The first episode we was not sure... but then we got adicted. Seen both season. Very inovative. Great designers. Good host. Hope for more seasons.

I have seen many home renovation shows. But this one tops it all. Very innovative and amazing designs. It's great what both the architects design with such small spaces. Actual renovations are even better.

Robert projects are Amazing but people are not prepaired for changes. Shame . They said they want a total transformation but when is presented yo them they choose the projects with less changes.

Love this series! What a great way to be able to see the finished renovation before it's even started. In most instances the finished product is better than the VR experience shown. Incredible concept for a renovation show.

Such a great way to help people with visualising how to build/make their home work for them. Not just generic ideas like other shows but really looking at how they live and fundamentally what they really need to maximise their home. Couldn't recommend this show enough. Seeing 2 very different approaches from 2 amazing architects/designers is fantastic as you don't usually get to see more than one option with most home make over shows. Highly highly recommended.

Excellent but no need to do a full intro of the architects on every episode, also not necessary to gush about the 3D tech on every episode. We get it. Could show more of the build and definitely show more of the finished house. More show, less tell.

I so appreciate this show because of how much I learned. As an American who lived in England and who traveled extensively throughout Great Britain (all 4 countries), I have a good sense of the limitations of living in many of the types of property available, especially the older ones. Having two radically different interpretations from architects who genuinely tried to solve clients' needs was so interesting and educational. This show gave me so much inspiration, since as a professional organizer, I am always looking for new ideas to solve my clients organizational needs within their space limitations. I so appreciate the time the show takes to help the viewer translate some of the specific solutions the architects had for each shows clients. Well done all around.

Love everything about it. The host is amazing and the designs are so imaginative.

It is great to see how homes can be renovated and hear some of the things that professional architects can make your home better with a budget. Awesome show!

This is a decent interior design program for people who like that kind of thing. However, the program is way too long at 1 hour. Really it could be half as long and still get the point across. There is too much unnecessary chatting, I found myself fast forwarding through most of the program. All I need to see is the before, the designs and after its competed. It seems the VR and CGI in season 2 has lost a lot of its budget compared to season 1 which has a lot more detail and more realistic. The presenter at times can be annoying and biased towards one of the designers more than the other. It would be nice to see how moving staircases affects the first floor layout. Also, seeing a valuation of the house before and after would be interesting.

Extremely bias and annoying host. Shocking how the producers continue to work with her. Laura makes the same design you'll see any refurbished townhouse in London. Quite boring, repetitive and pretty basic. And the host falls in love with her designs every-time. I guess she is as dull as Laura's repetition one style kitchen centered designs ( you can also tell from her earring choices). I am binging this so it really annoyed me. This is the first time ever I am writing a review on IMDB. Robert wins. Yes his bench choice gets repetitive too and sometimes it is unconventional but it is much more than that. He is creative in an artistic way. Inspiring. However ppl choose Laura over and over. How disappointing.

The hostess was always prejudice toward Laura's design and negative toward Robert's. She needed to be neutral made me always want him to win the contract.

The show itself isn't too bad, they pontificate a lot and drone on and on about the designs, the show could probably be 10-15 minutes shorter without all the filler. I dont know why Angela can't support her weight when visiting the final project, always leaning on people's walls or sitting on their new worktop or child's bed. Richard rarely wins because he designs spaces that no normal person would want.

Watched with family tonight. A very bizarre and disturbing programme.

Showing the projects with VR goggles is a great way of showcasing the designs, makes me think if I would want to do this if I refurbished my place...

Great architects, but the program needs to start picking better projects. The guest profiles (middle aged, boring people) end up playing to Laura's strengths, therefore she always wins. And the host can stop taking digs at Robert, he's a great competitor and one of the shows greatest strengths. Not watching season 3, hoping Robert can come back for seasons 4 or 5.

Only on episode 1 and they're showing all these angles and they're all marked as 45 degrees when they're obvious 120, 40 and 90... And they've removed all walls from the drawing including structural support walls. The couple cries happily cause they can see a nice house and I'm laughing as I imagine how the top floor is slowly going to cave in on the bottom one.

Also all those angles are horrible and I mean horrible for lying floors and finding suitable furniture.

Wtf. They are scamming people.

Considering how much they broke the property I bet it cost them more than 50k, money they will never see back when selling the house. Unless they advertise it was on a TV show.
