When space inside the house is feeling maxed out, finding solutions outside and expanding the living space by tapping into a backyard's potential can help.

Dave and Jorge love art and entertaining, but with tenants in their basement and no creative space inside, Brian and Sarah turn their backyard into a creative party lounge and build a shipping container-inspired structure for an industrial feel.

Matt, Mary and their 2 kids don't use their backyard because the neighboring ravine has taken over. Brian and Sarah face environmental challenges to create a beautiful, entertaining and play space for the whole family to enjoy.

Amy & Terry love nothing more than spending time outside with their daughters. Brian and Sarah build a dream enclosure to hang out in on summer nights, with a swimming pool change room and a new deck where Terry can grill.

Tina and her husband Patrick have a home that is overrun with both baking supplies and soccer equipment. To extend this family's living space, Brian and Sarah turn their backyard into one part cake decorating studio and one part soccer field.
