Kirsten and Joel have short commutes. She's a Realtor who works from the home office, while Joel is a sales representative with a make-shift workspace in their master bedroom. To help this couple reclaim their bedroom, Brian and Sarah look to the backyard for space to retrofit an old shipping container into an office.

Tina is a professional chef and amateur cake decorator. She and her husband, Patrick, have two young boys and 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.
