He has a passion for edgy, modern styles and loves to include Asian-inspired minimalism and postwar industrial designs. He is a 33-year-old interior designer from Miami, Florida.<br /><br />Mark Diaz ("Design Star 6"), who grew up in a large Cuban/Italian family, says he always had a natural knack for design. After winning a scholarship for his design work in high school, Mark went on to earn a B.A. degree, Design in Architecture, from Florida International University. With a self-described passion for edgy, modern styles, he moved to New York City where he specialized in luxury hospitality design. Despite a successful career, Mark says he missed the Florida sun and returned to Miami to start his own firm. His favorite design styles, which include mid-century modern, Asian-inspired minimalism and post-war industrial, combined with his love of martial arts, are the inspiration for his current line of chandeliers that are crafted from brass knuckles.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSjAyDC8r04VB7Q-lyGQFel_ZlvezHTAkSRyK8scxMFnGQ6_lhMShLX8wuI5olKhNVP4Eiof_q2gGPas8vEctHuKet6yL-Pc234oYIa5MSZVgtdsjZWEuoErX5gquZLk_tAUVXKZhA6j0/s1600/Mark-Diaz%2527s-Design-Portfolio-HGTV-2011-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSjAyDC8r04VB7Q-lyGQFel_ZlvezHTAkSRyK8scxMFnGQ6_lhMShLX8wuI5olKhNVP4Eiof_q2gGPas8vEctHuKet6yL-Pc234oYIa5MSZVgtdsjZWEuoErX5gquZLk_tAUVXKZhA6j0/s640/Mark-Diaz%2527s-Design-Portfolio-HGTV-2011-5.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><h2 style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Natural and Modern</span></h2><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">Organic and contemporary materials are combined to create a modern guest bathroom.
