Jacqueline and Jamie

Architects Lizzie Fraher and Julian McIntosh compete using virtual reality to remodel a London home. Will the finished build fulfil the dreams of the mother and son who share it?

Jacqueline and her husband Alex were about to remodel their two-bed London terrace, but tragically, Alex fell ill and died. Now, three years since his death, Jacqueline has resolved to finish what they started, supported by her 22-year-old son Jamie.

Jacqueline and Jamie share the family home, but both long for some privacy. Each would like to have friends over without disturbing the other. However, the problem is that the terrace has just one reception room on the ground floor along with a small and chilly kitchen. Another major problem is finding a new location for the downstairs bathroom. Jacqueline has a budget of £40,000, but can that sum possibly solve these problems?

Jacqueline and Jamie are handing over control to competing architects Lizzie Fraher and Julian McIntosh. Lizzie has plenty of experience in unlocking the possibilities in residential projects while Julian loves the creative challenge inherent in modest budgets.
