BBC Two’s “The Great House Revival” returns with another batch of ambitious restoration projects. This week, the focus shifts to a historic terraced house tackled by not one, but two architects. The series, presented by Hugh Wallace, shines a light on unique and often difficult restoration challenges.
Rob and Alfonso, the architectural duo in question, have set their sights on transforming their own home. They’re not just aiming for a renovation, but a complete reinvention. Their aim is to create a home that is both stylish and functional, a place that can seamlessly transition from living space to workspace. The challenge, as anyone who’s attempted a renovation knows, lies in balancing historical preservation with modern design sensibilities. Can they pull it off? Will the history of the building work with their ideas or against them?
