Docklands

Gregg owns his riverside flat near Island Gardens on the Isle of Dogs in Docklands. Nathan, a friend from his university days, moved in last year and lives there with him. The flat was bought in 2002 and enjoys great river views from the external balcony – they are able to catch the river taxi directly outside their front door ! The problem is that the new build flat is a little dull in décor, and their living / dining room appears a little bit narrow. They would like to give this area more character and free up the space for better entertaining and relaxing.
With the help of Tara, her team and some trips to some inspirational places the space is transformed on their limited budget.


2. Streatham Kitchen

Sarah and Andrew’s kitchen is in need of a makeover and quick -it is so old it is almost an antique! ..more

Streatham Kitchen

Sarah and Andrew’s kitchen is in need of a makeover and quick -it is so old it is almost an antique! They have a whopping £30k to throw into the Kitchen of their dreams – a space that will be the envy of all their friends. When it comes to design, Sarah loves to buck the trend, the minute it turns up on telly or in a magazine, as far as she’s concerned ‘it’s off the menu’. She loves anything Art Deco, bold, edgy design and she loves anything green. With a budget to die for Tara really will have her work cut out, but can she design something that will satisfy Sarah’s quirky taste…?


3. Kilburn

Daniel, the archetypal bachelor, has £2,500 to spend on this good-sized living space. Much of the storage is inherited from the previous owner, and the snail shaped CD rack definitely needs to go! ..more

4. Streatham Bathroom

Jane and Martin have a stunning floor to ceiling window that they want to maximise on in this South London Bathroom. This is their own private bathroom and a haven from their two young children, Max and Eve. ..more

5. Thames Ditton

Having downsized following the separation from her husband three years ago Sara and Alice’s current living room is about the same size as their old hallway. It is a multifunctional room that serves as a place to eat, work, relax entertain and play. ..more

Thames Ditton

Having downsized following the separation from her husband three years ago Sara and Alice’s current living room is about the same size as their old hallway. It is a multifunctional room that serves as a place to eat, work, relax entertain and play. Sara now has £3,000 to get everything she needs out of this room to give her and Alice the best living space possible. This house is about a whole new lifestyle for Sarah and Alice…by her own admission Sara has had a long lasting love affair with cream and pine but now feels it is time to move on. This is a fresh start for both of them and Sara wants her new found confidence and style reflected in the room. With the help of Tara, her team and some trips to some inspirational places the space is transformed on their limited budget.

6. East Finchley
August 30 at 5:00pm

Roy and Angela’s pine kitchen dates back to the early nineties and totally dominates this L shaped room. Angela is the first to admit she is well behind the times when it comes to design and Roy happily admits ‘style…..no I don’t have any style at all…’ ..more

7. White Chapel

Laura and Jar Mir are cool, funky, vibrant and fun, they have a great attitude to life but sometimes fall short in the style stakes…they know what they like, but are not always sure how to go about achieving it. ..more

White Chapel

Laura and Jar Mir are cool, funky, vibrant and fun, they have a great attitude to life but sometimes fall short in the style stakes…they know what they like, but are not always sure how to go about achieving it. They have embarked on an ambitious project to add square footage and hopefully some value to this East London flat. They are currently in the process of making the mezzanine loft level structurally sound and have set aside £5,000 for the decoration.

Laura and Jar Mir want a lot out of this room – ideally they would like a chill out zone, a sleeping area and a wet room, and enough extra storage to house Jar-Mir’s huge comic collection and budding DJ Laura’s extensive record set.

With the help of Tara, her team and some trips to some inspirational places the space is transformed on their limited budget.
