On my show last week we met Stephan and Pascal Jean. They had a huge backyard that was for the dogs, literally. They empty space had tons of potential. They wanted an entertaining family oasis but had no idea how to spend their budget of $8500. That’s where I came in. . .They are from the Caribbean and this design style is a vibrant blend that mixes colors & fabrics. Tell me what you think of the finished product!

SPLURGES:
