Home design is not what it used to be. As popular looks start to make everything feel the same, it’s becoming harder to stand out, create the right style for your home, and maximize value — unless you know exactly what your house needs. When you have insider knowledge about the newest looks, best technologies, and DIY approaches, home design truly becomes an incredibly rewarding experience. To help guide you through the process, Chip and Joanna Gaines will share their invaluable wisdom and experience, and designer Emily Henderson will walk you through the new rules of home design.
