As the episode unfolds, Courteney Cox works closely with Drew and Jonathan Scott to plan a surprise first-floor renovation for her friend Marisa. She carefully considers Marisa’s needs and lifestyle, guiding the transformation of the cramped kitchen and living room into an open, functional, and beautiful space. From selecting finishes to highlighting thoughtful design features, Courteney’s personal touch drives the emotional heart of the renovation, while viewers watch the space evolve through NEEZO Studios’ 3D animations.

The Ritz-Carlton brand is synonymous with world-class hospitality and timeless elegance, and The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Hammock Dunes is no exception. With its prime oceanfront location, exclusive residences, and resort-style amenities, this project sets a new standard for luxury living in Palm Coast.

Our scale model was crafted to capture every detail of this exceptional development, offering potential buyers, brokers, and investors a tangible preview of what makes this project extraordinary. From the sweeping coastal views to the intricately designed residences, the model reflects both the sophistication of the Ritz-Carlton brand and the bold vision of Related Group and BH Group.

Importantly, this tabletop model was designed to be portable, making it a powerful sales tool. The development team can take it on the road to broker meetings, industry events, and private showings, giving potential buyers the chance to experience the project in person and envision life at Hammock Dunes.

Florida’s luxury real estate market is more competitive than ever, with new high-rise residences and waterfront communities rising across Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Tampa, and beyond. For developers, standing out requires more than just blueprints and renderings, it takes an immersive, tangible experience.

That’s where NEEZO Studios comes in. Our custom architectural scale models allow buyers to explore every detail of a project before the first stone is laid. From elegant amenity spaces to striking exteriors, our models give potential homeowners a sense of place and scale that digital tools alone can’t replicate.

For The Lauderdale, our team captured the sophistication and modern elegance of the building, highlighting its unique architecture and lifestyle-driven design. The result? A centerpiece sales tool that draws attention, sparks conversation, and builds excitement for this landmark Fort Lauderdale development.

Rather than renovating for a friend or colleague, Rachel chose to honor her best friend’s parents, Ron and Robin, who have been steadfast pillars of support throughout her life and career. The couple had endured multiple health challenges in recent years, and Rachel’s renovation was a tribute to their strength and kindness. Collaborating with the Property Brothers, she orchestrated a kitchen transformation filled with warmth and appreciation for the family that had become hers.

“Miami isn’t just another market for us, it’s one of the most dynamic real estate hubs in the world.” said Marvin Maalouf, Founder, President and CEO of NEEZO Studios, in a recent feature in the South Florida Business Journal. “This expansion allows NEEZO Studios to collaborate even more closely with Florida’s leading developers, bringing their visions to life while creating opportunities and contributing to one of the fastest-growing real estate communities in the United States. We’re excited to begin this next chapter and to make a lasting impact in this great State.”

While NEEZO has worked on U.S.-based projects for years, the Miami office marks another strategic physical presence that will allow the studio to continue serving clients across the Southeast and beyond.

Shaun White isn’t just a multiple gold medalist, he’s also the kind of friend who gives back in big ways. On the episode (aired July 30, 2025), Shaun surprised his lifelong friend, Chase, and his growing family with a heartwarming renovation. The cramped, outdated kitchen and living room were transformed into a spacious, modern haven, perfect for a family that now includes Chase’s son Phoenix and baby daughter Lily. According to the official Celebrity IOU recap, Shaun wanted to do more than upgrade a house, he wanted to change their world.

Reaching 200,000 followers is more than just a milestone, it’s proof that scale models can captivate and inspire audiences far beyond traditional real estate or design circles. By sharing videos of our models in action, we’ve transformed a centuries-old craft into a dynamic, shareable experience that resonates globally.

As a result, we’ve become the go-to scale model studio people recognize online, because we were the first in our space to consistently post content that showed both the artistry and skill behind what we do.

Our very first viral video happened in 2022, when we posted a video to the sound of “So you’re an artist”. This sound had just been gaining traction at the time and we knew that our scale models truly are a form of art and that our team consists of artists. So, we posted a video to that sound and 12.5 million views later, it is still one of the top performing videos to that sound on the platform.

What made it work wasn’t years of testing, it was timing, creativity, and the instinct to act on an untapped opportunity. We saw the potential, jumped in early, and have continued to put storytelling at the center.

The episode opened on a playful note: Tyra, Drew, and Jonathan struck hilarious high-fashion poses for mock magazine covers—Elle, Vogue, GQ, and even HGTV Magazine. Tyra also gave the brothers a quick lesson in her iconic “smize” (smiling with the eyes) which set the tone for an episode filled with both laughter and emotion.
