Vern Yip's Design Tips: Design Star Challenge 3
Design to Scale: With no limits on practicality, this challenge should have been a wonderful opportunity for Josh to translate his over-the-top style into an exciting and dynamic room. Although the pink and gray paint scheme is smart and tailored, his room is very much a disappointment as he sticks a plethora of compacts and angled placemats onto the walls. The result of his dollar-store shopping trip potentially indicates Josh feels challenged by limited resources. Wrapping paper components add another element of similar dollar-store scale instead of translating to what should have been a large and graphic visual message. Josh should have kept the dollar-store elements to one wall and repeated the same element en masse. This would have preferably translated to a rich, visually textured focal point instead of what was presented.
