Salford-based Beyond Productions North is set to produce a new property series featuring interior designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, after securing a commission from Channel 4.
The series, called Outrageous Homes with Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, will follow the designer as he meets homeowners across the UK with ‘wild, wonderful and truly outrageous’ decor.
He will also meet some of the architects, designers and decorators who helped bring the bold and creative visions to life in 4×60 episodes.
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen said: “Huzzah! At last, a property show that turns its back on Delusions of Blandeur and instead celebrates homes that take OTT to another level of FABULOUS. In fact, we’ll be filming in spaces of such OUTRAGEOUSNESS I’ll be the most understated thing on screen which is, let’s face it, an extraordinary achievement…”
Deborah Dunnett, commissioning editor for Channel 4, added: “This is an altogether different property series. So as the epitome of extravagance and eccentricity, Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen is the perfect person to host it. Who wants uniformity anyway?”
Damon Pattison, Creative Director at Beyond Productions, said: “We can’t wait to get started on this exciting new series, we’re all guilty of following design trends – so by taking a sneak peek into this fabulous world of homeowners who decorate to their heart’s desire, we hope to inspire the nation to do the same!”
