  • (uplifting acoustic guitar music)

  • - Hi! I'm Christiane Lemieux.

  • Founder of Dwell Studio.

  • And we're overhauling Judy and Benji's bathroom with

  • some help from our friends at Sterling, a Kohler company.

  • Judy and Benji have a lovely family with three young girls.

  • When they moved into their current house,

  • they spent a lot of effort designing the living areas,

  • but they left their bathrooms very basic.

  • - When we were building the house,

  • this was the last place we put any money

  • or any decisions into.

  • - Yeah.

  • - So, when I was picking the sink,

  • the toilet, I literally told the contractor,

  • just get the most afforable thing.

  • - [Christiane] They want to update their master bathroom

  • and their kids bathroom with a new look,

  • and a whole lot of style and functionality,

  • but without breaking the bank.

  • - They want something very open, very simple.

  • - Light, I'm used to like that light look.

  • - But still have more of a different design.

  • - [Benji] There is no design in here.

  • - [Christiane] Judy and Benji gave me some great direction

  • about what was important for them,

  • and we're collaborating to bring

  • their dream bathrooms to life.

  • - You know me, I like that spa-like type of feel.

  • So something that's just relaxing

  • and I just don't get that feeling

  • when I see our tub right now.

  • - You just don't feel like you wanna

  • spend a lot of time in here.

  • - I wanna help them create something

  • functional and very chic, but unexpected

  • that will help them raise the design value of their home.

  • - Our shower reminds me of the college dorm's showers.

  • - Oh totally, totally.

  • - So you know, you just have, the right amount of space

  • where you just have to sit still

  • and you can't really do much.

  • - The shelving in here just is not functional.

  • - I love how you bought this though,

  • and it falls apart every time you shower.

  • - My design plan needs to keep this growing family in mind.

  • We want to accommodate their current and future needs,

  • without compromising style or the home's resell value.

  • - Yeah, the problem is, it's not as functional in here.

  • Like there's a space for stuff, but it's like, awkward.

  • So hopefully getting places where

  • we can actually store everything properly.

  • - We're gonna better utilize this space they have,

  • and transform it to create beautiful

  • new bathrooms that are so gorgeous,

  • they're gonna wanna leave the doors open.

  • Like any overhaul project, there are some challenges.

  • Judy and Benji are a busy couple

  • running successful daily YouTube channels,

  • so we have a limited timeframe,

  • when they can fit in a remodel.

  • We need quick and easy solutions.

  • And with three little girls, they need bathroom products

  • that will be durable and easy to clean.

  • The Sterling products that we'll be installing

  • have great everyday style that

  • really fits Benji and Judy's personality.

  • Sterling delivers the quality and innovation

  • you'd expect from Kohler,

  • they're functional and stylish.

  • And Sterling uses an innovative material called, Vikrell.

  • Vikrell makes life easier.

  • It won't chip, crack, or peel.

  • It resists stains and scratches, and it wipes clean.

  • The lightweight modular design makes

  • installation quick and easy.

  • You just snap together the tongue and groove construction,

  • and install it directly onto the studs,

  • without adhesive, and with minimal to no caulk.

  • You can even get unique details,

  • including shelving, tiles, and grout lines.

  • Having gorgeous new bathrooms can be

  • like having a spa in your own house.

  • It's a great place to relax and unwind.

  • I wanted to create a sanctuary for Judy.

  • As the mother of three, she deserves it.

  • Throughout the series, you can jump over to

  • my YouTube channel to see all the tips and tricks

  • I used to create these gorgeous bathrooms.

  • And like usual we're gonna have all kinds of

  • extras on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter.
