Season 2: Surf's Up

For season two's challenge, each designer was given a budget of $399, two gallons of paint and free range of the 99-cent store to make their money stretch. Todd Davis immediately grabbed the cotton balls and kitty litter to turn his white room into a "high-tide barrel" with a monstrous wave crashing through the "living room," creating chaos on the left and normality on the right. He used the cotton balls to create foam and kitty litter to form sand on the floor. By sawing through the furniture and attaching it to the walls in a planned but disorderly way, he made the painted wave essentially come to life.
