Trashformers

Two teams of upcycling designers have three days to dig into 28,000 pounds of a discarded school bus, as they compete to turn junk into funk. Can they create high-fashion, must-have items out of a heap of rubber and steel? Host Brooks Atwood advises these daring design gurus as they race against time, but will they come up with anything of value? Or will the bus stop here?

Given a broken down plane to play with, our two competing teams of upcycling designers really need think outside the box as they attempt to turn this piece of junk into high-end products. Bags, lamps, a guitar--there's no end to their ingenuity, but if they can't get the products finished in three days' time, their total earnings will be a big fat zero. Host Brooks Atwood advises on style and construction, but in the end one team will win, and the other will crash and burn.

Two teams of upcycling geniuses compete over three days to turn a rusted old Ferris wheel into must-have high-end products. But how easy is it to make fashionable items when your raw materials are rickety old seats? The contestants struggle like never before when faced with this behemoth and their lives will get even tougher when the judges hate the work in progress. There's only so much host Brooks Atwood can do to salvage this effort.
