Scott Foley tasks seven talented designers handpicked by Ellen DeGeneres with their first furniture-making challenge: transforming basic raw materials into show-stopping signature pieces.
Ellen's wife and special guest Portia de Rossi gives the designers their next challenge: use the color, form, and general feeling of a painting from her art publishing company to inspire an original piece of furniture
The remaining competitors work against the clock to incorporate a 3D geometric shape - from a humble cube to a 20-sided icosahedron - into a furniture design of their choice
Jockeying for a spot in the finals, the designers face their most ambitious challenge yet: bringing a surprise element to a multi functional piece of high-end furniture
For their final challenge and the $100,000 prize, the remaining designers face the ultimate test: creating a cohesive three-piece collection for an iconic Los Angeles home.
