Designer Patti Wagner shares the joy as she shows renters affordable ways to make their rental feel more like a dream home.

About the Series

Minneapolis designer and social media influencer Patti Wagner brings her budget-friendly design tricks and modern style to renters around the city. All the makeovers are one room, in one day, with loads of renter-friendly ideas, because Patti believes that “home is home” even when you’re renting.

About the Host

Patti Wagner

A former product designer, Patti studied interior design and is a wife and mother of three. She believes in great design for all. When her family came to the United States from Laos, they could never afford to buy a home, so she knows what it's like to live in a rental that could use TLC. Now, she and her husband, Brian, thoughtfully renovate old properties in Minneapolis and turn them into boutique apartments. Patti's hope is that everyone, whether they own or rent, can live in a space that brings them joy and makes them feel “at home.”
