When Olympic legend Shaun White teamed up with the Property Brothers, Drew and Jonathan Scott, the result was nothing short of breathtaking. In his episode of Celebrity IOU, appropriately titled “Shaun White Gifts a Gold Medal Reno to His Childhood Best Friend Chase”, Shaun trades the half-pipe for a power drill, and with a little help from NEEZO Studios’ 3D animations, it’s a winner on all fronts.

A Friendship Forged in Gold

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 The cramped, outdated kitchen and living room were transformed into a spacious, modern haven, perfect for a family that now includes Chase’s son Phoenix and baby daughter Lily.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.

From Cluttered to Family-Friendly

The design transformation was all about better flow and functionality: knocking down a wall to unify kitchen and living area, installing a banquette for busy mornings, lighting the space with purposeful fixtures, and creating an inviting media zone where the family could relax together. The Scott brothers crafted a layout that embraces both comfort and livability.

NEEZO’s Creative Role

NEEZO Studios was proud to contribute to this heartfelt renovation through our architectural visualization work. Our renderings and animations helped translate design concepts into vivid, tangible visuals, making it easier for viewers at home to see the transformation before it was revealed in real life.

These visuals are more than just supporting material; they are storytelling tools that highlight design intent, showcase details, and enhance the emotional impact of the reveal.

Why 3D Visualization Matters in Storytelling

Celebrity IOU thrives on emotional connections. A strong visualization bridges the gap between imagination and reality. In Shaun’s episode, these visuals gave context to the design, amplifying the joy of the final reveal and helping audiences connect with the space on a deeper level.
