5280 Peek Inside a Denver Home Designed by Studio McGee One of superstar designer Shea McGee's early projects was right here in Denver, and we’ve got the room-by-room tour.Julie Dugdale • May 4, 2021 über-famous—thanks in part to a debut book, Make Life Beautiful, hit Netflix show Dream Home Makeover, and e-commerce platform McGee & Co.—principal Shea McGee tackled the remodel of a charming Denver home. It wasn’t the biggest home on the leafy street in Hilltop, nor the flashiest. But as soon as Ashley Swapp and her husband, Tom, saw the 1932 Tudor, they were smitten. The 2,400-square-foot house oozed enough historic character to overshadow its age-related shortcomings (dark interior and awkward, misused space), and they knew it was just a matter of finding the right designer to help make it their own. “We always wanted to live in an older neighborhood in an older home with charm,” Swapp says.
