Welcome to series 3 of House Tours Open Door. We've been busy filming gorgeous homes, filled with cool and clever ideas from their creative owners.

We plan to beam you into eight jaw-dropping homes, to hear from the owners and to get under the skin of exactly what makes a place special. Inspiration from the comfort of your living room? Sounds like a double win.

EPISODE 1 - AT HOME WITH PAUL CRAIG

Interiors photographer Paul Craig has invited us in to his six bedroom Victorian villa in south London. Full of dramatic design ideas, it's a show stopping home which offers plenty of decor inspiration.

As an interiors photographer, Paul is always soaking up ideas for his own home when taking pictures of other peoples'.

Paul wanted to create a grand entrance that made an impression as soon as people arrived at his home. The dark floors were chosen because of the sense of drama they bring to this large, open space.

Despite the large size of the home, the kitchen was relatively small when Paul moved in. Extending it out was his first big job - he likes to cook and this was always going to be an important space. The patinated look of the modern kitchen cabinets enhances the luxe feel.

The grey living room feels light and airy, a mix of classically shaped furniture and quirky objets like the statue of the dog and the mounted skull. To see the rest of the home, watch the video above, and don't forget to sign up for the live webinars, hosted by our editor Pip McCormac and featuring the homeowners taking your questions.
