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.
Now in its 24h year, Grand Designs is one of Channel 4’s biggest returnable factual series and has grown into a global phenomenon, selling in over 100 territories. 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.

Since these uploads are eighteen years old or so, it would be nicer to see something about how they all turned out in the following years.
And how many are still living there. For me it was one of the worst one yet.
I hadn't seen these. So I'm super happy to find them. But, YES!!! Wouldn't it be amazing if they went back to see all the houses they've filmed!?! GREAT idea!
Apparently they ran it as a bed-and-breakfast to help cover costs. Then they tried to sell it, but couldn’t, so they are living there, but planning to sell. From the internet: “Francis thinks the house is worth about £2 million today, twice their original investment. But they’ve waited 16 years to “earn” it.”
@@vladeckk21 THANK YOU SO MUCH for the update!!! It is so interesting and fun to hear how time makes a difference. I appreciate your research and sharing with us!
The stupidity of not doing things correctly and 'hoping for the best' makes me ill, as if it were MY house! I think ALL OF US, out here, are watching and thinking "NOooooooooo!!!!"
Thank you for uploading 👏👏
Much appreciated 🙏
Seconded !
How not to build a house.
The wife was a bit unreasonable. I bet that house doubled in price with all the revisions and mistakes. Totally their fault.
Grand Designs doesn't know what Art Deco design is.
"Nothing prepares you for building a house" - this is the 5th series of 'Grand Designs', what were you expecting?
😂😂😂
Well, degrees in structural engineering, architecture, project management and work experience in construction companies certainly will prepare you for building a house. 🤓
Kevin was brutal in this episode!
I don't understand how they underestimated the number of loads required to remove the site: is a uniform slope, you have the final height etc
I do not know the laws in the UK for construction near the sea, but in Brazil it is 30 mts from the high tide maximum reach, and in fact this is a military stipulation, although it is often ignored in Brazil, as you might expect. I wonder if the UK also have home security laws that affect building consent.
They would do it all again for that view. So nice.
I wouldn't have blocked that wonderful view of the sea with those gastly metal/bush mushroom looking things
My Kingdom for a Project Manager
A Miami style house? That looks like a nightmare.
I feel so sorry for the problems. Maybe not build such a massive home?
They looked in there late 40ts so probably 60 odd now i wonder how they managing the up keep those stairs and cleaning,
I'm surprised they weren't able to sell all that extra dirt
EARTH. It's sacred. (Dirt is what cities produce).
@@andreaandrea6716 right, the reason being: It's dirt.
@@Paul_C It was toxic?
@@Paul_C it has value it has many uses,i just think their mind was caught up with other stuff.
Yes, you have to pay for it. When we built our last house a neighbor, who was building a house, offered the dirt they dug out of their yard. We jumped at the offer and they dumped it in our backyard which was 16 ft below the front of yard. Our builder said it would have cost a lot if we had had to buy it.
The people who gave us the dirt didn't have to pay to haul it away so it was a win/win deal.
After all of the problems they had because of not hiring an architect or a project manager the house turned out great.
living in a dream-world, like so many builders... like kangaroos: try to make high jumps with an empty pouch..

She could live anywhere as long as it's on the most expensive land on the water.
One thing about this show it is how people are out of there league ! 😢
"miami" house in England LOLOLOL. Along with tacky Jacuzzi. Also so windy its...... It takes all kinds. But house doesn't even fit the landscape
Not the sure about this big echoing house or the owners 🙄
The inside of their skull represents an echo chamber?
Kevin has much to much to say. It is not him paying for the house, and running these people down is right down nasty. The sarcastic comments are totally uncalled for
They must play the game they signed up for
It is a nice building, but I am struggling to think of it as a home. A little bit too sterile or clinical for my liking and it lacks being welcoming. It lacks a soul if that makes sense to anyone. So whilst this isn't my home and it isn't me that will be living in it, my thoughts are irrelevant really but I would not build a house like it either. I wonder how that house is faring 18 years on as my own home is far closer to the sea than them and removing sand from window frames is an endless battle! I do envy their 'high-tech' glass as the sea air does make them a cloudy white every time there is a strong wind, which by the sea, means many times a week.
A story how the customer is almost always wrong. And I’m going to give an advice to the guy. Get divorced as soon as possible. She’s a total Karen.
I love the house! Kevin is crude with the elephant remark. WTF?
