About this season
When a kitchen is so dysfunctional and ugly that every night is take-out, Spice Up My Kitchen steps in to cook up a hot new space. Designer Lauren Lake and her carpenter duo, Jeff Devlin and Mark McGraw, take kitchens that the homeowners think are outdated or ugly, tear them down and rebuild them from scratch -- providing the homeowners with brand-new kitchens. Designer Lauren Lake presents the homeowners with two design plans based on their budget and wish list. The homeowners choose a plan then before they know it, their old kitchen is transformed into a delicious new space.
