TV-PG
Brent Hull opens the series by exploring what it truly means to build an authentic home—one that tells a story rather than follows a trend. Drawing from historical architecture and traditional craftsmanship, the episode explains how materials, proportions, and details work together to create narrative and permanence. A kitchen inspired by the 1940s serves as a case study, where carefully chosen appliances and finishes reflect an era without imitation. By prioritizing intention over novelty, Brent shows how modern homes can preserve historical essence while remaining fully functional for contemporary life.
