Changing Rooms - Episode 1 - Colours Used

Laurence's 'Forever Peacocky' living room

Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen took on the challenge of brightening up Claire’s lifeless living room, with the approval of best friend Joe.

If you were a fan of the original series, you know Laurence doesn’t shy away from bright, bold designs. And the theme he gave this room revamp was ‘Forever Peacocky’, so you can already imagine the colours.

Russell & Jordan’s ‘Shantay Swansea’ bedroom

Jordan and Russell from 2LG helped mother-daughter duo Lisa and Kirstie, who wanted to give a tired, shabby chic bedroom a new lease of life.

Ceiling - Potters Pink (Heritage)
Horseshoe canopy - DH Blossom (Heritage)
Blue walls - DH Oxford Blue (Heritage)
