The couple had already started the renovation process before Bryan arrived. They had done a lot of the work themselves, which Bryan commends them for. However, when he takes a closer look, he notices that they overlooked some critical details that could cause problems down the road.
Bryan’s first order of business is to assess what needs to be done. He notes that the couple has already taken down some walls and moved some plumbing and electrical fixtures. He is impressed with their handiwork and how they have managed to open up the space. However, he points out some structural issues that need to be addressed before they can continue with the renovation.

He warns them that without a focal point, the room will look cluttered and have no flow. He shows them how to create a focal point in each room and how it can make a world of difference.
Another area where the couple has overlooked details is the lighting. They have not considered the lighting plan for each room, nor have they thought about the type of lighting they want. Bryan shows them how to create a lighting plan that takes into account the natural light, task lighting, and ambient lighting.
The coloring scheme is another critical area where Bryan helps the couple to focus. They have not thought about the colors they want to use throughout their home. Bryan explains the importance of color coordination and advises the couple to choose a simple, neutral color scheme that will make the space look cohesive and timeless.
As the show progresses, Bryan works hand in hand with the couple, advising them along the way and ensuring that the renovation is successful. He provides invaluable tips and tricks that help the couple to create the perfect space that is both functional and beautiful.
