The couple explains to Genevieve that while they love the country feel of their new home, they also want it to have a modern and classic twist that suits their personalities.

Genevieve starts by exploring the home's living room space - an area with plenty of natural light and neutral colors ready for a fresh design.

She emphasizes the importance of texture in a design that blends modern and classic styles.

The homeowners are particularly excited to overhaul their bedroom space, which they view as an essential part of their home's design. Genevieve notes that their existing bedroom furniture is quite traditional, but that incorporating some sleek and modern pieces can give it the twist they are looking for.

To add a modern flair, Genevieve suggests painting the bedroom walls a deep moody color and incorporating some metallic elements. She specifically recommends replacing the bedroom lamps and the knobs on the dressers with sleek silver ones.

Throughout the episode, viewers witness Genevieve and her team working to execute the design plan for this modern classic home. They incorporate bold patterned fabrics with simple textured accents to create an overall aesthetic that is both modern and classic. The couple is thrilled with the final result and thanks Genevieve for her hard work and elegant design skills.
