Castle Impossible

Twenty Twenty for HGTV

‘Castle Impossible’ follows the journey of a young Californian couple, Daphne and Ian, as they embark on the immense task of renovating a 500 year old French Chateau they’ve inherited. This new 8-part series is full of trials and tribulations, giving viewers an insight into what it takes to bring a dilapidated yet magnificent building into the 21st century without eradicating the character and history written deep into its walls.

Our mission was to create room locators and transformation graphics that set out the intended plan for each room. We produced graphics in the style of an artists water colour painting. The style married the notion of the couples ‘minds eye’ with the history of the building.

The series premiered in the US on Tuesday 29th April at 9pm on HGTV and in the UK on Monday 26th May at 9pm on HGTV UK. You can also stream Castle Impossible anytime on Max, Apple TV+ and Discovery+.
