HGTV moves David Bromstad's 'Color Splash' to Miami

Miami Herald story here.

"I never stopped wanting to come back to Miami. I was commuting between here and San Francisco the whole time I was taping there," says Bromstad, 36, who was living in a Miami Beach studio when he entered the Design Star competition. "San Francisco is a beautiful city but it wasn't a design city. I was looking for a place that has a certain energy, that felt fresh and new." . . .

A friend encouraged Bromstad to harness all that imagination for a reality competition HGTV was launching called Design Star. Matched against 10 creative types, Bromstad wooed the judges with his energy and bold, modern style. His easy personality, movie star looks and penchant for working without a shirt probably didn't hurt either. . . .

People here know good design. They are surrounded by fabulous places, so I felt like we needed to take the designs to the next level," said Bromstad, who lives in a Bal Harbour loft with his partner. "Miami is rich in hotels, history and landmarks." . . .
