Academy Award and Golden Globe-winning actress Mira Sorvino is back on our screens, but this time, it’s to join Drew and Jonathan on Celebrity IOU! She wants to surprise Astrid—who’s like a sister to her—with a new main floor, including an improved kitchen, dining room, and living room. After the pipes burst in their kitchen, the main floor completely flooded. Astrid and her husband Alfred were devastated. The couple loves their home, and they were beside themselves when they realized they didn’t have the resources to fix the plumbing issue right away. They’ve been living with their adult children since then.

Mira wants to help get them back in their home and solve these problems so they’re safe. “Astrid is the kindest person you’re ever going to meet,” says Mira. For the past 16 years, Astrid has been very close to Mira and her family. She helped look after Mira’s children when they were babies, and Mira says Astrid became an older sister to her. “She’s helped me out through some really hard times. My father died recently, and she was there for me…To me, she’s the family I have in California,” Mira says.

Likewise, Mira has been Astrid’s rock throughout some tough times in her life. That’s why Mira wants to turn the home into a haven for Astrid and Alfred. “They’ve gone through a lot, and it’s time for something good to happen for Astrid,” Mira says.

Before & Afters

Chic and Bright Two-Tone Cabinets

The slight variation in color between the cabinets makes all the difference, creating a subtle contrast that gives the room interest. Sleek stainless steel appliances and a pot filler are just a couple of the upgrades they added that give this kitchen a modern touch.

Calming Mix of Stone and Wood

By mixing warm-toned woods with stone slabs throughout, the kitchen’s style feels more grounded and calm. Astrid doesn’t like bold colors or high-contrast patterns, so it was important to Mira and the Bros that they create a space that feels uniquely hers, even with a more neutral color palette.

Comfortable, Elegant Dining Area

The long wood dining table feels perfectly placed under a statement pendant light. Plush, comfortable seating makes the dining table an inviting area to gather and share meals, stories, and laughs together as a family. They also added a soft area rug and cozy pillows so it’s even more warm and welcoming.
