ANOTHER ONE OF MY DESIGNS FEATURED ON SWEAT EQUITY

JUNE 14th 3pm central

JUNE 29TH 6PM

After my design meeting with first time homeowner Ryan Maddux I was in for a challenge, transforming a 70's split story home into a young hip space. Ryan was thrilled to purchase his 1964 split level. Although it was terribly outdated, he knew that he could handle the cosmetic fixes it needs to make it make it more livable for him and more desirable when it's time to sell. Next on his to-do list is giving a contemporary makeover to the entryway and living room. He's hoping the updated look will set the tone for the rest of the house and appeal to future buyers. He has his own funky style and wanted to bring that into the design. I was able to bring Ryan's style into the home with modern innovative products! Watch DIY Network and see the transformation.

MY SWEAT EQUITY DESIGN AIRING

DIY NETWORK JUNE 15 8AM

After meeting Zak & Tricia, I realized how much they loved their turn-of-the-century two story because of the potential it contained. They've lived in the house two years and have saved enough money to do some of the much-needed improvements. The "ivy" bathroom tops the list because it's not only ugly, but it contains a washer and dryer and the washer drains into the tub-which isn't exactly a selling point and is seriously weird. I put together a plan for the washer and dryer to be relocated, which will free up space for a separate shower and tub. The new bathroom will have a contemporary flair with glass tile and a concrete sink.
