If you eat under stress, your food becomes mildly poisonous when it mixes with these stress chemicals. That's an excellent reason why nobody should pay money for a designer to make them feel oppressed while eating.

    Usually I'm not a fan of Noz but I really like her design this time, the furniture works really well together

    Loved the floor idea by Noz, generally a big fan of the Japanese zen aesthetic, the materiality of the sink threw me off though. Loved the concept but don't think she fully managed to weave it together. Joy was alright. It certainly made me think of granny style. Darren was daring and for once I wasn't mad at the materials he picked. That was a playful innovative design. Clever pull up bed. Cool stone floor. The red glass was a vibe. Sure all very BDSM, but can't deny the consequent execution of the theme here.

    A luxurious red light district??? NO way! Worst of the worst.
    Noz is finally growing up. Still whimsical elements, but not as childish.
    Joy is taking the cake on this one.

    That green garage is goals - wish I had a yard for plants like that.
