I think it's great that AT shows 'budget' conscious solutions as well as the high end that is unattainable to most of us. I try to do that with my clients--working with what they have already with a few small additions instead of breaking the bank.

This is off topic a bit but very cool!! HGTV's Designed to Sell did a space in Atlanta where the designer did a fire place that uses gel and mounts on the wall. There was also a window seat, that when put together looked like it undulated up the wall. Very Cool!
