One of My All Time Favorite HGTV Design Star Winners :: Emily Henderson

I must say that Emily Henderson is one of my favorite HGTV Design Star contestants (...and winners) of all time. There's just something about her design esthetic that no other designer on HGTV seems to have. I guess that's what makes her so unique.

I must say...I'm still trying to figure out her formula - how she mixes certain colors and patterns, the theory and secrets behind "the style diagnostic" and the commonalities between all of her spaces that give it that Emily Henderson signature.

I think one of the great marks of a truly mature designer / stylist is being able to create a design for a customer that is completely that customer but completely the designer at the same time. I think Emily does this so well that anyone can tell one of her designs, whether she's in the room or not. I think that's one of the things that makes Emily so special...not to mention her incredibly quirky, fun, exuberant personality! :-)

Anyway...time for me to sign off but check out more of her work on Style by Emily Henderson and on HGTV.com then drop a comment to let me know what you think.
