Reality competition series are quickly becoming one of America’s biggest addictions. On the heels of the critically acclaimed "Top Chef" and "Project Runway", Bravo is taking these reality series to the next level by offering a behind the scenes look at the creative, competitive, and client-driven interior design business with its new reality series called "Top Design".

Jon at Happy Mundane is really excited about watching design heroes like, Jonathan Adler, and Kelly Wearstler tonight on "Top Design’s" premier. In his love for happy colors and good design of any kind, Jon finds Adler’s statement from a Bravo interview to be brilliant…

"start with a classical foundation, and end it with playful punctuation."

Jon goes on to say that this statement is totally true and exclaims "words to live by" for decorating and design questions. Hopefully the twelve aspiring interior designers are prepared and have a grasp of Adler’s words as they will be competing for cash to start their own design firms and a spot in one of New York’s finest designer showcases.

The show goes like this:

"In ‘Top Design,’ high pressure, eccentric personalities and creative
egos combine to fuel the next big hit in competition reality. Aspiring
and professional interior design contestants will converge and compete
in a series of challenges to create the “Top Design” while living in a
decked-out studio loft as they are inspired and critiqued by
professionals who are leaders in their chosen field".

As an already big fan of Jonathan Adler (I have his book, My Prescription For Anit-Depressive Living) I’ve got this show programmed and ready to record just in case I can’t stay up that late; but no worries, all the "Top Design" judges have their own blogs on Bravo, so I can just check out what they all have to say about the show tomorrow!
