Design Remix : Episode HDMIX-705 -- More Projects »

Cris and Will Michel have a cold and unwelcoming basement that they want to be able to use to entertain friends and family. When host Karen McAloon rummages for things to remix this basement, her hands come up a little bit empty. The solution is unprecedented in Design Remix history—breaking the $50 budget! The team gets creative and uses their trademark skills to create a casual basement lounge.
