Imagine stepping inside your home, but suddenly it is transformed beyond your wildest dreams, without ever opening a can of paint or lifting a single brick. Angela Scanlon presents a property makeover series like no other. In a first for British television, cutting-edge virtual reality and visual effects enable people to see what the future of their home could look like, before building it in reality.
Never have plans come to life like this: people can instantly explore a stunning transformation of their bedroom, walk around an incredible double-height kitchen or see how adding a gigantic picture window will turn a dingy lounge into a showstopping sitting room. In each episode, a family is presented with two radically different designs by two extraordinary architects. Which ambitious renovation will they choose to become their perfect home?
In the world of home renovation shows, "Where We Call Home" stands out as a refreshing take on reimagining unique spaces. This captivating series invites viewers into the lives of homeowners and innovative designers who share their inspiring journeys of transforming commercial properties and unconventional spaces into modern havens. From barns to firehouses, each episode delivers a blend of creativity, ingenuity, and heartfelt stories that resonate with audiences looking for design inspiration or simply a good story.
The first season introduces us to diverse families with compelling narratives tied to their new homes. In Episode 1, we meet a family of four who successfully converted an old barn in Ohio into their dream residence. The struggle and triumphs they face during this transformation not only showcase their architectural vision but also highlight the emotional connections people have with their living spaces. Similarly, Episode 2 takes us to California where another family recounts how they painstakingly built their schoolhouse home by hand, exemplifying dedication and craftsmanship that is both rare and admirable.
Each episode serves as a testament to the power of home – not just as a physical structure but as a sanctuary reflecting personal history and aspirations. For instance, Episode 3 features a preservationist who highlights her stunning firehouse home in Portland, OR. Her passion for preserving history while embracing modern aesthetics provides viewers with insights into how homes can embody both character and style. Meanwhile, Episode 4 showcases an inventive Hawaiian family whose home is uniquely built around a salvaged school bus, proving that creativity knows no bounds when it comes to finding your perfect space.
