Evan Farmer

Scene One: The sky is blue, the sand golden, the sea warm and inviting. CUT
Scene Two: Evan walks into the seaside cottage with designer Nadia Geller and greets the homeowner; they walk into the main room of the cottage. CUT
Scene Three: Evan spies the glittering sea, runs straight out of the room ripping his clothes off as he goes and dives into the water. CUT
Scene Four: Design reveal with half-naked host making a large puddle on the floor. CUT!

Yes, it's true — every word of it. For those of a nervous disposition, fear not — nothing untoward is revealed. However, you may feel your cheeks blushing pink at intervals throughout this show.

It's all Audrey's fault, actually; she called us in to make over the living room of her family's seaside cottage for her husband, Mark, and, by default, their large extended family, who have deep feelings for this very special place. The 125-year-old, and utterly gorgeous, house is right on the beach in Connecticut. How could our host ignore the beckoning waves? How could Jason, Leslie and Nadia (gloriously hot and sweaty from their endeavors), not follow suit and frolic in the beckoning surf?

Now, please don't get the impression this is "WYWO on the Beach" (vacation edition). In two days our fabulous foursome transform this venerable but faded beach home into the epitome of seaside style. There's about 600 square feet of wall to be painted (double coat) and a bookcase in the shape of a boat to be built, but how much more enjoyable are one's tasks when one's in a swimsuit and all wet?
