Interior Design Masters series 5: Meet this year's contestants
Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr is back for a new series. Once again joined by interiors guru Michelle Ogundehin, series five follows 10 novice designers looking for their big break in the world of commercial interior design. Working individually and in teams, they'll be given free rein to redesign a space in line with their clients brief.
So what can we expect? 'Brilliant designers, exciting locations and eye-popping interior design,' says host Alan Carr. 'The show is such a springboard – that’s what I love about it. Banjo Beale has his own show, Micaela Sharp, Peter Irvine and Siobhan Murphy do presenting. Molly Coath and Fran Lee have worked with the amazing Matthew Williamson, and I saw a massive billboard advertising Paul Moneypenny’s new wallpaper range – felt like such a proud dad. This show can change your life.'
Projects will include turning former nun's cells into B&Bs, remodelling holiday lodges at Blenheim Palace and transforming Wembley dressing rooms. And, Michelle will welcome guest judges from the world of interior design including Abigail Ahern, Kelly Hoppen, Sophie Robinson and Mary Portas, who will help her decide which designers will be sent home.
