My Bungalow Bliss
Once the ultimate affordable housing solution, Ireland’s iconic bungalows have been part of the country’s landscape since the 1970s. But while these modest homes helped generations of families realise their dreams of homeownership, many are now desperately in need of a modern makeover.
In My Bungalow Bliss, presenter Hugh Wallace follows four first-time bungalow homeowners as they team up with four innovative architectural practices to transform their dark, damp and dated properties into beautiful contemporary homes.
With imaginative design, clever use of space and a fresh approach to modern living, these talented architects reveal the hidden potential of the humble bungalow. The result? Inspiring transformations that prove even the most ordinary homes can become something truly extraordinary.
