They learn a secret long hidden from them when an unspeakable tragedy occurs.

Raisa is an artist and designer who relies on her love of colour, design history and nature to create one-of-a-kind spaces.
Austin is a builder and woodworker who is passionate about incorporating unique custom pieces into each project.
Together in each of the six episodes, the design duo will help these new homeowners revamp their lacklustre first place using sweat equity, clever design decisions and their boundless creativity.
In the series premiere, "Growing Family Renos": Raisa and Austin help two pairs of homeowners, each with a $50,000 renovation budget and a desperate need for some personalisation.

With the help of Raisa and Austin, both first-time homeowners will receive a thoughtfully designed, personalised home that they never dreamed possible.
