Fiona and Andrew
Using virtual reality, two top architects compete to remodel a barn conversion in Solihull. Will the owners go for Julian鈥檚 contemporary design or Laura鈥檚 incredible vistas?
One year ago, Fiona and Andy, and their young sons Ted and Josh, moved into their dream home, a 300-year-old barn in Solihull. But it鈥檚 not quite the fairy tale they imagined. They originally fell for the barn's quirky and characterful features, but this hotchpotch of a conversion needs a radical overhaul to make it work for them as a family.
Coming to their rescue are top architects Laura Jane Clark and Julian McIntosh. After investigating the problems, Julian wants to bring the barn up to date while celebrating its original features. Laura has been won over by the long hallway and central courtyard. She thinks linking these different parts is key to unlocking its potential.
Will they have gone for Julian鈥檚 giant window or Laura鈥檚 long vistas?
