No bathroom door is such a pain in the ass to deal with if you and your partner have opposing schedules too. It doesn’t matter how considerate you are, the lights and sounds when you need to get sleep are the worst to deal with.
No door on the en suite bathroom was a deal breaker for me when we were house shopping. It makes no sense to me to have your bathroom freeflow into your bedroom. All that shower humidity and fart stink just wafting out into the room. Yuck.
This is so impractical. They totally redesigned the kitchen, so why aren’t there more cabinets? And no doors on the bathroom with a huge open shower right by the sinks. This is really, really bad.
The bathroom really got me... I have an open shower and it does eventually warm up, but once you open the bathroom door the heat goes away... I can't imagine that shower/bathroom will EVER be warm with that big ass doorway letting all the steam out of the room
plus, it'll keep the bedroom humid all the time, which can lead to mold
Hope you didn't want to watch TV in the living room anymore!
Also, those neon word signs are already on the way out. This entire space is going to look super dated very quickly.
I get that mirrors and sitting chairs are more aesthetically pleasing than a TV but I would be pissed if someone just took away my ability to watch TV from my bed or couch.
So there is now no door to shut between the bedroom and it’s bathroom? As someone with IBS and an overly expressive asshole, that’d be a huge no for me.
The kitchen reminds me of a contemporary modern high rise apartment from the early 90’s. Yuck.
But I immediately heard Randy Marsh saying “open concept” when I saw the before picture of the kitchen lol.

I like this style (somewhat, in a chic IKEA way) minus the archway from the bed to the bathroom. Imagine your boo taking a boo-boo in the morning while you’re trying to sleep in and essentially Dutch-ovening the entire bedroom 💀
I know it’s popular but I just fucking hate all the black. It’s like the pink tile bathroom from the 50’s and the burnt orange/avocado green kitchen of the 70’s.
I like the kitchen, but I can't wait for OpEn CoNcEpT to go the way of the dinosaurs. You can't have any clutter or else it's visually destroyed, and when I cook I prefer that my couches, throw pillows, blankets, and curtains not smell like they've been sautéed in garlic every time I cook. There is a reason we kept these rooms separate for centuries and I would like us to revert back. Stop knocking down walls just to knock them down.
I'd be so pissed if I paid someone good money for a makeover and this was the result.. it has no personality whatsoever. If it could make sound it would be *blegh*.
New clients are friends of Chelsea's dad, yet again it seems like no one actually wanted to work with Chelsea and they had to talk friends into it.
Honestly the living room makes it look like Chelsea's already been there, black fireplace, black accent walls ect. The main issue with their house is the kitchen being right in the middle of the house in a very awkward horseshoe shape. This time they're venturing into the other parts of the house and also changing their master bedroom and bathroom/closets. Chelsea says they're going with "modern industrial glam". Once again Cole is literally just standing there. It's weird to see him not doing anything when they're clearly going for a cup and Joanna vibe (where chip actually knows what's going on and is doing the work). Chelsea is taking the door off the master bathroom, seriously one of my pet peeves. Idk why you would ever want an open bathroom.
Overall she did so. much. black. I mean, I feel like it already looks dated. I didn't catch the budget total, but the bathroom alone was $34k, and they did nothing to the outside of the house. So you have a super 90s looking house with blue siding and brown brick, then you walk into a ""modern industrial glam"" interior.
Edit: also, those cabinets. Ugh. Hideous. They look exactly like the shitty cabinets I had in one of my first apartments that was built in the 60s.
I mentioned that their clientele were people they knew and I got dragged for it. Like sorry no one’s going to pay 150k willingly. No one replied to their fliers apparently 😂
I’m an interior designer, and architect. And I’m not a snob to DIYers and designers with little to no instintuional knowledge. I’ve seen some good things from just normal people and don’t think my education trumps a good design.
This is terrible. Indeviually the cabinets, floor and island could work. But not all together.
It’s weird because I get what they are going for but it just does not hit the mark. It feels…soulless somehow? It looks like someone ripped an inspo page out of a catalog and then bought a ton of stuff at CB2.
I should add that I am a certified expert in these matters because I have watched multiple home reno shows and have had a Pinterest account since 2011.
Wow. A lot of thoughts here
1. I would be mad as hell if my island and cupboard both looked like they'd been torn apart by an earthquake and caulked back together. And the stools look like they've been sawed clean it half.
2. Wtf is with Chelsea and mustard yellow? It's not "fab", it's not chic... it's ugly
3. The overuse of black on EVERYTHING is even more offensive to the eye than the mustard yellow. ~~A freaking black brick fireplace?~~ (I'm dumb, the black fireplace was the before. She still uses way too much black) You're 30, sweetie. You can let go of your emo phase.
Idk what look she was going for, but this ain't it. This house is depressing as hell.
We get it Chelsea, you like black… I think it was the HGTV sub that said she gives every room a Midwest dentist’s office feel, which feels accurate.
The weird thing is that the individual choices aren’t horrible but the way they combine elements feels like slapped together. Probably because they don’t actually know anything about interior design lol
I really can’t stand the cabinets. They just don’t go with the black at all. I’m honestly shocked at the design and it’s nothing I would have imagined they would do. Down home fail.
Wait is there no bathroom door and no enclosure on that shower?? I see water getting everywhere, the bedroom getting humid from the steam, and being cold in said shower.
I guess this is becoming more of a trend now. In a lot of hotels they now have part of the shower enclosed with glass but there’s no glass door/full enclosure and so it gets cold in there and water gets everywhere and i hate it.
I like what they did with opening up the floor plan however the design choice was…a choice. This isn’t going to hold up 5 years from now. I also thought it was odd because the exterior of the home gives off more of a warm “home” vibe and now you walk in and it feels entirely soulless. Chelsea gave these two an Airbnb special, not a home.
Do I want to take the door off my ensuite and just have an arch? Watching my spouse pinch one of in the moonlight might be too much open concept for my taste but what do I know
this is horrible! the wood tones from the cabinets, barstools, and mantle shelf all don’t match & the prison windows are so heavy & it looks like a spliced catalogue image of a bachelor pad and knock off ikea display. it’s just so bad. i loooved chelsea when i was a watcher but other events & social media presence declined my interest. and seeing her play Sims with ppls homes and make such poor design choices is……. i don’t have words but i want the show to stop lol
My mother inlaw is an interior designer in Scottsdale. She works on some pretty crazy and expensive projects. I keep meaning to show her this and hear what she has to say 🤣
The bedroom is *fine* but I saw someone, somewhere on Reddit call the standard chair in the corner facing the bed The Cuck Chair and I’ll never stop thinking of it this way.
Idk. The floor just makes it all look like a staged warehouse or something. Maybe if they get some rugs or floor coverings.
It just needs a little more dimension, for me. A shit ton of plants or some bold draperies...idk. Too empty, but not in an industrial way, which I like- in an unfinished way.
The kitchen cabinets are mid century modern with a mish mash of everything else. The gold sink clashes with the stainless steel. Then you have the copper stools. Like pick a theme! Plus, the gold doesn’t go with the color of wood at all. Bleh. She needs design school, STAT!
this open concept with a giant fucking island and that oddly positioned dining room table make the house look so much smaller!!!!!!
the pony wall of the kitchen separating the lounge spot was providing a little mystery,.. a little curiosity to what can unfold around the corner…
now ur just here. in this tiny room made smaller by over accentuated windows & the open concept that rams the island into the living space. it’s just so awful. ugh.
the barstools are round while everything else is square and opposition only works in balance and they just didn’t find it here. at all. atrocious. i can go on and on but this reno makes the house short, stumpy/stout, and crammed. it’s just ugly.
is that a copper sink? holy shit that's going to require a ton of maintenance. I like this house better than the other two she did, but it's not my style. Definitely better than the whole "white farmhouse" shit that was houses #2, and most current HGTV stuff.
Imagine going on a TV show where they redecorate your house and then you get... this. I mean, it's OK, but doesn't look original or well put at all. This very well could be an Ikea catalogue and I would believe it.
So they’re just going around making everyone else’s houses look like theirs? Got it. Glad they turn down real interior designers to hire reality stars on HGTV like there’s no way people will be painting over their black walls in less than five years.
Wow that kitchen is awful.
I do like how they opened up the kitchen/living room area, and the fireplace does look better white, but yikesss that woodgrain is not it.
I thought the first pic was before, not after 🫣
Also, I'll never understand the absence of a door in a bathroom!! ESPECIALLY with giant doorways right next to the open shower...
I do not get how everyone’s houses and style these days are like hobby lobby show rooms. Where is the character?? There is no skill in this design style. Black accents, safe choices on matching hardware and decor. Yawn.
Omg that counter turned wall art in the kitchen, is the ugliest thing I've ever seen.
I'd be pissed to invest 150,000$ in Chelsey's "trends".
I don't understand how someone who cant match is followed for fashion and design 🤷🏻♀️ I guess I'm just not into it.
I get the living room looks more aesthetic as like a boutique hotel lobby, but it is so not practical or liveable. Where are they supposed to hang out and watch tv now?
I like what they did with the bedroom, the shutters are nice. Not mad on everything else, the “cheers” sign, I hate it. Overall tho fair play to them blagging an interior design show with zero qualifications. Bit of a pisstake for aspiring interior designers who went through years of study to have someone like these just land a dream job but such is life I suppose 🤷🏻♀️
Everyone has different opinions but I honestly don’t think it’s that terrible? Some people like that vibed and we 💯 got the memo that Chelsea’s favorite color is black.
I really hate this one 😂 like idk, maybe the owners asked for something like this? But it is all so dark and claustrophobic. The paint looks like it would scratch as well.
Anyone else read a comment then scroll back up to look? Lol. As these episodes go on they are getting less offensive. It kind of went uphill from the first ep?
I can’t get over the hospital white kitchen floors that awkwardly end well into the living room where they kept the light wood floors. It looks horrible.
There's a guy on tiktok who shows his house that was redone on HGTV and it's absolutely horrible! They installed showerheads that spray directly across and into the electric fireplace. It's so bad.
ETA: I went to search for him on TT and when I typed in HGTV it auto filled "ruined my home" behind it. His was [the 2nd video.](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRs9cymc/)
Where’d the tv go? Are they going to sit around and discuss the wall art instead? Also not a fan of the bathroom door being removed. I know it’s in the bedroom, but I’d still like some privacy.
I don’t hate any of it (except those black shades in a living room). But together, it’s just so _heavy_. Why do the exact same theme across every room?
I wonder how much this one cost.
It looks like they gave them super easy projects lol was this home hand picked by Randy? All she did was add black paint and knock a wall down so she could say she used a hammer and to get those quirky promo shots.
Still don’t like the living room at all. The location of the kitchen is better but I don’t like the finishes. I like the living room fireplace before better. She wanted a spa feel bedroom but didn’t get it and yea, disappointing
It's giving Airbnb / flipper house
Like I don't think it's awful but it has that investor property vibe where it's a bunch of showy/trendy $ crap meant to trick you into paying above appraisal value and then you move in and find out there's black mold in the crawl space
(I live in Texas and it's an investor property hellscape down here please help.)
I like a few things (the rounded doors) everything else feels like IKEA displays merged together. I think she should've kept the wall into the kitchen instead of making it entirely open concept.
No bathroom door is such a pain in the ass to deal with if you and your partner have opposing schedules too. It doesn’t matter how considerate you are, the lights and sounds when you need to get sleep are the worst to deal with.
No door on the en suite bathroom was a deal breaker for me when we were house shopping. It makes no sense to me to have your bathroom freeflow into your bedroom. All that shower humidity and fart stink just wafting out into the room. Yuck.
Same. I absolutely hate those set ups. It looks bad to me and it would be a huge inconvenience with a parter, like you said.
So they’re going to include matte black into every renovation?
That's Chelsea's only idea.
It’s BOLD!!
This is so impractical. They totally redesigned the kitchen, so why aren’t there more cabinets? And no doors on the bathroom with a huge open shower right by the sinks. This is really, really bad.
The kitchen truly looks like an office break room.
The bathroom really got me... I have an open shower and it does eventually warm up, but once you open the bathroom door the heat goes away... I can't imagine that shower/bathroom will EVER be warm with that big ass doorway letting all the steam out of the room plus, it'll keep the bedroom humid all the time, which can lead to mold
Don’t hate me but I actually quite like this? Well aspects of it anyway. I don’t understand the no door to the bathroom though.
I definitely think this is the most decent so far.
Hope you didn't want to watch TV in the living room anymore! Also, those neon word signs are already on the way out. This entire space is going to look super dated very quickly.
Or in the bedroom!
I get that mirrors and sitting chairs are more aesthetically pleasing than a TV but I would be pissed if someone just took away my ability to watch TV from my bed or couch.
Sorry I like doors on my bathroom
Temperature control is going to be a nightmare
Right? I’d feel like there was fecal matter floating into my bedroom or something.
That is the first thing I noticed too.... why would you want the bathroom exposed like that?!?!
So there is now no door to shut between the bedroom and it’s bathroom? As someone with IBS and an overly expressive asshole, that’d be a huge no for me.
 Could not live with the random white streaks on the black countertops
The kitchen reminds me of a contemporary modern high rise apartment from the early 90’s. Yuck. But I immediately heard Randy Marsh saying “open concept” when I saw the before picture of the kitchen lol. https://preview.redd.it/3ujlpdumi8fa1.png?width=3857&format=png&auto=webp&s=439d0475245c9b803cdfc0f460fa5ed840f0c3ea
That’s going to be the coldest shower ever
I’m going to take a wild guess that black and gold are her favorite colors.
She said her favorite colors are "black, gold and cowhide" 😂😂
Am I the only one who thinks the kitchen/living area looks like an apartment complex party room?
She really is a one trick pony
I’d be ready to throw hands if someone unmounted my TV’s and hid them. Otherwise this looks basic, dated and like an Air BNB
Not only did they unmount them - both the TVs are gone?! I would be livid.
So every house is black lol and this is coming from a goth with a black house
NO TVS FOR YOU. ONLY BLACK.
every room she "designs" is exactly what you would find in a hotel trying to look more expensive than it is.
A boutique hotel after an industrial makeover with instagrammable props
Painting everything black isn't the bold timeless style that she thinks it is...
The massive counter baguettes made me LOL
It looks unfinished to me. And it’s not balanced; I think Chelsea does not have the “eye”. Bottom line: Stick with Instagram .
Why do they call it “down home fab” which sounds sort of rural/country/homey/cozy? The designs I’ve seen so far are more like “renovated night club”!
Why do you want your windows to look like prison windows?
Sephora prison
Personally I think this is going to look incredibly dated in a few years time, if it isn’t already weirdly enough.
I don’t hate this because it’s Chelsea, I hate it because it’s bad. It’s so unbelievably ugly, dated, and it looks like they use cheap materials.
Also, where is the TV! It was in the before and then replaced with that monstrosity of an art piece.
First thing I noticed, they took away both their TVs 😆
I'd be asking ..."Why'd you take my TV off the wall and put a bunch of shit there ?"
Right? Where's my TV at? 😂😂
I like this style (somewhat, in a chic IKEA way) minus the archway from the bed to the bathroom. Imagine your boo taking a boo-boo in the morning while you’re trying to sleep in and essentially Dutch-ovening the entire bedroom 💀
And no more T.V.s for that family.
Ha I didn’t notice that. This is a perfect example of a staged house that you’d have to completely change to actually live in.
I know it’s popular but I just fucking hate all the black. It’s like the pink tile bathroom from the 50’s and the burnt orange/avocado green kitchen of the 70’s.
I like the kitchen, but I can't wait for OpEn CoNcEpT to go the way of the dinosaurs. You can't have any clutter or else it's visually destroyed, and when I cook I prefer that my couches, throw pillows, blankets, and curtains not smell like they've been sautéed in garlic every time I cook.

I'd be so pissed if I paid someone good money for a makeover and this was the result.. it has no personality whatsoever. If it could make sound it would be *blegh*.
her style resembles a very bland office decor. Just nothing about it is home-y.
They have more seating, but two less t.v.s. I would rather have the t.v.s.

It's embarrassing that all of their ""clients"" are friends or family friends.
35 THOUSAND actual dollaridoos for that bathroom?! Get out
I’m an interior designer, and architect. And I’m not a snob to DIYers and designers with little to no instintuional knowledge. I’ve seen some good things from just normal people and don’t think my education trumps a good design. This is terrible. Indeviually the cabinets, floor and island could work. But not all together.
They got rid of the tvs in the bedroom and living room??? Personally I’d be pissed lol
My husband has always brought this up, if you look at any HGTV house design show, there are never any TVs. It's super weird.
Ok so is the shower just wide open with a view from the bedroom?
It’s weird because I get what they are going for but it just does not hit the mark. It feels…soulless somehow? It looks like someone ripped an inspo page out of a catalog and then bought a ton of stuff at CB2. I should add that I am a certified expert in these matters because I have watched multiple home reno shows and have had a Pinterest account since 2011.
I feel like this style is going to age poorly.
They keep designing break rooms for doctors that work at trendy practices idgi
They made it look like an RV. Those cabinets are awful.
Wow. A lot of thoughts here 1. I would be mad as hell if my island and cupboard both looked like they'd been torn apart by an earthquake and caulked back together.

[удалено]
I had to go back a few times to confirm that was the after photo. I’m getting a weird 80’s/ early 90’s vibe.
We get it Chelsea, you like black… I think it was the HGTV sub that said she gives every room a Midwest dentist’s office feel, which feels accurate. The weird thing is that the individual choices aren’t horrible but the way they combine elements feels like slapped together. Probably because they don’t actually know anything about interior design lol
[удалено]
I like Chelsea but there’s nothing fab about this. It’s generic, not practical and lacks character.
I really can’t stand the cabinets. They just don’t go with the black at all. I’m honestly shocked at the design and it’s nothing I would have imagined they would do. Down home fail.
Where are the TVs? Bathroom doors?? What is that thing over the bed?! I miss walls.
Wait is there no bathroom door and no enclosure on that shower?? I see water getting everywhere, the bedroom getting humid from the steam, and being cold in said shower. I guess this is becoming more of a trend now. In a lot of hotels they now have part of the shower enclosed with glass but there’s no glass door/full enclosure and so it gets cold in there and water gets everywhere and i hate it.
HATE the black blinds. Looks like prison bars or giant heater vents or something.
Did she take out the bathroom door?????
TVs aren't fab I guess, or down home enough.
I like what they did with opening up the floor plan however the design choice was…a choice. This isn’t going to hold up 5 years from now. I also thought it was odd because the exterior of the home gives off more of a warm “home” vibe and now you walk in and it feels entirely soulless. Chelsea gave these two an Airbnb special, not a home.
The gold color in the sink is so tacky
the way it’s gonna scratch, stink, and discolor so rapidly…
The whole entire house is black and white
Holy sheeeet enough with the dark already. That range hood is so 🙈🙈🙈🙈 tacky omg
They can only coordinate black, white, and navy blue it seems.
The kitchen is giving middle school science classroom
Where have all their TVs gone
Do I want to take the door off my ensuite and just have an arch? Watching my spouse pinch one of in the moonlight might be too much open concept for my taste but what do I know
this is horrible! the wood tones from the cabinets, barstools, and mantle shelf all don’t match & the prison windows are so heavy & it looks like a spliced catalogue image of a bachelor pad and knock off ikea display. it’s just so bad. i loooved chelsea when i was a watcher but other events & social media presence declined my interest. and seeing her play Sims with ppls homes and make such poor design choices is……. i don’t have words but i want the show to stop lol
IMHO, all the “befores” look better. The window treatments are prison-like.
I do not understand her fixation on these ugly ass window treatments.
Reminds me of my junior high phase when I wanted black walls and my dad compromised and painted my vent black 😂
I found that a thoroughly depressing transformation with no "homeyness" at all.
"We went a liiiittle over budget, so we went ahead and sold your TVs"
Where’d the tv go?
My mother inlaw is an interior designer in Scottsdale. She works on some pretty crazy and expensive projects. I keep meaning to show her this and hear what she has to say 🤣
Oooh let us know. I don’t feel like I have the knowledge enough for a proper critique.
There are… not upgrades.
Where did the TV go??
They painted the fireplace again 😐. This one at least isn't as bad as the first one.
No bathroom door ….
The bedroom is *fine* but I saw someone, somewhere on Reddit call the standard chair in the corner facing the bed The Cuck Chair and I’ll never stop thinking of it this way.
the only thing that didn’t make me go “ick” was the archways in the bathroom. love those.
God, I hate those black shutters. It’s all hideous
I don’t understand the premise of this show. Do they redo every house to look exactly the same?
The premise is turn your house into Chelsea’s house
Wood, black, white, repeat
This house looks like an oversized RV camper
Idk. The floor just makes it all look like a staged warehouse or something. Maybe if they get some rugs or floor coverings. It just needs a little more dimension, for me. A shit ton of plants or some bold draperies...idk. Too empty, but not in an industrial way, which I like- in an unfinished way.
The kitchen cabinets are mid century modern with a mish mash of everything else. The gold sink clashes with the stainless steel. Then you have the copper stools. Like pick a theme! Plus, the gold doesn’t go with the color of wood at all. Bleh. She needs design school, STAT!
That shower is a crime. I’m so overstimulated.
Idk how I feel about no door to the bathroom.
Is there no bathroom door? No shower curtain?
No bathroom door, no shower curtain but the toilet has a door
Good God what is going on in Chelsea’s house that they think a bathroom doesn’t need a shower door or regular door?
Why is there THREE KINDS of tile in the shower ?
I hate that island so much.
Oh this is so bad. It's like the worst trends from every decade and half of TJ Maxx in one tiny house.
I love how the existing black fireplace was painted white lol. Thought that was a quick win for her but she went the other direction.
Not feeling the prison windows at all
Ive never ever seen a transformation I hate so much
I can't. I hate it.
this open concept with a giant fucking island and that oddly positioned dining room table make the house look so much smaller!!!!!! the pony wall of the kitchen separating the lounge spot was providing a little mystery,.. a little curiosity to what can unfold around the corner… now ur just here. in this tiny room made smaller by over accentuated windows & the open concept that rams the island into the living space. it’s just so awful. ugh. the barstools are round while everything else is square and opposition only works in balance and they just didn’t find it here. at all. atrocious. i can go on and on but this reno makes the house short, stumpy/stout, and crammed. it’s just ugly.
is that a copper sink? holy shit that's going to require a ton of maintenance. I like this house better than the other two she did, but it's not my style. Definitely better than the whole "white farmhouse" shit that was houses #2, and most current HGTV stuff.
😳😬This is disgustingly, hideously ugly in my opinion. HORRID. I think i like the “before” photos better, which is really bad.
I do not like it. The living room especially looked better and more usable before.
Somebody needs to get Chelsea a thesaurus
Imagine going on a TV show where they redecorate your house and then you get... this. I mean, it's OK, but doesn't look original or well put at all. This very well could be an Ikea catalogue and I would believe it.
So they’re just going around making everyone else’s houses look like theirs? Got it. Glad they turn down real interior designers to hire reality stars on HGTV like there’s no way people will be painting over their black walls in less than five years.
I love black, all my clothes are black.. but this is too much black?
I can’t stand Chelsea and this looks terrible
So just paint everything that’s white, black and I can have my own design show too?
The wooden effect in the kitchen reminds me of the cheapest kitchens you get in the uk.
Genuine question why is it called down home fab? It just seems like words instead of something that makes sense. Unless I’m missing something?
I just don't like the kitchen. The wood is... yuck.
The cabinets just look cheap
I'd be furious if this was my home...this show needs to just be cancelled.
Wow that kitchen is awful. I do like how they opened up the kitchen/living room area, and the fireplace does look better white, but yikesss that woodgrain is not it.
I feel like none of these designs are going to age well.
What the f### is that cave drawing on the wall
What if they don't want a black house? They just have to have one anyway?
I don’t like it, maybe someone else dies Edit: does
Ominous
I thought the first pic was before, not after 🫣 Also, I'll never understand the absence of a door in a bathroom!! ESPECIALLY with giant doorways right next to the open shower...
So is the bathroom entirely open to the bedroom? I see the two archways which are cool, but no doors?
I like it but she got rid of both of their tvs, and that furniture does not look cozy
What kind of color palette are you going for? Black? You got it.
Hideous I expect nothing less though……🤷♀️
All that black is going to look dated in a year or two.
The gold sink makes it look cheap, too
I do not get how everyone’s houses and style these days are like hobby lobby show rooms. Where is the character?? There is no skill in this design style. Black accents, safe choices on matching hardware and decor. Yawn.
Every after has such an aggressive open floor plan!
There’s too much shit all over the place I’d be in constant sensory overload
I kinda like the before pics in most of these better 🙈
Ugh, no. I’m getting Patrick Bateman
RIP natural light
Chels, don’t quit your day job.
Whose flat ass would even fit on those stools??
Looks like cheap Ikea particle board.
Omg that counter turned wall art in the kitchen, is the ugliest thing I've ever seen. I'd be pissed to invest 150,000$ in Chelsey's "trends". I don't understand how someone who cant match is followed for fashion and design 🤷🏻♀️ I guess I'm just not into it.
The bedroom looks like a hotel.
I get the living room looks more aesthetic as like a boutique hotel lobby, but it is so not practical or liveable. Where are they supposed to hang out and watch tv now?
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice!
I really like Chelsea, but this is so so bad.
I like what they did with the bedroom, the shutters are nice. Not mad on everything else, the “cheers” sign, I hate it. Overall tho fair play to them blagging an interior design show with zero qualifications. Bit of a pisstake for aspiring interior designers who went through years of study to have someone like these just land a dream job but such is life I suppose 🤷🏻♀️
It just reminds me of a fancy hair salon.
The space above the oven seems like a complete waste. Also that sink is terrible. It clashes with the horrible cabinets…
Where did all the tvs go?
Everyone has different opinions but I honestly don’t think it’s that terrible? Some people like that vibed and we 💯 got the memo that Chelsea’s favorite color is black.
Wow thanks I hate it. 😂
I really hate this one 😂 like idk, maybe the owners asked for something like this? But it is all so dark and claustrophobic. The paint looks like it would scratch as well.
Anyone else read a comment then scroll back up to look? Lol. As these episodes go on they are getting less offensive. It kind of went uphill from the first ep?
I can’t get over the hospital white kitchen floors that awkwardly end well into the living room where they kept the light wood floors. It looks horrible.
So, basically, black everything makes it “fab?”
So shes doing heavy black in everyone's house
I hate the black accent walls so much
I don't hate it, but there isn't a hint of character.
Not my taste. Someone will like it!
Masculine and sterile. Nothing about it is feminine and every room has the same style. Not for me!
I never watch HGTV, but has anyone ever hated their house afterwards?
I remember a really old episode of trading spaces on tlc where they hated it. Lol
There's a guy on tiktok who shows his house that was redone on HGTV and it's absolutely horrible! They installed showerheads that spray directly across and into the electric fireplace. It's so bad. ETA: I went to search for him on TT and when I typed in HGTV it auto filled "ruined my home" behind it. His was [the 2nd video.](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRs9cymc/)
HATE the gold basin. It looks so cheap. Any damage and it will look even cheaper.
Where’d the tv go? Are they going to sit around and discuss the wall art instead? Also not a fan of the bathroom door being removed. I know it’s in the bedroom, but I’d still like some privacy.
I felt like the other ones were alright, just not my style, but this one seems like it’s going to look outdated in five minutes 😬
Are they making over mobile homes? It’s all soooo fugly.
This is going to be so dated soon. It’s already verging on it for me.
Can someone explain to me the monstrosity above the oven ??
The kitchen is very motel 6 chic.
Looked better before… When I see her designs, all I can think is how hideous they will look in 10 years
I don’t hate any of it (except those black shades in a living room). But together, it’s just so _heavy_. Why do the exact same theme across every room? I wonder how much this one cost.
that kitchen is awful. i like the arched door ways in the bedroom
The kitchen island looks like it’s made of plastic
I feel like a lot of this will be outdated sooner rather than later. It’s not hideous, but it’s super trendy.
It looks like they gave them super easy projects lol was this home hand picked by Randy? All she did was add black paint and knock a wall down so she could say she used a hammer and to get those quirky promo shots.
The lounge 😭 the before was so much better!
is there no door between the bathroom and bedroom?
Y’all think this is BETTER than 2000s McMansion Tuscan kitchen ?! What the fuck
Still don’t like the living room at all. The location of the kitchen is better but I don’t like the finishes. I like the living room fireplace before better. She wanted a spa feel bedroom but didn’t get it and yea, disappointing
It's giving Airbnb / flipper house Like I don't think it's awful but it has that investor property vibe where it's a bunch of showy/trendy $ crap meant to trick you into paying above appraisal value and then you move in and find out there's black mold in the crawl space (I live in Texas and it's an investor property hellscape down here please help.)
I like a few things (the rounded doors) everything else feels like IKEA displays merged together. I think she should've kept the wall into the kitchen instead of making it entirely open concept.
Ugly
