Ellen’s Design Challenge Season 3 Release Date
Ellen DeGeneres will test eight furniture designers coming to Los Angeles, take part in a variety of challenges, and design and build stunning furniture pieces. Participants will need to make a new build for each episode, using workshops, chief carpenters, and all the tools they need. Along with the performance by Ellen, the panel of experts eliminates them one by one.
There is no information related to the further fate of Ellen’s Design Challenge in Episode 3, but we will share our knowledge as HGTV announces more information. There was a controversial moment in the season 1 finale. Katie Stout and Tim McClellan were the last contestants in the show, and the judges chose McClellan. Later, it became clear that the furniture designed by the winners was almost a complete copy of the existing European design.
The judges had to disqualify McClellan and declare the winner to Stout. McClellan later stated in the media that the controversies and similarities found were convincing. Still, he fully accepted Katie as the winner. She received a $100,000 prize and the opportunity to be featured in HGTV Magazine.
