Before

After getting married 30 years ago, homeowners Cathy and Jack Clifford moved into a two story boxy home that's stuck in the '70s. They're finally moving out and want to bid adieu to their home in style. Daniel Ownes, the designer, wants to thaw out this frozen-in-time house by sprucing up the outside, fixing the rickety stairs and transforming this forgotten landscape into an out-of-this-world treasure.

After

Here's how they accomplish it:

restain the redwood siding with a dark brown stain
replace the balcony railing to make room for a larger balcony
rebuild the stairs and add new wrought iron balusters
change out the double front doors with glass paneled doors to add more light
add two transoms over the front doors for more light in the entry
new landscaping with a crop circles look
add a light fixture to entry and replace old ones
new house numbers, mailbox, doorbell
