Homeowners have always been drawn to DIY as a way to save costs on their renovations. Aspirations for our homes are ever increasing, but not everyone can afford a full design and management service from a range of consultants to achieve the look.
Professionals are passing on their tips and tricks to show how they achieve the results they do. This supports people to be confident in their own projects, and democratises good design. This new move is being powered by technology that allows people to view “behind the scenes” of their process, in order to understand common opportunities and pitfalls!
From designing your renovation, to how to plan project manage your build, right through to creating an interior aesthetic, meet the companies who are teaching you how to do-it-yourself.
