From the Catwalk to the Rooftop

During this episode of Celebrity IOU, world-famous supermodel Heidi Klum learned a new trade while renovating a home for her trusted housekeeper of 17 years, Lucia. Lucia and her husband share their home with their four grandchildren, their daughter and their son-in-law. While home improvements were always on this multi-generational family’s mind, unexpected illness and loss stalled their plans. With the help of Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott, Heidi got hands-on throughout the entirety of this reno, installing everything from floors to new shingles.

Surprising Lucia with a Remodeled Home

“Lucia is the American dream story. She came here from Mexico, worked and worked and worked and was able to buy her own house,” said Heidi. “She’s always had my back, and it feels good that now I can have hers, too.” With the help of the design team, Heidi set out to make Lucia's home chic, functional and ready for family gatherings.

After: The Dining Room

Removing walls was the first step in opening up the kitchen. A new, reoriented layout offers maximum functionality and improves the flow of the room. Light-toned hardwood floors warm up the now-modern space. Counter-height seats at the showpiece peninsula offer more space for dining and entertaining, while coordinating pendants and recessed lights make it bright.
