So if you have been living under a rock, or you if actually have a life, you should be aware that Gensler, the largest interior design/architecture firm in the world, has a plant on the latest version of HGTV’s Design Star.

That’s right Tom Vecchione who is a design director at Gensler New York is actually trying to become the next HGTV Design Star. PROFESSIONALINTERIORDESIGNER has heard from his sources (who shall remain anonymous) that Vecchione’s plans are to win the show (I mean come on the guy has more experience in his left pinkie nail than all of the rest of the contestants combined) and get his own show on the venerable decorating network.  Thereby completing Gensler’s attempt to dominate global design culture. Rumor has it that Vecchione plans to take over the network and drop the ‘H’ from the network moniker so that it simply reads GTV- as in Gensler TV.

PROFESSIONALINTERIORDESIGNER hopes his sources are correct…even though he can’t remember who they are or….if they even exist.
