At the intersection of home protection, innovation and entertainment, "Designed To Last" brings together architects, engineers, and inventors to tackle one of today's most urgent challenges: safeguarding homes against unpredictable and extreme real-world conditions.
Each of the four episodes focuses on a specific environmental threat - wind, water, snow/ice, and fire - highlighting vulnerabilities faced by homeowners across the country and exploring practical, forward-thinking ways for proactive structural protection and to prevent costly damage.
Hosted by Maria Menounos, the series follows three teams of architects, engineers, and inventors as they compete in 10-hour build challenges, modifying tiny homes to withstand specific environmental hazards.
Their work is guided and evaluated by award-winning contractor Eric Eremita and renowned designer Wendell Holland, who judge each design on resilience, craftsmanship, practicality, and creativity under real-world testing conditions. The winning team earns a $100,000 grant to further develop their innovation, helping turn ideas into tangible solutions that can make a lasting impact.
