Wendy and Geoff have been married for five years and have set up what be harmonious, family-suitable home. However, the living room is piled with couches, blocks of glass, exercise equipment and much more. The office is possibly even worse with chairs everywhere, an unusable idea board and so much clutter that Geoff can barely reach the mouse to use the computer. The junk is hauled out and team gets to work straightaway on sorting out this mess. As Tava and Peter work to eliminate the clutter, they discover Wendy's fixation with home-improvement projects, which she sometimes has as many as twelve running at any one time. After some sensible discussion, Peter talks her down to three or four and helps this couple to eliminate over 50% of their clutter --- a task they initially thought would be impossible. Angelo Surmelis brings in creative design ideas that work with Wendy and Geoff's fun and wacky tastes. The office is given a feeling of purpose and creativity, with Manhattan-skyline stripes, new desks, fabric, storage bins and an armoire. The family room features new plants, a bookcase, side tables, an overall fun look and even a special area for Wendy and Geoffs' creatively named pet turtle --- Turtle.moreless
