HGTV's "Showhouse Showdown"

What makes a design outstanding is focusing attention on the smallest details in a space as well as the larger foundation pieces in order to see the total picture. The details, sometimes art, accessories, plants, etc., are the punctuation of an well-planned design. They are the glue that keeps everything together. They add the small touches of whimsy or elegance or glamour or drama, etc. Chosen properly or improperly they can make or break a good interior design.
