HGTV Showdown: Bachelor Pad Battle

Tune in Sunday night at 10/9c for this week’s installment of HGTV Showdown when designer David Bromstad (Color Splash) and carpenter Marcus Hunt (Hammer Heads) battle against designer John Gidding (Designed to Sell) and carpenter Jared Walker Dostie (Rate My Space) to make over this spatially-challenged studio apartment.

On the topic of your thoughts, how would you caption this photo?:hhgsd303_jamie-in-sign-blog-small1

  2. I have an apartment roughly the same size and I would like to build some of the pieces featured in John Gidding and Jared Walker Dostie room. Only I can't find a how to. Is there a way for HGTV to make the plans avalible?

  3. Our pad looks pretty close to this except we used glss subway tile on the wall that gets light from the window.
