Lynsey Elliott
Lynsey is an architect from Northumberland who has a passion for detail and practicality. According to her website, she's worked on large scale commercial projects as well as small domestic extensions – which works perfectly for the format of the show. "There is a public perception that the industry is inaccessible to smaller scale development, this programme shows that is not the case."
