And the Design Star Fan Favorite Is…
You cast almost a million votes this season in the Design Star fan vote to help one contestant win their own show on HGTV.com. Voting is now closed, and you’ve chosen the winner: Season seven runner-up and Hollywood regency devotee Britany Simon! From her graphic wall in episode one to her glamorous, modern homeowner makeover in the finale, she wowed all season long.

Yuki, Danielle and Bex had their share of fans, but the votes weren’t enough to topple Britany’s lead:
Congratulations, Britany! Check back here for news about her brand new online show. Until then, look back at these how-tos inspired by Britany’s best designs:
- Geometric Trim Wall Treatment
- Chevron Privacy Screen
- DIY Striped Canvas Rug
- Mirrored Wall Focal Point
What would you like to see in Britany’s online show? Voice your opinion in the comments below.




i voted for brittney. yeah!!!!!!
I hope Brittany will have her own show on TV and I can't wait to see her design. She is a true design star of 2012.
Congratulations to Brittany!!!!
How many of all of us TRULY watch any of the on-line shows??? Vote thumbs-up if you have seen at least 2 of them… Thumbs-down if you if not…
Britany all the way!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad that Brittany won this at the very least. I will NEVER watch Danielle's show….her screech-y voice is incredibly irritating and she seems uber fake. Why did the judges choose such an unpalatable winner?1?
I feel that Brittany is a good desinger and she did a bang up job on the Yurt, but her camera challenges and her confidence was slim. I think that Danielle's designs were simply better and she comes across much better on camera. Also, don't be bitter to the winner be happy for everyone!
PATRICIA U R WRONG BRITNEY ROCKS!
Agree! I loved Danielle but she does seem kinda fake.
It was obvious who the winner was when you see on here who won all the votes. That is what happens when a show has been fixed. Danielle has talent also, but as many people feel Brittany is the better designer here.
agree totally. LET THE VIEWERS VOTE NEXT TIME!
That's soo true, Danielle looks really faaaaaakkkeeee!!! Don't understand the judges decision, very dissapointed on the show
i am over joyed that brittany has won the online show ,i watched her all though design star and fell in love with all of her work ! brittany really did deserve to win but at least the fans know who is the real winner (: Brittany is a real inspireration to me and she made me want to become a interior designer . I know for a fact this is not the last we have seen of brittany Simon. She truly is my roal model and i hope the online show will become a show on hgtv !!! congratulations Brittany!!!
Im very happy that Britany won. I wish she was the next design star. Voting for britany 10 times a day sure helped
Britt: Please come back to Phoenix for your on-line show. There are sooo many ho-hum homes. You could call your show “Ho-hum to Humdinger” I was rooting for you to win.
I would like you to come do my kitchen. It needs help, but on a strict budget. Old non-working built-in can opener, blender power source, and toaster for a start. Tile counter-top with half-inch grout-lines for second. Chipped inlaid floor next. Grungy cabinets that cannot be cleaned 4th. Poorly planned layout 5th. Lighting needs to be improved. We bought the house 2 years ago, and we love it, but it wasn’t the kitchen that drew us into the purchase, believe me. Wanna see pictures?
WTF??!!!!!! DANIELLE WON?! HGTV WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!How the heck Did Danielle win Design Star??!!!!!!! Brittany should of WON!!! Im sorry But Danielle sounds naslley like she is talking thru her nose. VERY irratating to listen too! I will not watch her show. Im so disappointed Judges that you picked her to win! HGTV Why would you pick her when her rooms looked like crap!!!!!!
Danille is so fake and brittney is the fan favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not danille. Im never going to watch the show on shopping because all other design show are about that! If candace olsen was a judge she would totally love brittney!
