All about HGTV’s upcoming show, Luxe for Less
Michel Smith Boyd is all set to appear on the HGTV show to share some of his insider tips on how to decorate a house while sticking to a budget. In each episode of the show, Michel and his team will get together with homeowners who want to redo their homes but without spending a fortune.
In a press release, Michel stated that he has designed houses for celebrities for years. His previous clients have all been people with a lot of money and a big budget. However, he recognizes that a majority of people don’t.
He added:
"I believe that everyone deserves luxury in spite of budget, so my team and I have discovered great ways to deliver the gasp-worthy spaces families’ crave."
In a promo for Luxe for Less, Michel stated that people want luxury but they don’t want to pay the luxury price tag. His small-town roots have taught him one simple truth, which is that everyone deserves luxury. The promo showcased homeowners being shocked at the end product that left them almost in happy tears.
Luxe for Less will feature the host, Michel Smith Boyd, and his team of geniuses, Kai Williamson, the designer who has her own firm and offers a different point of view, Anthony Elle, the maker, is a couture fashion designer with the “ability to make something out of nothing, and Laura Green, the licensed general contractor who can ensure that projects are completed in a six-week timeline.
The team will wrack up their brains to ensure that homeowners get the luxury they deserve and still have some money in their bank accounts.
Meet the host
Michel Smith Boyd established his company SMITHBOYD Interiors in 2006, and since then the one-man organization has evolved into an eight-person team that specializes in luxury residential and commercial projects. However, designing wasn’t his first career as he worked in multiple fields before finding himself in it.
In a conversation with HGTV, he said:
"I was working in fashion, and I mean loosely as in retail, and taking acting classes, and being rejected for modeling gigs, but then on ebay I found myself in the Decoration and Design Building."
Tune in on December 1, at 9 pm ET on HGTV and stream episodes of Luxe for Less as they air on Discovery+.
