Paying attention in the renovation media space this summer is The Westport Project, a web series debuting on June 26, 2025, showcasing lifestyle influencer Eva Amurri and The O’Dell Group bringing to life a net-zero, smart beach-front home in Westport, Connecticut. The project promises a transparent look at demolition, design, tech integration, and wellness-focused construction conforming to high luxury standards while maintaining environmental awareness.
In the first episode, viewers see the existing house razed, the site excavated, and foundational stages laid with precision setting the tone for a build that’s both modern and responsible. Eva Amurri, serving as creative director, says the team aims not just for visual beauty, but for homes that do more: less energy use, smart climate control, thoughtful material choices, and seamless integration of tech without overwhelming aesthetics.
The series exemplifies the tensions and opportunities in sustainable luxury. Balancing cost, sourcing eco-materials, integrating smart systems, and staying true to style demands both creativity and grit. For many homeowners, Amurri’s build provides inspiration and permission to expect more from their own renovations: that green can be beautiful, luxury can be thoughtful, and comfort need not mean excess.
Conclusion:
The Westport Project isn’t just renovation TV it’s a roadmap. Eva Amurri’s build signals that the future of home design lies not in opposing style and sustainability, but in fusing them. As climate awareness and smart tech become norms, this series raises the bar for how beautiful, functional, and responsible homes can and should be.
