Private Notes
In this episode, Bronson Pinchot takes an awkward space and transforms it into a room straight out of George Washington's home. Affectionately known as the Federal Sitting Room, the space that Bronson and his team recreate is brought to life with a beautiful fireplace surround built from salvaged materials, including moldings from 1790 and wallpaper from 1805. The room's focal point is a large plaster bust from the 18th century in the corner. These relics help create an elegant space that transcends time.
It's Bronson's dream come true - he's found an entire Greek Revival home and has bought the salvage rights to it. Now it's time to take it apart while saving the valuable elements.

Braveheart to motivate his crew.

It seems that everyone has at least one room in their home that lacks purpose, definition and cohesion. In Bronson's world it's the entry to his Decker house that is a scattered mess of mismatched ceilings, floors and lacks and clear purpose or definition. Bronson seeks to tame this unruly space with a beautiful salvaged floor, the addition of beautiful wavy glass windows, a new ceiling and one very special antique to anchor it all. Tune in to see if Bronson can turn this mess into a success?
To most people a mudroom is just an afterthought - a filthy room to store boots and other items, but not Bronson! Bronson wants his mudroom to be as equally beautiful as any of the other rooms in his house. Using architectural salvage and some clever design ideas Bronson seeks to take a room that's usually all function and turn it into pure form.
