Synopsis

Two rival design teams have two days to create a knockout budget version of a high-end inspiration room.

Using the key design principles, but with one-tenth of the original budget, designers Meredith Heron and Hal Eisen guide the two novice teams through the process.

Each team begins with the same signature piece of furniture pinched from the first room, but only the winning team gets to claim the piece as their prize.

In each episode, the two teams compete to create the most innovative and aesthetically pleasing low-end tribute to a high-end model room.

The program entertains by following the challenges and relationship dynamics of the participants, but it also imparts useful information for creating champagne design on a beer budget.

The program’s designer-hosts are young up-and-comers in the design world, with a friendly but real rivalry as they try and best each other in each episode.

Each designer-host teams up with a homeowner-contestant. The teams meet the inspiration-room designer, view the room they must recreate on a limited budget, then each team performs their makeover in the homeowner-contestant’s house.

When the makeovers are done, the model-room designer visits the two homes and decides which team did the best job.

That team receives a high-end piece of furniture for their low-budget room.
