Oh, my gosh, Santa Fe.
This jewel of the south west shines bright,
Official YIFY movies site: YTS.MX
and so does its newest gem...
...the HGTV Smart Home 2023 .
[chuckling] Oh, my God!
[Tiffany Brooks] I'm lead designer, Tiffany Brooks...
Hey!
...getting help from home inspector and build expert,
Joe Mazza...
Well, you know, I'm safety Joe over here.
[Tiffany] ...and the queen of vintage shopping,
Lauren Makk.
They're gonna be... [kisses] ...chef's kiss.
[Tiffany] I'm loading this house will ultra-modern products and gadgets
that will change the life of one lucky winner.
This is so cool!
[Joe Mazza] No way!
[Tiffany] Best thing about it,
all this could belong to you.
Isn't it gorgeous?
We're giving away this fully-furnished home,
an all-new, all-electric EQE Sedan from Mercedes Benz,
and $100,000 in cash.
It's a total prize package worth over $2.2 million.
I have never been in a home so beautiful like this one.
[Tiffany] This one's the best.
I suggested Santa Fe as the destination
for the HGTV Smart Home 2023,
and they listened to your girl.
I love that this is the oldest state capital in the U.S.A.,
and it's just so full of history.
I'm heading over to the hotel next from the airport.
Gonna meet up with Joe Mazza, and then we're gonna head over to the house.
Hey, buddy!
Hi, Joe!
Good to see you.
Joe's taking a break from filming his show
What's Wrong With That House?
to lend some of his expertise.
I'm so fired up to, like, start working on this project.
[Tiffany] So, Joe's gonna come in,
and make sure that all of my grandiose design ideas
can happen safely from a construction standpoint,
and from a functional standpoint in this house.
This is so different than New York.
[Tiffany] I was driving in, and just taking in the architecture,
all the beauty.
Yeah, I pulled over probably about 15 times,
and I loaded my phone picture.
So, anyway, the builders, actually, are waiting for us at the house.
My car's ready outside.
Typically, I take my motorcycle.
I'm gonna spare you the anxiety attack.
Thank you. Maybe a second, third time.
All right, I'mma go check-in,
drop my bag off, and I'll meet you at the car.
Car!
I'm really loving the unique style of the architecture
of the homes and the businesses that I'm seeing down here.
They call this "Santa Fe style".
Originally, it was a dobie dried earth,
but now, you know, we can get that same look
with modern building techniques.
[Tiffany] It's just inspiration everywhere.
I've never been to another area of the country
where I'm vibing out like this.
[Joe] The majority of the roofing systems here are flat.
The reason why they use a flat roof,
you can see all... Look at the mountains, look at the landscape.
[Tiffany] Oh, oh, oh, so, it's a little pitch to see over.
Yeah, you keep everything low...
[Tiffany] Ohhh!
...you don't block that view.
[Tiffany] There's our people.
[Valerie Montoya] Hi! How are you?
-Good! Nice to see you. -[Valeria] Nice to see you.
The build team for the HGTV Smart Home 2023
is Valerie and Joe Montoya.
They're the cutest married couple
here in Santa Fe,
and they build the most amazing homes.
- It looks amazing! -[Valerie laughing]
You guys are really rocking and rolling.
[Valerie] Thank you, we've been working so hard
to keep your schedule.
Last week, we installed all the skylights.
They're strategically placed throughout the home
to capture the natural light and bring it inside.
Insulation happened a couple of days ago.
And tomorrow, we're getting ready to start the drywall.
-Okay. -Beautiful, beautiful.
Oh, my God, I have been so excited to see it.
I am here to see my baby.
Well, I want you to go on in 'cause it's ready for ya.
[Tiffany] Okay. Okay, cool!
We're building 3,000 square feet of smart style.
The entry leads to a sun-drenched open living,
dining and kitchen space.
The front wing has two guest rooms.
One with a projection TV,
LED lights for vibing out,
and bunk beds with built-in chargers and storage.
The separate main suite is a sanctuary
with a massive closet and wet room.
Three outdoor living spaces
take advantage of the sprawling yard,
and I cannot wait to show Joe all of my ideas.
This is the entryway.
Big. This is huge!
[Tiffany] We have to have it functional with a table,
some art work, sconces,
- I'm really gonna do it up down here. -[Joe] Yeah.
-Okay, so, Joe... -Yeah.
[Tiffany] ...this may be the greatest great room I've ever designed.
- It's massive! -[Joe] Huge!
[Tiffany] Yes.
- So, we have a family room area over here... -[Joe] Okay.
[Tiffany] ...there's the dining room area here,
and then there is the kitchen area here.
-Actually, can I point out one thing over here? -Of course, yes.
[Joe] The insulation, they have these pilot holes right here,
and that's where they blow the insulation in,
and it fills up these cavities.
-Ooh. Right. -So, that's just gonna keep that cold air outside,
and keep the warm air on the inside,
and vice versa throughout the seasons.
-Nice! -Yeah, yeah.
This is one of my favorite kitchens.
This large window is actually a pass-through
to an outside kitchen,
dining area, and another living area.
So, you have the beautiful windows here,
that makes it easier to pass everything right outside.
I have quite a number of smart ideas for this kitchen.
One of my favorite things about this kitchen
is that I'm actually doing
my take on an appliance garage.
It's going to look like a wall,
but it's actually gonna move upwards and slide back.
Do a reveal to a toaster,
air fryer, whatever you wanna hide back there.
[Joe] Okay. Smart. I love that.
- There's a lot more to show you... -[Joe] Show me.
...i.e. the main retreat area.
-[Joe] All right. -'Kay, just through here.
-[Joe] Everything just gets bigger and bigger. -It does!
This is the main bedroom suite.
By the ceiling heights being so high,
this humungous window for the views,
I mean, it's just grandiose,
-and it's just over-the-top luxury. -Yeah.
The bed is gonna be right here.
-Right along this wall. Yeah. -Ohhh, I know why.
-Oh, I know you why. -Right? Right? Right?
One lucky winner can gaze at the stars right here.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
-Now, the main bathroom and closet spaces... -Mmm-hmm.
...are ridiculously large.
Very grand space here.
We have a vanity over here,
there's going to be towel warmers over here,
this is your dressing room slash closet space.
[Joe] As big as a bedroom.
And this, my friend...
[Joe chuckling] Oh, my God!
...is the wet room.
[Joe] What do you mean, the wet room?
[Tiffany] Where the tub and the shower will be living.
So, one of my favorite things about this area of the house
is the square skylight is mirroring a square bathtub.
-[Joe] A square bathtub? -[Tiffany] Yes!
This is the size of a New York City apartment.
-[laughing] -That's how big this is.
I'm serious! Look at this, this is crazy.
As soon as I pulled up to the house,
you could tell right away it's not like the homes
where I come from.
Joseph, he knows, obviously, how these homes are built.
Ground up.
So, picking his brain, this is something I love to do.
I love to pick builder's brains.
What are we looking at right here?
[Joe Montoya] We call this a canale.
This is, basically, a scupper that takes all the water off the roof
onto the ground here.
And every canale will have a catch basin
that's gonna be piped into a cistern tank
out on the lowest point of the lot,
and we use that water for the landscape.
Yeah, so, you're using, you're using Mother Nature.
-Basically. -Yeah. Basically.
Unbelievable. Good stuff. Thank you.
We are 20 minutes away from the Santa Fe Farmers' Market.
It is one of the oldest, most successful farmers' markets
in the country.
We had to go and explore it,
and see what else the culture here has to offer.
[bell chiming]
[Joe] The farmers' market is held at a really cool historic railyard
that's been turned into an amazing public space.
-I love these markets, right? -This is so cool.
-I love this biker aesthetic. -[Joe] That's what I found.
I do dress like you live, Joe.
It's so cool around here,
I'm loving the shopping, I'm loving the restaurants,
and the local vibe.
-It's like sand face fingerprints, turquoise. -Yeah. [popping]
[Tiffany] Wow, these are gorgeous.
I love how organic they are with the raw edge.
[Joe] Having a farmers' market so close,
you can come here, you can get all your fresh produce.
You have vegetables, you've got jewelry,
and it's made right here in town.
[Tiffany] I saw a lot of things that I can use for the house.
One thing that I'm loving
is how they are using chilis,
tying them together, making wreaths,
making these little bunches.
So, I think I might go back and pick up a lot of those.

There's lots going on at the house today.
We are doing the interior drywall,
and finishing all of that up.
That's gonna be a huge milestone.
[Tiffany] With all this action at the HGTV Smart Home 2023 ,
Joe and I are staying busy Downtown.
Joe and I are exploring Santa Fe today
so I can get some inspiration for this house.
-[Joe] This is what I'm all about. -[Tiffany] Oh, wow.
[Joe] Buildings, architecture, old school.
This is the oldest church in the United States of America.
Look at this.
What!
Joe!
When you talk about old and architecture...
Yes!
[Joe] ...this is where you go.
-[Tiffany] Oldest. -[Joe] San Miguel.
-[Tiffany] The significance of the architecture... -[Joe] Yeah.
[Tiffany] ...and these vintage old references...
[Joe] There you go, there you go.
...oh, that's the swagger I want for this house.
Everything!
There's so much impactful inspiration
happening right now.
Look at this beam wood.
I love everywhere with a corbel.
- Just look at all of this. -[Joe] Yeah.
Joe, the light fixtures, the sconces on the wall, everything.
[Joe] Right here, this is not an original dobie,
but this is what they make today.
They actually make these now to keep it looking original.
Feel, feel how heavy that is right there.
[Tiffany] Oh, no, I can't, I can't, I can't.
Isn't it wild?
Traditional dobie is sun-dried earth.
Today we use concrete to mimic the look.
[Tiffany] So, this is the, this is one of the many reasons
I was excited, and kept recommending Santa Fe
for the HGTV Smart Home 2023.
The culture, the history.
Mouth drop.
That's it. Now we bring it to reality.
Now you bring it to reality, actually.
Today, Tiffany and I are heading back to the house
to check on the outdoor spaces
because on the inside, that's where construction's happening.
We're choosing function, entertainment,
plus enjoyment of all four seasons right out here.
We have 1,200 feet of decking,
in a combo of sunny and shady spaces.
We're gonna do a little outdoor art there,
and then this is our seating area.
[Joe] You know what is catching my eye out here?
These cedar beams...
-[Tiffany] Oh, yeah. -[Joe] ...that are, like, beyond solid.
-[Tiffany] Yeah. -You know, suddenly, you have one, two, three, I mean,
a dozen of 'em on the ceiling holding this structure up...
-Yes. -...to any element you can possibly get out here.
You know, on top of that, this beautiful area
with that scenery...
Ridiculous, right?
[Joe] I could just sit down here and take a nap just looking at that.
[Tiffany] All right, there's another outdoor pace I wanna show you.
That rooftop deck area,
I envision it as the place where people
experiencing a sunset all around,
360 degrees around this house.
RIght through here is going to be a spiral staircase
that's going to lead to the rooftop deck.
Joe being a home inspector,
he knows how to get up there safely.
I'm not gonna hoist my little self up there and do it,
I need him to do it.
I've never seen it up there,
and I need a video or something
so I know what I'm working with.
You want me to go up there for you?
I need you to go up there. I'll hold this ladder.
That's all I got you for.
-You hold the ladder... -I'll hold the ladder.
-...I'll go up there and make sure everything is good. -Okay.
Cool, cool, cool.
I'll take a little video for you maybe.
-Thank you, thank you. -All right.
Hold that ladder tight, put your foot on the bottom.
-Put my foot... Okay. -Put your foot on the bottom.
Whoo!
[Tiffany] Is it good?
[Joe] Is it good?
[Tiffany] Is it good or is it great?
[Joe] It's unreal!
Okay, don't forget my video in all your splendor up there.
-[Joe] I'm gonna take... -That's what I need to see.
[Joe] I'm gonna take you a video right now.
Look at the view,
360 degrees of just pure beauty.
This is where the winner is going to be able to hang out.
Come on!
Imagine hanging out up here.
Having a cup of coffee. Relaxing.
Mmm!
Tiffany, you good with that ladder?
[Tiffany] 'Kay, I'm holding it.
[Joe] I don't know if I'm coming down.
Please come down.
'Cause I'm not gonna sit here and hold this ladder, I'm getting hungry.
[Joe] The progress at the house is great.
Construction is rocking and rolling,
the staircase is installed,
next process is dropping the steps in,
dropping those treads in place.
So, the outside walls are getting a cement-like coating.
It's the second part of the stucco system
before the color goes on top.
For the interior of the house this year,
I used a really, really natural-feeling palette.
All of the colors I used in the interior of the house
can be found outside in nature in this area of the country.
I want it to feel... Of this entire house,
to be south-west modern.
Santa Fe is famous for artisans and art,
and some of the coolest pieces around town
are abstract with strong lines.
I decided to add a little bit of that flavor to the house.
So, I went with an abstract mural opportunity
in the garage.
It's playful, it's fun,
and it takes up a lot of visual room
to make that space even feel cozy.
This is traditional Santa Fe, but with a Tiffany twist.
The best of Santa Fe could be right out your front door.

We're moving fast
at the HGTV Smart Home 2023 ,
and I am thrilled that we're starting to put down
the wide-plank white oak floors.
[banging]
I love checking in at these houses
to see how much progress has been made.
Isn't it good?
- The stucco color is amazing. -[Joe] Yes.
[Tiffany] It looks really good.
All the houses in this area of the country
are, typically, made to match its surroundings naturally.
Yeah, blend in.
Blend in. I wanted something a little bit different.
I still went with a neutral color,
but I wanted it deeper.
[Joe] The way the stain is on the beams,
the contrast is perfect.
You know, and I love how you put in the vigas.
The... Typically, the vigas on the side of a house, they're structural.
-[Tiffany] Mmm-hmm. -[Joe] And they're round, so,
they went, actually, through the home.
These are not structural,
- but they give that curb appeal, you know? -[Tiffany] Oh, yeah.
I know we gushed about the exterior,
but I gotta see if my door's working.
I'm gonna see what the interior looks like.
[Joe] I hope they work.
-[Tiffany] Ooh! -[Joe] Ready to see this inside.
Here we go.
Yes!
We got the floors going in!
[Joe] There you go, there you go.
It's like design Christmas morning to me.
[chuckles] That's a nice Christmas morning right there.
Ooh, it looks so good!
Look at the contrast between the color of that and the wall.
You're not kidding, look at that.
-Right? -Stunning!
[chuckles] Exactly.
I like the wide planks too.
-[Tiffany] Yes! -I really like the wide planks.
I always go wide because it creates, like,
a more high-end look in the houses that I do.
[Joe] And it's perfect for, like, high-traffic areas.
All right. Good stuff.
-Show me some more. What have we got? -[Tiffany] All right.
-Ooh, I'm excited. -[Joe] Oh, yeah. Me, too.
Hey!
- I love the color! -[Joe] Smart!
[Tiffany] It's like an icy mint.
-[Joe] Yeah. -[Tiffany] Very soothing.
-Let me ask you this question... -Okay.
...what's up with all the tape?
[Tiffany] So, I'm creating a little bit of architectural detail in here using paint.
[Joe] Okay.
It's a really inexpensive way to add, like,
architectural dimension to your rooms.
One more thing, I'm looking at the doors, I'm looking at the trim...
[Tiffany] Mmm-hmm.
...the ceiling, everything is the same exact color.
What's the reasoning behind that?
-When you paint everything the same color... -[Joe] Mmm-hmm.
...it just creates this feeling of luxury,
and how infinite the walls and the ceiling can be.
Oh, my God, I just realized something.
-What's that? -The walls match your eyes.
Mmm!
I just realized that!
That's... That was your inspiration.
[laughs] That's what we'll tell people.
I don't like doing things in a small way,
and as these lines start going on the wall,
I can tell already
that they'll give the exact kind of drama
that I'm looking for in this room.
There's so much going on.
I mean, these guys are busting.
So, that's my cue to steal away for a little taste of the city.
I wanted Joe to sample some of the local food
here in Santa Fe.
I'll let you take the first bite.
[Joe] Yeah, it's like butter.
[Tiffany] You got it?
Mmm!
-That is so good. [exhales] -[Tiffany] It is so good.
The food is great, the drinks are great,
and Tiffany has some things that she'd like to show me.
So, the reason why I brought you here
is because I also wanted to show you
-some of the pictures that I had taken... -[Joe] Okay.
[Tiffany] ...from a photographer
of some, like, architectural moments of Santa Fe.
One of the things that I love doing
when I get to a new area that I'm designing in
is find, like, local flavor, and get an image of it.
It's an amazing accessory for the house.
I found photographs that I'm actually blowing up
to be about seven to eight feet.
-[Joe] That is so cool. -[Tiffany] It is so cool!
So, I figured that I'm gonna choose, like, five of these...
-[Joe] Okay. -[Tiffany] ...to have them blown up vertically.
I even had him visit the San Miguel Chapel
-where we walked. -[Joe] Oh, yeah. How could you not?
[Tiffany] I know, it's so architecturally significant.
It's amazing. These are lovely, right?
-[Joe] I want some of these. -I know. Mission accomplished.
I love Santa Fe.
There is something new everywhere you go.
Everything here is absolutely beautiful.
[Tiffany] Old world Santa Fe meets modern technology

Okay, so, I really want to go dark in this house.
-In the main area space. -Yes.
I have my friend, Lauren Makk, stopping by the house today.
I'm here to check out HGTV Smart Home 2023,
and to see what my girl, Tiffany, has got going on up in there.
This is so sexy.
-Oh, sorry, you can't say that. -[laughing]
It's sexy, but you're not worried about that.
-Okay, okay. -[Tiffany] It's sexy, you were right the first time.
-It's sexy. You're bringing sexy back. Okay, okay. -[laughing]
-[Lauren Makk] I love it, girl. -[Tiffany] Yes.
[Lauren] I really do.
Right here is where the TV is going to be positioned.
-It's gonna be inset like a piece of art. -Love it.
And then I'm gonna wrap this floating detail around it.
-Ooh. -That textures is gonna travel from the ceiling
all the way to the floor.
-So, what I really, really need to find... -Yeah. Uh-huh.
is since we have all of this cover...
-Yes. -...I am looking for pieces...
-Okay. -...that can go on either side of this box.
Oh. What I hear you saying is you wanna go shopping.
[Tiffany laughs]
You got the right girl on the case.
I am the queen of vintage shopping.
Now that I've seen this house,
I know the perfect place to take Tiffany.
[Tiffany] Lauren and I are getting to take a stroll
through the Plaza.
I'm loving it, it is so cultural,
and it gives you this small-town vibe.
The creative energy in Santa Fe is overwhelming.
[Tiffany] Good grief, girl!
Now, this is why I love being a designer.
Just walking in the door gets my juices flowing,
and I'm totally ready to find the perfect pieces
that we need in order to finish this house.
You know, Tiff, one of the reasons I love vintage shopping so much
is just all the new pieces that you can find,
especially in an historical city like this.
Yes. With this house being a brand-new build,
-to insert some of that history in there... -Mmm-hmm.
...especially Santa Fe is key.
Mmm-hmm, I know, and this place is a treasure trove, girl.
I love the character of these old patinaed items.
plus they withstand the test of time.
And you can really find something
for every design style in a vintage shop.
The greatest part about it is, the prices are amazing.
I see a bunch of stuff.
-[exclaims] Lauren. -Girl.
That's everything.
[Lauren] It was love at first sight.
These are the prefect finishing touch for her custom TV box.
They're gonna be chefs kiss.
[Tiffany] They called out to me.
And that's how it should go, that's the serendipity of vintage shopping.
-The scale is really, really good. -Speaking of scale,
how the hell are we gonna get these in our car?
Honey, you have to strap them to the roof.
-We brought the wrong car. -We will figure that out.
-I'm like-- -You're looking for some 3D wall art, aren't you?
I am.
I am looking for some 3D wall art.
So I found some chain link curtains that I really love.
-This is really cool, it's light. -It is, it is.
It would be really unique if you need take out some vertical wall space.
[Tiffany] Space, yeah.
Oh, girl.
-[Tiffany] I love when things are in clusters like that. -[Lauren] Yes. Yeah.
[Tiffany] It just creates such an impact.
[Lauren] It really does, and I love the texture and that silhouette.
[Tiffany] I have to get some of those.
Okay, how many you think you want?
-Five or seven, that number. -Okay.
-I love that. That's gonna be nice. -Yeah.
I always say, when you walk out
with more than two things at a store,
you had a successful shopping trip.
Hold on, don't forget this.
And we did.
You guys have some amazing things in here,
how do you find?
Well, some of it's local, some of it comes to us,
and then we go all over the world
and collect things from everywhere,
-Oh, my God! Good job. -What a great job.
Exactly, what a great job.
[Tiffany] It's a few a days before the holidays,
and we're rushing to get things done
at the HGTV Smart Home 2023.
So much progress has been made in the kitchen.
The cabinets are really beautiful,
they really have a soft finish to them,
which really pulls the paint colors together nicely.
I always love adding some sort of architectural feature to a room,
I'm doing it with a wrap around the television box,
I'm also going to continue that feel
along the side panel of the island,
just to add some continuity between the two rooms.
When this is done and painted,
it's going to look super high-end,
but here is a little secret...
You just order it,
and it's so easy to work with,
definitely homeowners can do it themselves.
[Tiffany] In the guest bathroom,
I'm actually putting stone on the wall
instead of your traditional tile.
All of the stone tile that I'm putting in,
does not go all the way up to the ceiling,
matter of fact, it's gonna be more organic
and feature waves for the room.
In the kitchen,
I'm taking the bold geometric tile
all the way to the ceiling for a luxury look.
Outside, the spiral stairs are done.
With the roof deck ready for furniture,
this week we're moving into high gear to create a dreamy yard
for the lucky winner.
Oh, my God, we got decking!
-Looks good. Looks good. -[exclaims] Yes!
-Look at that. Huh? -Oh, yeah.
-You like the color? -[Joe] Like it? I love this color.
You know what's great about this?
-It's super durable... -Mmm-hmm.
[Joe] ...very long lasting,
and you don't get splinters.
Yes, this product is actually perfect
for anywhere in the country.
What have we got going on in the rest of this backyard?
Okay, in order for me to tell you,
-I have to put you to work. -All right.
So I'm actually gonna have to mark the area.
-All right, cool, cool, good. -Okay.
Okay, so right there, right where you're standing
is where the spa is going to be,
so I need you to mark from that area, coming towards me,
just so I can get an idea of the proportion.
So we got the water feature going there.
Next, in that area over there
is going to be the firepit area.
On the edge of that firepit
is gonna be beautiful landscape
-with all kinds of flagstone coming up in plants. -Okay.
Over here
is gonna be where the entertaining happens.
-This whole area right here? -[Tiffany] Oh, yes.
This rectangle is gonna be all turf.
And then that.
-That beautiful scenery. -[Tiffany] Yes.
Okay, all right, I approve.
[Tiffany] The spa will be heated,
so our lucky winners can enjoy year round.
Inside, they're gonna have an equally awesome soak.
Instead of putting in an elongated tub
in the main bathroom suite,
we used a square tub,
that just simulates the architectural buff in that skylight.
The other side of the wet room gets smart showerheads
that are voice and touch screen controlled.
And the rest of the house is in the home stretch.
Furniture arrives just in one week,
so we're 100 in go mode.
This is a smart home,
so, of course, it needs a smart bed,
so today I'm taking Joe to look at the newest smart bed technology.
All right, so what is so smart about this bed here?
Eight out of ten couples,
one of them is either sleeping too hot or too cold,
this bed is temperature controlled through the night,
it even has a feature to it
where it can warm your feet to fall asleep faster.
It also can reduce your core body temperature
to help you stay asleep.
So you're telling me there's no more
throwing sheets all over the place in this bed?
-Right. -Oh.
So everything about this bed is smart,
which actually matches smart home.
-Oh, yeah. Bam. -Good job.

includes this fully furnished house
on almost two acres,
plus an all new, all electric
EQE Sedan from Mercedes-Benz,
and $100,000 in cash.
Today is moving day.
I spent months figuring out
how to capture Santa Fe in this home,
and now that it's ready for furniture,
my skills get put to the test.
This is actually the last step of designing this house,
is adding all of the things.
Designing for the area can be tricky,
you walk a really tight line
from going too theme-y
and just being classy enough.
Everything is in this little booklet
as well as the floor plan.
So it's a pretty easy guide,
so just reference this.
This is gonna be chaotic,
there's a lot of pieces being delivered,
so we'll just get them unpacked
and put everything into place.
-Sounds good. -Okay.
All right, I think we should get to work.
That rug, I can't tell what it is.
So far so good.
First the area rugs are coming off the trucks,
then we're going to place the beds,
and then we're gonna start placing
some of the other heavy furniture.
I love this sofa.
This is for the bunk room.
Someone is going to win
the HGTV Smart Home 2023...
I do like this.
...and when I'm designing and picking out all these pieces,
I often cycle back to that thought.
So you're, like, designing for everybody,
and that actually unleashes some type of creativity.
The main bedroom is coming together.
And the architectural paint lines
accent the head board just as I planned.
Art will dress up the rest of the wall.
Art is just as important as the furniture in the space.
I mean, you have this big blank empty walls,
and in this house the walls are so tall,
art will do the trick,
especially large scale art.
So this piece, I picked up,
because it works so well with the book cases,
and then this piece, I picked up,
because it worked so well with the paint colors.
Now that I have the two pieces of art in here,
I think I'm gonna go with this one.
I am loving how this piece
ties all the furniture together.
The last job for today
is setting up our whole house security system
to keep all this gorgeous stuff safe.
Oh, this looks really good.
So this is the home security base station.
I love using this because
-it offers total home protection... -Oh, cool.
[Tiffany] ...and the base station is actually cute.
Yeah, it goes with everything.
-It goes with absolutely everything. -That looks great.
We are so much further ahead
than I could've thought on a day one,
we're in a good space.
I'm really, really sure that this is gonna be fantastic when we're done.
What is this?
Oh, it's a wall hanging.
I remember ordering this.
Right now, we're in the process of styling,
it's a lot of trial and error,
looking at something like this,
cocking your head this way,
taking a camera phone picture of it.
We can do green apples in there.
All the stuff I picked out at the vintage shop is arriving today.
I'm loving these vases,
not only do they add more vase space to the room,
but they're also acting as sculpture.
This is a library, this is a dining room.
One room can have two uses.
These rooms are just shaping up to have
that modern Southwest feeling that I'm looking for.
I'm just in love with it all.
Tiffany Brooks, everybody.
Today is like the big reveal day for me,
it's like I get to show a client I've been working with
the final product,
but my client in my head is Joe.
-Tiffany. -Come in, check out this house.
[laughs] Oh, my gosh.
-You're kidding me with this right now. - [Tiffany] I'm done.
[Joe] You, you are done. You over did it.
Walking into this house, my jaw literally just dropped,
I was almost speechless.
The pictures.
[Tiffany] Yeah, remember we had margaritas that week.
[Joe] We had margaritas.
-I remember the picture, I do remember these, though. -Yeah.
-Look at that. -They came out amazing.
And this even makes the room even taller.
Now, I wanna-- What's this?
-I wanna see this room here. -Oh, gosh.
Okay, so all of this fabulousness
opens up into this.
[Joe] Wow.
[Tiffany] Story here is the color.
So this house is covered in the HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams
Earthy Charm Color Collection.
And I put this deep black green
-to be like the, the star... -Yeah.
...but all the other colors work so well with it
because you get this room to room harmony.
I can literally go through the color collection
and pick out two colors,
and know that they'll work well together side-by-side.
What I learned working with Tiffany,
be bold,
go above, go crazy.
Like, for me, I was like "Dark colors, eh."
You know, a lot of people are nervous with that.
Don't be nervous with it,
everything just comes and flows perfect in here.
The way this color and the beams on the ceiling, how they pop now.
The contrast, so the beams are working
because they're working with the flooring.
And normally, this white oak flooring
will look a little bit more beach-y,
but coupled with this color,
-it's just adding this modern element... - [Joe] Yeah.
[Tiffany] ...so it feels totally different.
So this fluting texture I put here on this TV wall--
[Joe] This is nice.
[Tiffany] Yeah, it just adds more architectural detail to this space,
So, uh, so, oh, my God,
my friend Lauren Makk, I had her fly out,
and we found these gorgeous dramatic vases
and then this chain link accessory.
-This is good, this is nice, though. -Isn't that cool?
Look at that.
It's so cool.
And it-- [sighs] I need you in my house.
This whole area opens up into the kitchen, I wanna show you that next.
I see that over there, that's wow.
The hardest part about designing a smart home,
any smart home,
is the forward thinking technology.
I think I'm gonna blow Joe's mind with some hidden high-tech secrets.
Come with me, Joseph.

Okay, so do you remember
-the fluting I told you about over there... -Yeah.
[Tiffany] ...on the TV wall?
-I continued that same texture here in this island. -[Joe] I like it.
-I like it. - [Tiffany] It's massive,
very, very functional.
[Joe] Yeah, you know one thing I really love,
these little pop-up outlets.
They're tamper resistant.
So smart, so safe.
-There is two of 'em in this island. -Yeah.
So I got you covered.
Also, do you remember
-when we went to the farmers market? -Of course.
I went back.
Going around Santa Fe,
you start seeing chili peppers here,
and over here.
-I bought some chilis. -Ooh. Ooh, mama.
- [Tiffany] Apples, oranges. - [Joe] Yeah.
I really, really, really just kind engaged
in all the scent of fruits and vegetables that was there.
So we have an appliance garage
for all of your countertop appliances right here.
Smart, unbelievable.
-Thank you. -I love that.
And to close this, you just...
-Yeah, you just... -Just push it down?
There you go, and it just closes like that.
-Soft closes everything. -Beautiful.
Okay, so, here, this is so cool.
It is a digital hood.
You can pull up recipes, apps,
it even has a camera, so you can film yourself while you're cooking.
On here?
-[Tiffany] Everything is touch screen. -[Joe] Come on.
[Tiffany] So do you remember...
[Joe] No way.
[Tiffany] ...when we went to have enchiladas that day?
[Joe] No way.
This easily is the smartest kitchen I've ever built.
Tiffany and I've been talking about the house, I've been here many times,
but to see the final product, everything come together,
that's a different ball game.
Then we put this massive window in here.
-This is the pass through that connects the indoor kitchen... - [Joe] Mmm-hmm.
[Tiffany] ...to the outdoor kitchen.
The countertops are endless,
and then it leads you
-into this multi-functional mud room... - [Joe] Okay.
[Tiffany] ...pantry,
laundry area, and craft station.
- [Joe] Why not? Why not? Why not? - [Tiffany laughs]
You don't have to be a designer to know that this house is gorgeous.
Back at the front of the house,
the guest wing off the foyer has two awesome bedrooms.
This room is supposed to be literal
with more of a sense of humor in there,
you know, they're riding the bull,
we're at the rodeo here,
I put the cowboy hats up, I have pair of boots,
I don't want this room to be taken too seriously.
[Joe] I love this.
-[Tiffany] All right, do you wanna see more? -[Joe] Yes.
-[Tiffany] All right, come on. -[Joe] Let's go.
So I'm calling this the bunk room.
[Joe] This is cool.
This is kind of a more techy room, I would say.
Once you remove the art,
-there is a projector right here. - [Joe] All right.
[Tiffany] You turn this on, you can watch movies,
-there is a video game system connected up. - [Joe] Love that.
So these two bunks are built directly into the wall,
so again, I was able to take advantage of the high ceilings.
Each of the bunks also have
these little cubbies, these little niches,
that have outlets in them,
so you can charge your devices at each of the bunks.
-It's really cool. -That's awesome, that's awesome.
And you have this nice step,
and you have a railing, a safety railing.
[Tiffany] It is so architectural.
You know, this is my room, right here.
-[laughs] Is this-- -You know, I like this room.
-Is this little Joe's room? -This is little Joey's room.
-You know, little Joey's room. -[Tiffany] That's so cool.
And then even on this wall,
you know, you have this really cool tactile light show happening.
-Ooh. -And you can add to these, too.
You can literally put more and more pieces,
and then have this kind of travel all over the room.
Should've put your name, Tiffany.
I know, I would, but, you know, you gotta use restraint.
I went organic with the line of the tile.
[Joe] The tile work in the guest bathroom,
it's like rolling mountains going all over,
it's unbelievable.
Okay, Joe,
do you remember, this is the main bedroom.
[Joe] I love how this came out.
[Tiffany] The feature in that main bedroom that
I'm in love with, the volume ceilings,
work so well with how much natural light we have coming in there,
plus I get to show off those amazing drapes.
-I remember tape being on the walls. -[Tiffany] Yup.
This is what I wanted to create.
You have shapes on the wall that hug the shelter bed.
Is this that smart bed that we saw?
This is the smart bed, yes.
-So in here, the design is all about geometry. - [Joe] Mmm-hmm.
[Tiffany] I echoed that bold pattern,
you see that again in the floor to ceiling drapes.
[Joe] Yeah.
[Tiffany] And then again on the Southwestern rug.
Geometry, geometry, geometry.
I like that, I didn't do well in geometry in school,
but you did, you did a good job here, though,
you did a real good job here.
Do you wanna see the bathroom?
-Oh, yeah. -All right, come on.
Of course.
[Tiffany] All right.
-Joe... -This is gonna be crazy.
Whoo!
[Tiffany] Isn't it gorgeous?
Oh, my God, look at this place.
[Tiffany] So I have dual floating vanities.
[Joe] Yeah.
The pendants on each side.
The gold hardware and the gold plumbing,
it's acting like jewelry right now.
[Joe] Yeah, it is.
-And these are heated? -Yes.
-Ooh. I love that. -Heated towel racks.
Okay, Joe.
-And have you ever... -No, I have not.
-[Tiffany] . ..seen... -[Joe] I'm gonna cut you off.
-I have not seen anything like this before. -[Tiffany laughs]
[Tiffany] ...a wet room like this?
We have a Japanese style soaking tub in here.
And how it shaped is meant
to alleviate tension and relieve stress.
The tile is so dark 'cause I wanted that
-infinite feel that you'll get in a high-end spa. - [Joe] Yeah.
[Tiffany] You know, these skylights open to let in that fresh air.
[Joe] Sure.
These are moisture sensing,
so when it starts raining, the skylight will sense it,
-and if they're open, they will close. -[Joe] Smart.
My absolute favorite feature in this house
is that wet room.
When you have a spa in your house,
to me that, like, separates you tremendously
in the luxury living category.
We got a touch and voice controlled shower system.
The dual showerheads,
our rain head here,
the four body sprays,
the hand held.
It's just, you have a tree in the bathroom.
-I know I do, I know. -[Joe] You have tree in the bathroom.
-[Tiffany] It's ridiculous. - [Joe] That's how big this bathroom is.
[Tiffany] It's ridiculous.
I hate to call this a closet.
- [Joe] Because it's-- - [Tiffany] It's a little bit more than that.
[Joe] It's a another small New York City apartment.
-I have this perfect way to begin your day. -Mmm-hmm.
[Tiffany] You can see what the weather is,
you can see what your itinerary is for the day.
-The clothing restyler. - [Joe] Mmm-hmm.
[Tiffany] So it, like, refreshens your clothes that aren't really soiled.
You got it, I like that one right there.
I also noticed you have the natural light coming in
from the sun tunnels up top.
Yeah, this is one hardworking space.
Outdoor living in Santa Fe
is definitely a staple.
They have the weather to do in the Southwest,
and the views to back it up.
So we have the outdoor kitchen
-with a pizza maker - [Joe] Ooh, look at that.
[Tiffany] The outdoor kitchen also has waterproof artwork,
plenty of cabinet and counterspace,
and tons of seating.
The decking.
- [Joe] Composite... - [Tiffany] Mmm-hmm
[Joe] ...solid, easy to clean,
and I also love the lighting.
Yeah, those little puck light...
-I love them. -...it just adds that touch of luxury.
It gives you a touch, yeah, and it also give it, like,
"Hey, you're about to step off the deck on to the ground,
-don't twist your ankle." -Right.
And then the canal, we, we spoke about that,
the water is coming off,
it's landing right inside here,
and then going away from the house.
[Tiffany] The yard has all of the elements,
earth, wind, fire, and water.
So we got this awesome plunge spa here,
- right outside. -[Tiffany] Yeah.
- [Joe] Obviously, it looks like it's heated. - [Tiffany] Yup.
Is there a cover that goes on this for safety?
Oh, yeah, definitely have a cover,
but I wanted everything pretty when I showed you.
All right, just making sure, just making sure.
You know, safety Joe over here.
And then just as safe is our firepit.
Far enough away from the house,
-so you don't got to worry about that. -Yup.
And there is a fire extinguisher.
The best part about this house here is the outdoor living.
So anywhere you go on the outside of the house,
you can hangout and relax and look at the mountains.
Can you imagine that the winner
of HGTV Smart Home 2023
gets to end their days with this view.
[Joe] Talk about being lucky.
I have never been in a home so beautiful like this one, seriously.
Oh, my God, that's a big compliment. Are you lying for TV?
No, I'm not lying for anything, I dead serious.
[Tiffany] This house is, it has to be,
-out of all them that I have done... - [Joe] Mmm-hmm.
...all of the HGTV Smart Homes throughout the years...
this is the house that I would live in.
I'd live here, too.
[Tiffany] There is one lucky winner out there.
HGTV Smart Home 2023,
this one is the best.
