Designers get into six teams of two and three days to design a great room, three bedrooms, a den, and a design studio and lounge.

The White Room Challenge using items from a home and garden store.

The remaining seven designers must create small lounge areas for a party thrown by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. Each lounge must be inspired by a different time/design period seen in the history of Hollywood. For their Camera Challenge, the contestants must speak publicly to the event's guests about their space.

Designers randomly select different color hues and work on different condominiums and appear on National Daytime Show, The Talk.
