Let's not forget his strange works of art/design welding pieces of metal...just what we all want in our homes.

As much as I dislike Antonio and the Novaks as least they have some design sense and can communicate with and empathize with their clients. I just don't get that feeling from Stanley or Luca. They are both very ego driven but I just don't see them doing what their clients want.

Just read this article in the online version of The Virginian Pilot. I had no idea Stanley was a 'local'. They even have viewing parties at a bar about 45 minutes from my house.

Still find him annoying, but I guess I should stop rooting against him!

Hildi also painted a couch! Ew! Can't imagine how uncomfortable that was with crunchy dried latex paint all over it.

I missed the first episode of this season's D/S, so am not used to the personalities yet. There seem to be many talented people on here though!

Actually, I had a friend who did that once, and it wasn't as crunchy as you would think. I'd still want to strangle Hildi if she painted my couch, but it worked pretty well on the old fourth-hand chairs that my friend used.

Didn't she use a special fabric paint on that one? I could have sworn she did.

I wish they'd have Frank as a guest judge. :)

If I never see Hildi again, though, I'll be happy. I think she married a French guy, so France can have her. :lol

I'm confused as to how this conversation turned into Trading Spaces, or whatever the show was - another network entirely.

PLEASE BRING THE DISCUSSION BACK TO THE LATEST EPISODE OF DESIGN STAR. Thank you.
