Simple Truths About Top Design

Nathan had the Top Design. Margaret Russell explains why.

November 5, 2008

I'm so thrilled about Barack Obama I no longer care that I was outvoted two weeks in a row on Top Design. It's so sad that bringing back Andrea, Eddie, and Natalie inspired the most energy and excitement we've seen so far. Eddie's slimy behavior towards Preston was beyond comprehension. And you're insane if you believe it's the result of selective editing by the producers.

The townhouse layouts were appalling (a kitchen larger than a living room?), yet the designers produced three distinctive visions with three vastly different approaches to design. It's a miracle the judges came to an agreement, as our deliberation was lengthy and heated (and not because of 100-degree weather and an annoying lack of A/C). We were wildly conflicted, but what truly matters is that Ondine Karady, Preston Lee, and Nathan Thomas are super talents and all deserved to win for different reasons.

Another great list. I'm meeting more friendly and helpful bloggers each week. Great Idea ;)

Margaret-- Thanks for writing such a cohesive and contentful blog. I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that a magazine editor would be the best writer, but your blog is so much more interesting and informative than average, just like your commentary on the show.
