The Story of Home

During summer in upstate New York, home designers Tara and Percy head outside to work on some projects; they build a Dutch-inspired rock-and-wood sauna; Tara works on getting the garden beds ready for next year.

While Tara and Percy get the house ready for the holidays, they renovate the bathrooms; they attempt to make their own tempera paint, but have trouble translating the Swedish directions.

Winter has arrived, and it's getting harder to stay warm; Tara and Percy install storm windows to keep out the cold; they renovate the guest and main bedrooms in preparation for a visit from Tara's mom; they struggle stamping a pattern on the walls.

It's summer and time to work on the outside of the house; Tara and Percy paint it a beautiful off-white and enlist the help of friends to build a garden greenhouse; Percy's mom visits to help with the landscaping.

Home designers Tara and Percy have been using the living room of their farmhouse as their sole living space for so long that it has a lot of clutter and mess; it's finally time to renovate, and it's proving to be overwhelming.

Winter is right around the corner and Tara and Percy are working hard to finish their home; their biggest project yet is the kitchen, and with friends on the way to see the house, the designers work tirelessly to get it done.

After years of working for others, interior designers Tara and Percy decided to claim an old home in upstate New York for themselves. It's hard to live in a house while renovating it, but the results are beautiful.
