMAZING! What a cool piece that is contemporary and modern but looks fabulous in this room and is such a great focal point.
I also liked Meg and Tyler's bedroom...
of course I did it was a shade of purple
(and we know how I feel about purple)!
Be sure to check out Design Star tonight at 9/8c on HGTV!
So, did you watch?

I must add that David Bromstad is super charming as this seasons mentor!

I watched. Or tried to watch. My husband watched with me. Acccckkk! Running commentary from him was distracting. I shall not make that mistake again but I loved the bonus room. That little space under the stairs was soooo cool.
ReplyDeleteI saw last week's episode and will be watching again tonight. Loved the space under the stairs and the painted wall.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the others. Last year I picked the winner from the first episode but like you I don't have a favortie yet. I don't know what it is about this show but I love it. I think it is all the different personalities and how they design differently.
ReplyDeleteI am really very glad after read here and I appreciate for the information that you presented here.
