Spouse vs. House

SPOUSE VS. HOUSE is a reality makeover series designed to test couples' design and relationship skills. In each episode, a couple is given $25,000 for a three room home remodel. The twist? The wife and kids must leave the house for three weeks before making any design decisions, leaving the husband to complete the entire do-it-yourself project on his own. Cameras follow as husbands struggle with construction challenges, budget woes, and the pressure of trying to figure out their spouses' design choices. To help the wives cope with the lack of control over the project, they meet with Flipping Out designer Ryan Brown to create a life-size replica of the room of their dreams to be shown to their husbands two days before the reveal. After seeing their designs, each husband must determine if they have the time, money, and/or desire to adjust their renovation accordingly. When project is over, the wives return to a remodeled home that is (hopefully) to her liking.
