Designscapes Colorado was one of three teams charged with devising an attractive, low-budget front yard for a 1940s Denver bungalow on this show filmed just more than a year ago. Hosts Mark Totty and Marianne Curan take viewers through an outdoor transforation as the competitive plant planners vie for the homeowner’s taste and space. The show concludes with an elegant outdoor makeover and, naturally, the residents’ reaction to the job. Phil Steinhauer of Designscapes said in a press release it was tough for his Centennial-based team to noodle the budget and physical constraints of the bungalow project but ultimately fun to flex their craft in front of a camera.
