A phone call from a production company in March 2018, kick started a somewhat crazy yet fun journey that I am very excited to share with you, starting next Wednesday, 14th August at 8pm on BBC 2.
Interior Design Masters – a new Interiors based competition produced DSP and broadcast by BBC 2 and Netflix Worldwide, it will be hosted by Fearne Cotton and will see myself and 9 other designers battle it out over 8 weeks to win a commercial contract with a top London Hotel.
From Left to Right: Trish Coggans, Cassie Nicholas, Terian Tilston, Jim Biddulph, Verity Coleman, Jerome Gardener, Frank Newbold, Nicki Bamford-Bowes, Kyle Broughton-Frew, Ju DePaula.
I have to be honest, it all felt like a dream until the big press reveal last week. It was at times tense with challenges I don’t usually come across in my job such as; not undertaking site surveys or meeting clients to take their briefs prior to embarking on the installation phase of a project and, of course, being a TV show, the squeezed budgets and timelines! But it was immense fun and a fantastic experience to work with the other designers who I didn’t know before the show and have access to talents such as Matthew Williamson and Michelle Ogundehin.
Please make sure you watch the first episode on Wednesday 14th August, 8pm on BBC 2 with the world wide series going live on 18th October on Netflix (in no less than 38 countries)!
I will, of course, be keeping you all up to date on TWITTER , INSTAGRAM, PINTEREST, FACEBOOK and of course on here with lots of behind the scenes info and chat.
