Appearing for four presentations during the Home Show, they will describe the evolution of their small town home renovation business and their rapid success on HGTV, sharing their goal to inspire others to “own their space.” Joanna describes her design style as simple and classic, farm inspired, industrial, and unexpected. But she notes that “at the end of the day, I work for my client. My job isn’t to push my style on them, it is to pull their style out and make it all come together. I like the challenge of any and all design styles.”

When asked for a few tips for someone who wants to start freshening their home without a large budget, she suggests starting small with cosmetic changes or re-arranging a room to better fit the family’s needs. “Don’t be afraid to break the rules. For example, an unused formal living or dining room could become a playroom for the kiddos. I try to make the home work for the homeowners needs,” she said. “We try to encourage others to try something new and not be afraid to go with your gut. Just start.”

“For me, money spent on a home is an investment. I try to keep it simple with timeless and classic finishes, and accessories which are easily changed can be more trendy. I try to think how I can set a client up to enjoy their home ten years down the road so they are not constantly re-investing.”
Many of the homes shown on Fixer Upper that clients are considering purchasing are in need of extensive work and are labeled the worst house on the block, but Chip and Joanna can usually see the potential. “What you see on the show is really how the process works, we really do surprise the clients with the finished product,” she added. “It’s nerve-wracking trying to choose for others. When meeting with clients, I suggest they bring at least ten pictures from Houzz and Pinterest of rooms that speak to them. I try to find a recurring theme to give me a sense of their style. I’m terrified of not pleasing a client. As Chip says, this is a real renovation with a real client’s budget, and we face real budget issues.” The couple is busy but enjoying life. In addition to raising four kids, renovating their own home, owning a real estate sales company, and developing a gated community of villas in Waco, Texas, Joanna also has a retail online and storefront company, Magnolia Market. “Chip is a true entrepreneur. He has had many businesses, but this one has stuck,” Joanna said. “I think we both have found our passion.”

Design Trends on Display at Home Show Looking for a new kitchen sink or ideas for flooring? The Home Show is the place to find solutions for all your design dilemmas. At this year’s show, the latest finishes and products will be on display in a full size model home to allow patrons to touch and feel the surfaces in an actual room. Homebuilder and for-
mer HBA president Chris Ragland will build a 700 square foot one bedroom, one bathroom showhouse inside Bartle Hall open for Home Show visitors to walk through. “The purpose of the showhouse is to give consumers a chance to see some new finishes that are out there and also some new products available for building a home. It’s a very sophisticated, dreamy getaway,” said Chris of the structure. She hopes people will be inspired by the colors and finishes when they are building or remodeling their own home. Built with a covered porch, accents of reclaimed lumber, pebble-tiled flooring and solid-surface countertops, the showhouse will feature a variety of new design and construction elements. For example, the structure features a high-density engineered wood subfloor and a built-in zip system for the walls that provides a continuous air barrier for better energy efficiency. The frame of the showhouse was built
at McCray Lumber and Millwork, then taken apart and re-assembled and decorated inside Bartle Hall – in four days! The exterior features James Hardie shingle siding and trim. Ragland said this product has been popular in the other parts of the country and is gaining popularity here. It’s a concrete siding that can handle high humidity year round. It is durable product that is weather and pest resistant and very rarely requires painting. One side of the building shows the construction process in progress with the rafter trussing and roof underlayment exposed.
“I really enjoy working with homeowners to create their dream space,” said Chris.
