such a bad bad decorating disaster, this contest is suspect to be a popularity contest.no? I think this contest ran out of road this year with the bloggers loading the eddie vote. great for them to have a voice-but shameful that it is so dishonest-if this is what the blogging design community supports and they did roundly-like blind mice-posting the room on their own sad scrapbooking blogs, they should be banned from the sphere.

fallen tree -so right you are, that is what's missing. that said the room is obviously done by an interior design professional-With a spiced up work of art and maybe an exotic lamp or two it becomes very elle decor. I think the one downfall the room has is its creator does not write a blog or have a web presence an obvious case of no fan base

I can only imagine the talented designers standing outside shaking their heads in dismay, disbelief- disgust.So much talent in that city and this along with another cluttered granny room and a dept. store sanitized lobby is what's presented. I should think this project will have pointed up the "Lack Of" in all three sources. Has NYC lost its edge? Has the abundance of grandiose lifestyle blogs cloaked bad design for the hungry masses in white slipcovers and rustic twigs.

Mr Ross's talent as a culinary graduate may be showing in this concoction but certainly not his "artistry." I doubt if many good designers refer to themselves as artists unless they paint or what have you. His personal style is charming but it is formulaic Martha Stewart and all that, his lack of design skill in sadly showing here and very sadly lacking. Disaster for Elle Decor.
