1x1 - The DiMartinos

September 27, 2011

In West Cheshunt, Teresa and Vince DiMartino have big ideas. They’ve already got a tiki bar in their Hertfordshire back garden, but they want something more. Their garage has become a junk store and they want to breathe some life into it. Can Kelly to come up with some ideas for transforming their suburban garage into a stylish, multifunctional living and socialising space? Just to keep her on her toes, the DiMartinos have a couple of specific requests. They want a mafia-inspired bar for entertaining purposes, a bubble chair for their daughter Amy, a utility room and an interactive whiteboard for their son Michael. To add to Kelly’s headaches, the budget is rather limited and Vince, a builder, wants to do all the work himself. Will she be able to tick all of the DiMartinos’ boxes? And is bringing a sense of style to a suburban garage beyond even Kelly’s capabilities?

October 11, 2011

Londoner Kirat Nandra has soaked her minute flat in wild orange colours, simply because she liked the name of the paints. Kirat is now questioning her colourful taste but wouldn’t dream of selling her beloved home. She’s going to renovate not relocate, so has decided to seek Kelly’s help to convert her garish living space into a glamorous and enchanting kitchen living area.

Their only daughter, Saffron, is embarrassed about her childish bedroom, and wants a grown up-space where she can relax and get away from her four brothers.
