Dawn And Kurtis' Garage Gridiron

But Dawn wants to use part of the room for her craft projects. Keyshawn needs to come up with a design that will please both of them. Dawn digs in her heels when Keyshawn and his team propose a wall color that she feels is too dark and manly. Kurtis likes the dark color, but is reluctant to stand up to Dawn. Keyshawn finds himself acting as both coach and referee as he tries to convince Kurtis to "man-up" and Dawn to trust his design decisions. He was an all-pro wide receiver for the New York Jets, the Dallas Cowboys, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But now Keyshawn Johnson is going to play on a different field altogether. Watch as the former N.F.L. star tries to make a new name for himself in the world of interior design.

Keyshawn comes up with an "Old Hollywood" style for the room, but he and Nancy disagree on just about every element of the design. Some clients require a lot more give and take than Keyshawn had ever anticipated and he has to set his pride aside and grudgingly compromise to get the job done.

Jessica And Chris's Neutral Zone

But Jessica and Chris block grand plans to get rid of their bare white walls because they favor a much more conservative, minimalist look, which, for Keyshawn, means "boring." Finally, he comes up with a plan for a Mid Century Modern style that just might save the game.
