Character is arguably the most important aspect of design. No matter how beautiful your finishes or how high-quality your materials, a house that feels like a showroom will never draw you in the way a place with a more lived-in energy does.
On this week's episode of HGTV's Celebrity IOU, Zach Braff worked with Drew and Johnathan Scott to infuse personality into his friend's bare-bones home. The Spanish-style results are stunning. Though Braff's friend Mark's home was build in the 1930s, by the time he bought it a series of ill-planned renovations had left the space feeling cold, uninviting, and disjointed. Braff collaborated with the property brothers to gift Mark's family the renovation of a lifetime; transforming the space from a simple house into a beautiful and highly functional home.
