Ep 7. Family Memories

No Demo Reno season 1 episode 7 - Family Memories

In this episode of No Demo Reno, the team takes on a unique challenge - transforming a family's home into a space that preserves their cherished memories, while also updating it to meet their current needs. The homeowners are a family of five who have lived in the same house for over two decades. They've raised their children here and created countless fond memories in the space. However, as their children have grown up and moved out, the house has started to feel outdated and cluttered. The family has decided it's time for a change, but they don't want to lose the character of the home they love.

The No Demo team starts by assessing the family's needs and wants. The homeowners express their desire for a more open-concept space that's better suited to entertaining, as well as a more functional kitchen and updated bathrooms. They also want to maintain the warmth and charm of their family home.

The team gets to work on designing a space that fulfills all of the family's wishes. They start by opening up the main living area and kitchen, creating a bright and airy space that's perfect for hosting guests. They install new cabinetry, countertops, and appliances in the kitchen, creating a modern and functional space that's still in keeping with the character of the home.

In the bathroom, the team introduces new fixtures and tiling, updating the space to give it a fresh and contemporary feel. They also reconfigure the layout to make it more functional for the family's needs. Throughout the house, the team introduces new lighting fixtures, flooring, and paint colors to create a cohesive and inviting design.

One of the highlights of the project is a special feature the team creates to highlight the family's memories. They build a custom shelving unit in the living room, creating a focal point where the family can display their cherished photos and mementos. The team also repurposes some of the family's existing furniture, incorporating pieces with sentimental value into the new design.

Overall, the family is thrilled with the results of the renovation. The No Demo team has managed to create a space that's both modern and functional, while also maintaining the warmth and character of the family's home. With the updates, the family now has a space that's better suited to their current needs, while also serving as a tribute to the memories they've created over the years.
