Before: This exercise room is located in the basement of a newer home. The homeowner uses it daily, but the stark walls and harsh lighting don't make it as inspiring as she'd like it to be.

After: The TV is now wall-mounted on the other side, which frees up valuable floor space while the blush-colored walls with subtle glaze stripes and warmer light bulbs turn the room into a calming oasis for Pilates, yoga and cardio activities.

Before: An unsightly water hookup is a potential walking hazard so a table prevents this but isn't the most attractive solution.

After: Three cabinets disguise the hookup and offer plenty of storage for weights, towels, yoga mats plus a few pretty scented candles.
Hosts Matt Fox and Shari Hiller transform an industrial-looking exercise room into a spacious and serene workout sanctuary. The homeowner, who uses the room nearly every day, expresses her desire for more floor space and a more inspiring atmosphere. Adding just enough color to the walls, just enough storage and just the right accessories help create the perfect environment.
