Ohio: Stratford Road

Overview

We're in the heartland for this episode, where designers Rick Rifle and Laurie Hickson-Smith tackle a dining room and a family room. Laurie has big plans to transform this ordinary family room so that it accommodates the expanding needs of the homeowners and their family. Expanding almost as quickly are her carpentry projects, which, according to handy guy Ty Pennington, are way beyond what he thinks they should be. In the neighbor's house, Rick Rifle is trying to give his homeowners a bold dining room for large family gatherings. Does turquoise make a room seem bigger? Or does the room just seem bigger because no one will ever want to eat in a turquoise dining room? We've never seen a homeowner make a face quite like this before and host Paige Davis employs her best diplomacy trying to find the silver lining.
