    Sledge Hammer Design

    I agree with all of the negative comments. This is a sham and an embarrassment to all credible Designers. I am licensed ASID..I have designed the interiors of multi million dollar homes as well as moderately priced homes for 45 years. Shame on HGTV for giving this airtime. And I also noticed they were either drunk or stoned in several scenes. Not funny. They will never be published in Architectural Digest..that is for certain. They havent RESTORED anything. Instead they have DESTROYED..and dont have a clue about architectural history. Get them off the TV. They are enticing more wannabes in the industry. Has HGTV gone crazy ??

    It's Not In How Many Details Were Added, But How Many Were Left!

    The Fords give us new and refreshing design without losing the flavor of the original! I'm so sick of signature shiplap, excessive outscapes, and big budget makeovers looking just like every other. The late 20th century gave us boring white walls (or builder's blah beige). Fords give us a New White in a pallette of Textures, Shapes, and Shades. It's almost painting in the negative. Leann has highlighted signature style features by paring away the extraneous without destroying the flavor. New, creative features are meant to reinterpret for new perspectives. It is Really Difficult to pull off what this bro/sis team is doing. The Fords are far from the stoner high implied by some. They're great at appearing laid back; I think they have their priorities squared up fine.

    There renovations make me want to cry for the homeowner

    They start with a house with amazing details and then pull them out. Fireplace tiles, woodwork, amazing windows -- GONE. The worst was that lovely house that was all white. ALL WHITE. Now I assume the homeowners know when they hire these two that they're getting things painted white, And I hope they give permission to take things out that made the house so special. But I just can't watch this much longer. I'm always hoping that there will be an episode that really does embrace the existing home. Also, I wonder why people who love "modern" even buy historic homes to begin with.

    Are these two stoners or what? Disappointed.he should get them both cleaned/ sobered up before you put them in front of a camera

    Disgraceful and Appalling

    Being in the construction and interior design business I am appalled by the design and craftsmanship this show is putting forward. I watched one episode where you could literally see discrepiencies in every grout line for the flooring tile. I saw unfinished painting and sloppy finish work. I was excited to see a new design show and am beyond disappointed about how these two work together. This show is ruining HGTVs good name.
