This Room Was Designed by Sherry Hayslip and won first place in Texas' ASID Legacy of Design Competition (under the category for small contemporary residences). I actually like how the flat screen TV looks on the console -- normally they look terrible. This is a really casual room if you think about it, with it's big wood table you could put your feet on, and substantial chairs. But it's really glamorous, and that's why I like it.

This room was designed by
Joanie Wyll, and received second place in the same category. It's a smashing room for so many reasons, not to mention the stone and glass staircase. This room evokes the rustic glamor I love so much in the
house featured in Hitchcock's
North by Northwest.

Young designer
Abbe Fenimore (
Studio Ten 25) won a merit award (under the category of residence, any size) for her loft design for Dallas Cowboys tight end
Martellus Bennett. I love how the colors seem to play off the colors of the cityscape outside, and I love the fact that until now I'd never heard of her.
