The Great Interior Design Challenge is a British television annual interior design competiton first broadcast on BBC Two since 20 January 2014.
Each series aims to find “Britain's best amateur interior designers”. All programmes in the first three series have been presented by Tom Dyckhoff with the design tasks judged by Daniel Hopwood and Sophie Robinson.
Each episode introduces a new location with distinctive architecture and focuses on a few participants at a time. Contestants have a main challenge - usually to make-over a room in the home of their allocated client - and an additional small task - such as the upscaling of an old item.
