Designer Christina Hall is used to renovating beachy California homes with husband Josh Hall in her show Christina on the Coast. In her new series, Christina in the Country, she expands her design business and connects with family, new friends and her Southern side in Tennessee — all while blending her signature modern aesthetic with a little bit of Southern charm. Here, HGTV brings you the best design ideas from the premiere season.

It's cozy and relaxing! Christina opened up this living room to create more space for the family. She also installed low, built-in cabinets for plenty of storage, new flooring, a stone accent wall and a light stone mantle (adding to the country-chic).

After this A-frame home was damaged in a fire, Christina’s team extended the ceiling and walls into what was previously a covered porch area to give the living area and kitchen more space. Then, she went with a sleek back-and-white color palette. Light furnishings contrast with dark paint around the fireplace and on the walls. A mix of natural textures pulls it all together.

Homeowners who like to host will love this idea. Complete with a floating rack, butcher block counters, dark tiles and bar stools to offset white walls, this rustic, country-themed bar off the main living space of this home is an entertainer's dream come true.
