I liked Matt's room, but with the lucite, glass tables and sunburst domed mirror looked like something that I've seen many times in interior design magazines, and it did not give me the feeling of water. Perhaps the blue walls gave a feeling of water better in person than they did on the television.

Goil's room, and especially the bed and seating area, did not look finished. But, I certainly appreciated his fresh approach to hotel room design. It was much more interesting, even though it was not as polished, than the winning design.

I hope you've been able to find a good mentor for our pal Goil. I look forward to seeing his work in the future.

Wow, what an episode. Well I would agree that there were many shortcomings in a couple of the designs. Matt's was my favorite by far. It completely invited someone to walk in and sink down.
What I do want to address is the designers' comments. I had never watched the show until last week. I was very intrigued.
However, there seemed to be so many digs against one another that I thought more about why I hated high school than I liked the designers or even cared what they said. Which is a shame. Do they say these things to be remembered or are they all catty and insecure? Goyl was the only one I perceived to be the least critical.
I would say that the self centered atmosphere left me wondering if the clients really mattered or not. Well I guess we shall see in the next few weeks what the results will be.
I do like the show and enjoy thinking about what my creations would be. Good luck designers!

I believe that everyone, including yourself, was way too kind to Goil's room. Can you really imagine that room in posh hotel? The strange thing behind the bed would be an instant turn off. In addition the colors were (as you stated) way too literal. The room made me ill to observe.
As the editor of a political newspaper, I have seen many posh homes and hotels and Goil's was just not it. I also believed that you were too kind to Andrea for a weak room that did not fit the idea of earth.
If someone actually sleep on the bed of Clarisa's room, they would have felt very close in and trapped. Too many designers are caught up in screen idea. It never seems to look right when actually done.

Goil created a work of art, with a sculpture in the room on top of it. Matt has always had the best work even when you have voted him 2nd.

You asked Andrea if she thought of using the color green in her room. Isn't that one of the colors that you thru Elizabeth off for using? Anyone would have to be crazy to try green again. Matt was the other person on the team you could have got rid of that week, and now he is going to win Top Design. Notice how Matt has been using white and black for his colors. He got the message. Elizabeth had the courage to stand by the color selection, and Matt weasled out. Matt knows how to play the game. He may end up submitting a completely empty room that you will all swoon over for its "simplicity of design".

Hello Margaret,

Thank you for your in depth comments. This challenge (like the previous 2) was a definite improvement to previous challenges.
Matt's room was simply divine and seemed to be the only one that fully represented luxury. The single glaring mistake was that awful, dirty looking rug.

Carissa's room did not do it for me. The slatted center wall annoyed me because they chopped the room up and made the room look cramped. Her vibe seems to repeat itself over and over with bold, chunky furnishings. The room may have been unique to you, it did not sing luxury for me.

Andrea's room seemed serene and peaceful. I really liked her "window" treatments. However, the "grassy" side tables looked silly and useless. The bed did look inviting, though.

Goil's room was a disaster! I would not pay $89. for that, let alone big bucks. The colors were harsh. The bed lacked opulence. The chairs looked like they were borrowed from a dentist's office waiting room. His talent may lay in the creation of unique little details. However, he really needs to look at the "big picture"... He really needs to get out of his dorm room and live, live, live!

Thank you...somebody else felt Carisa's dark blue and black was a little overwhelming for the small space. I think it must have been difficult to decide between Adrea and Goil this week. Unfortunately I think being an architect is a hinderance in this competition. They both seem to overanalize everything. Matt's room was beautiful and deserves to be in Metro Home.

Margaret explained to us in her blog that Elizabeth's green looked much worse in person than it did on TV!
Besides, EVERYONE knows that television plays tricks with color, texture, scale, everything!
And, obviously, the judges suggested green because green is probably the first color that everyone thinks of as a representation of earth, which Andrea should have known.
The only "message" that I see from Margaret is that she wants to see something beautiful!

I like that Goil thinks outside the box, but sometimes he thinks too far out of the box and misses the point. Top Design, much like Project Runway, has a delicate balance to maintain - simply stated – the executive producers, judges, et al. have to identify the wining design based on a blend of design, form and function.

I think this challenge, that of a posh, sophisticated hotel, themed on one of the four elements, provides perfect insight into each designer’s ability. It’s wonderful that Goil was able to develop an insightful and interesting interpretation of the element: fire, but it simply lacked the class and culture required. Mind you, Andrea’s interpretation of the element: earth was poorly implemented too, as there was little cohesiveness. However, there were a number of elements that made Andrea’s room more inviting, such as ample seating, plush linens, and a color palate suitable for a 4- or 5-star hotel.

I believe the best designers are those that can wear many hats, the most important being that of the end-user or customer. Goil failed to include some basics, the least of which was seating and though the stylish chairs worked with his theme, they failed to provide a comfortable place to sit.

I have found that Margaret Russell’s perspective is usually the most akin to the perspective of the general public, as she asks the right questions and focuses more on form and function than design. My point is that it may look pretty, but might be uncomfortable to sit or sleep in, and in Goil’s case it was much more about the look than the feel.

I am realizing at the end of every episode, that this program was not designed to get really good designers, but weird, off beat individuals who could not make a living designing.

After watching the judges critique each contestants work, I laugh myself to sleep every night. The judges need to have a professional dress them!! They need help with their wardrobe really bad.

Frankly, I don't get it. I thought the purpose of interior design was to make beautiful spaces that fit the needs of those using the space. It looks like the designers are trying so hard to be avant-garde that they don't even consider what would make a hotel guest happy.

Goil may be a wonderful artist, but he is not a designer. His rooms make a statement but don't serve their purpose well. That hotel room looks uncomfortable to me. And why did everyone say that fire is a difficult element? Why not be direct about it instead of artsy? Fire...fireplace...warm, cozy and inviting. That's a room I'd like to stay in.

Air? Carisa's room was the opposite of airy. It seemed cramped and closed in. When I think airy, I think of light colors, big windows, lots of light, and sheer fabrics. This room is almost claustrophobic.

Andrea's room was disappointing compared to her effort last week. She could have used all the colors of the earth as her palette...and all the materials as well, like stone, marble, slate, terra cotta, granite, wood, etc. So what if she used some of them last week? Both times, they fit the assignment. But grass in a hotel room? If I owned the hotel and my designer suggested I try to maintain grass in the guest rooms, I'd think she was out of her mind. You can be edgy and push the envelope without being irrational.

Matt was the only one who came close. His room does seem shimmery like water, and it looks like a cool, relaxing place to stay. But why can't anyone pay attention to the assignment? Hotel rooms need televisions, phones, and a place to put your bags down. The mark of a great designer is the ability to incorporate the necessities of life beautifully into the space, not the denial of creature comforts because they don't happen to fit the designer's artistic vision.

This show does remind me of design school all over again and many of the irritating people in studio. Matt's "hotel room" was clearly the best in show and his work often is. It really has been a competition between him and Andreafor a while now. Goil had the best personality and is painfully smart, but he is more concept designer and architect than decorator. The best thing about this show is Margaret Russell. She is the real deal and frankly too good for the show.

Hi Margaret,
Thanks for your contribution to a very enjoyable show. As I've watched these past few weeks, I keep wondering: do the designers on the show attempt to wow the judges with innovation at the expense of practicality? Some of their most amazing designs would be flat out impossible to live with. For instance, the kitty litter/swing room, and the "art room" created for the design student. It reminds me of the fashion runway where the styles are deliberately exaggerated, but not meant to be worn "as is."

I'm glad someone mentioned Matt's sunburst mirror as being a cliche and having nothing to do with air. Those sunburst mirrors have been around since the mid 80's and are not unique. The room was beautiful but the wall hanging was out of place, as was the rug.

I was not enthralled by Andrea's room either and didn't find it memorable. It didn't bring up the rich earthiness of her theme. I agree with bloggers who say that Carissa's room looked more like water and Matt's more like air.

Wish Goil could have worked on the cabana project olone - but then again, I don't have 10 years to wait to see the completed cabana. Matt seems to have 'it'. The women seem to have good designs, but seem to lose focus at times (maybe dwelling on the smaller details for too long).

sunburst mirrors have been around since Louis XIV of France (he called himself the Sun King and ruled from 1643 to 1715)...they are much, much older than the mid 1980's and are one of many furniture/decorative items that would be considered a "classic" and not a cliche.

Carissa's bedroom, was exactly not what I would like to spend the night in. The "screens" would feel claustraphobic, and imagine dust or (forbid) a little spider lurking in them behind your head or at your feet. The blue might be hard to take for a whole night. Matt's rooms are elegant, and timeless, and more could have been said about his wonderful dining room -the colors of, which by the way, could have been an inspiration for "fire" in the hotel room contest. Goil is adorable. Andrea's dining room was wonderful, and her bedroom with a sofa instead of the "bench", and a plant instead of grass, would have offered a very comfortable place to spend the night. Have to disagree about the judges' comments about Andrea's "feathery" flowers. The texture and color were beautiful and intriguing, and worked on the high draped tables. The problem in that particular room was simply the disconnect of some elements. The doorman in the alternate party room was THE perfect touch, and would have steered the party-goers to whatever room at which he was placed. The Bar was perfect in the winning room! A comment on resources ... It is wonderful to see the beautifully designed furniture available in the Design Center. It would be hard NOT to put together an awesome room given the resources at hand. Maybe the challenges that are composed of simply pulling from the awesome resources are not the best way to judge the design ability. Matt and Andrea need to compete in some individual designs that do not necessarily consist of pulling from the incredible design center. Matt, your blue was perfect, and thanks for the color tip. It took him, as he said, a whole half hour to find the right color. Some of us take weeks or months! Andrea perfected her bedroom color when she needed to, and that says something. She was slightly criticized for working through her design, rather than "just doing it". I would hope a designer I hired, would work it out when needed! P.S. Have always loved Elle Decor magazine! And, have really enjoyed the show! P.S. Desperately need tips for finding wonderful designed furniture at less than Design Center prices. Thanks.
