  • Grand Designs Series 5 Episode 3 With Kevin McCloud.
    BAFTA winning Grand Designs is widely recognised as the pre-eminent series on modern architecture and design in Britain. It was originally conceived as a documentary series presented by designer and writer Kevin McCloud that takes us into the heart of life’s great unfolding human stories, where ordinary families risk all to experiment with architecture, technology, and their own lifestyle.

Apart from the TV series, the Grand Designs brand has also expanded to include books, a monthly magazine, architectural awards and a biannual exhibition, Grand Designs Live.

    This was my cousin that built this house, I love going to visit them in this house. It’s such a special place, cousin’s wife actually won the lottery, they are now multi millionaires but still live in this house and said no where could be better. Really proud of them

    This house design the making it’s simplicity and also the time taken to build it considering all the above this is the best of all the house’s featured in your programs Kevin.
    You should certainly share company’s details for benefit your viewers.
    All the praises to the family and specially to the lady of the house. She is the strength behind John’s dedication.

    Such lovely people, and such a shame they couldn't afford to rent somewhere, despite both of them working, until both his parents died. But what a lovely legacy. Beautiful house and amazing design. So well planned on all sides. Congratulations to the family and to the finnish company

    After watching many, many Grand Designs house builds, I say this place needs more glass, concrete and steel. :)

    🎉 In the time between this bill and now a days long building they are just improve the economic livability of such a house by putting also insulation in and framing inside or outside depending what you want to Installaties?? better

  • @pistonburner6448

    Funny hearing all that praise of how 'fast' it is erected, when a prefab concrete slab house structure that size would've been erected in one day by three men (plus half a day of seam work for two men, then later on half a day of removal of molds etc. for two men). It would've required a crane for the day though.
    I don't mean to knock timber structures, just pointing out some benchmarks of other alternatives.

    • @drrydog
      @drrydog 9 месяцев назад +1

      in the states, concrete work is so expensive that most people fall back on timber to save money. I just finished about 14 yards of cement. patios, upright form walls, and steps + huge driveway. Did all the work myself, with the cement truck driver just sitting in his truck all day. Reason to not hire, the bids were 48k for everything but the footing forms. which were about 18k I think. did it all myself in 4 days. with 2k worth of cement. and bought one new float.

  • @pistonburner6448

    Quite a new tactic: making a huge percentage of the house into a hallway. But to each their own I guess...

  • @pistonburner6448
    @pistonburner6448 Год назад +8

    8:40 "The Finns manage their millions of acres of woodland sustainably" Well...depends on what you mean by sustainable. In some ways yes, but in some ways no, just look at that forest where he is treading as he says that line: It's not a 'natural' forest, it's an industrial tree field. Everything is artificially made, all man-planted and grown only for commercial use. All uniform species, no old trees for natural forest biodiversity. Just the absolute maximum amount of that certain tree species for profit. And unbelievably this is what most of Finland's massive forest landscape looks like: artificial commercial man-planted totally "unnatural" industrial tree farming.
