In this gallery we offer you an exclusive first look at some of the designs and details you can expect to see in the upcoming season of HGTV's Fixer Upper, as well as an assortment of behind-the-scenes moments, snapshots and candid pics of your hosts, Chip and Joanna. Fear not. There will be lots more photos to come. Think of this collection merely as a season-four sampler.

As we hinted earlier in a blog post on I-Heart-HGTV, you can expect some new and different things in the coming episodes of Fixer Upper as well fresh takes on familiar themes. (Spoiler alert: There will be cupcakes.)

Things you can expect in the new season include – but are by no means limited to – a focus on more unique and tucked-away spaces, lots of kids' rooms and at least one space created with four-footed occupants in mind.

For Joanna-design devotees, expect a new take on shiplap and (wait for it) ventures into bolder, brighter colors. Don't worry, though. The soft grays, bright whites and subtle shades of blue aren't likely to go away.
