Interior design is fast becoming an important part of Nigerian home décor as more people now embrace the astonishing effects of design in living and business.

Among young creatives who are benefactors of MultiChoice’s investment in local productions since its 27 years of business in Nigeria is Olajumoke Ogunnaike of ‘Lefteye’s Signatures’, the outfit behind the art direction of the iconic BBNaija House.

She speaks on what tickles her creativity and shares her experience working on Africa’s biggest television production. Excerpt:

Describe your experience working on BBNaija last season?

Without mincing words, every work comes with its own challenge. The experiences and challenges faced during other projects we’ve handled made us better prepared and made our work experience much easier talking about handling the pressure that came with the BBNAIJA – Pepper them project. To add to this, there was a positive energy around me from the Red Pepper team that gave me the yes, I can vibe.

What was the most tasking/challenging design you worked on in the house this season?

he most tasking  and challenging  design I worked  on in the house is still the garden area; the time it took to complete the beautiful mural, being at mother nature’s mercy and praying several  times that the rain seizes also at this period coordinating about 20 of my team members  on a particular wall with me not having control over the the weather and with a slim time line counting down got to me… but I’m glad we pulled through.

What should viewers expect in terms of art design of the House?

Just as our viewers were pleasantly surprised on the season before, they should equally get ready to be awed with the ambiance and warmth the Big Brother Naija house brings this season. This time we decided to keep it simple and soft and I’m sure it will be a pleasing feed-back.

When given a project, what is your creative and work process?

Put in its simplest form, I would say it’s a succession of thoughts and actions leading to original final production; We get the brief, plan, delegates and get the job done but the most interesting part is birthing fresh ideas during a work process. It just comes effortlessly, and we go with the flow.

What impact has the COVID-19 pandemic had on your business?

Just as it has its downsides, it also had its positive effect. When we sensed that the drop in demand for our services was solely because clients were scared of the pandemic and high on safety  from the team we put on our projects, we had to up our standards and got appropriate PPE kits to keep both the team and our  clients safe in their haven.

The Continental reports that the fifth season of Big Brother Naija started on Sunday, 19 July, 2020.
