Personally, I thought the Miami Cabana design hit the mark. The roof provided a refuge from the sun, which can be over bearing on the beach. The interior space was cool and therefore calming. All the talk about Las Vegas "colors" was overblown considering the excellent use of indoor and outdoor space. Having just begun to watch this program, I got the impression that the judges came into this particular contest biased against one or more of the designers. I've been in design since graduating from Graphic Design in college over 44 years ago. As a consultant on numerous corporate projects, the judges comments reminded me of political in-fighting and jealousies than pure design critique. Was there some previous show or off-screen incident that can explain their decision to isolate - and then fire a team member - for the constrianed use of green and yellow on an otherwise excelllent floor plan which met the stated design criteria? Particularly when the winner of this contest was a design without a roof which negates the purpose of a cabana, and had no particular design flair.
