Vern Yip's Design Tips:
Design Star Challenge 1: Las Vegas Penthouse

Maximize Potential: The metal roll-up door, with its unusual shape, makes a powerful design statement. Lisa could have used it as a catapult for a clean-lined discussion space that included sofas, chairs and tables for working out ideas. Another possibility would be to create a Zen-like contemplation space with elevated platforms, mats, floor pillows and a wall fountain, or even a great relaxation space with chaise lounges and daybeds surrounded by sheers for privacy. Unfortunately, Lisa failed to maximize the potential of the space by focusing on what was happening with wall surfaces and creating a series of small elements that failed to add up to a big statement.
