 Expanding on the basic concept of the popular "Trading Spaces" home improvement show, this reality series watches while two neighboring families completely redo one room in the other s homes, each with the help of its own interior decorator and the shared services of one carpenter. As with its predecessor, the task must be accomplished in only 2 days using a thousand dollars; instead of two-person homeowner teams, however, this version incorporates the entire family in the makeover process - including the kids. While initially borrowing some of the main show s talent, the "TS: Family" spinoff introduces new faces to its staff of designers and also features its own host and carpenter.
