New York City: Harlem

Trading Spaces redecorates two Harlem rooms in this episode. Designers Laurie Smith and Kia Steave Dickerson want to create a second renaissance of their own for these out-dated rooms.

Carpenter Amy Wynn Pastor has her hands full with a Murphy bed install in Kia's house while in Laurie's house there is a hole in the ceiling that needs serious attention. Always up for the challenge, Amy Wynn tries to balance showing off fine handiwork with finishing on time.

Speaking of time, it's a race to the finish in Kia's house, and Paige has brought her stopwatch with her. When she says ""times up,"" she means times up!
