Classic, Contemporary Family Room
Both of these competing couples have been married for 23 years. They've also been friends and neighbors for a long time and are going to try to recreate the comfortable, weighty furnishings and fireplace of the family room designed by Jaqueline Glass.

In the classic, contemporary room, everything is on a large scale from the height of the room, the wide expanse of windows and French doors to the oversized cove or cornice moldings and baseboard. Items like the faux limestone fireplace, rough slate floor, velvet on the couches and chenille throws provide a variety of textural elements to the room.

The model room cost $40,000 to complete, so the homeowners will have $4,000 each to try and duplicate it.
