First look inside the new futuristic Big Brother house

Big Brother returns to Channel 5 on Thursday and ahead of the launch, DYRT have a sneek peek inside the house.

With a more open feel and look to it, with plenty of modern curves, bright green and purple colours the new BB house looks more like a futuristic spacecraft than a comfy home.

Gone are the lavish soft furnishings from Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year, which have been replaced with state-of-the-art homewear.

This year it has been announced that Big Brother is going high-tech.

Although housemates will leave their phones, iPads and Twitter accounts behind, they will discover that technology is at the heart of this year’s house.

Their hands will also be scanned on an identity touch pad to allow them access to the Diary Room.

The outside area of the BB house is now all about clean lines, groovy pot plants and green space, with plenty of bright purple seating, as well as the usual swimming pool and sports area.

The new layout also allows for housemates to not only watch from upstairs what is going on below in the garden but because it is open upstairs as well they can also be viewed from the garden.

The bedroom can only be accessed via the garden, where as usual, housemates will need to share the modern communal space.

If housemates need an area to escape to, they’ll discover a private futuristic pod set high above the garden.

The living room features a large green couch with plants surrounding the area, again bringing the outdoor feel inside.

An interactive LED wall will feature the housemates’ faces and each week after nominations colours will change to illustrate who is facing the public vote.
