with or without polish builders? Grand Designs 2015

[Konserve]

no pregnant woman (yet).
but the first one ticks the huge square box box.

The designer reminded my of this guy.

Oooh, Moshammer pipbin I have seen his grave, it's beyond tacky.

I actually love this house and would love to live there. I can't imagine my kids in there though. I thought it was a bit sad how they referred to it as dads house when they are supposed to live their 3 days a week.

novice architect - tick
excentric builder - tick

but the design looks nice so far.

'Only' £300,000 allowed by the trustees....on land he already owns, presumably. Hmm. I'm sure a lot of people would be delighted with 'only' that much to build a house.....

I've got little sympathy with a man whose 'problems' are that he has inherited a fuck ton of money and shoved it up his nose, spends his life pissing about in boats and then gets given land to build a house on.

400k could nearly buy you a 3bed place in london.

He's got a flat in London too!

And a caravan,that sleeps six.

I like it. especially the wood of the roof and the hearth tiles.

Love it but very close to the pylons.

Pipbin, when do you suggest he was asking for sympathy?

Where???? Assuming you mean by that a 3 bed place that isn't a hovel?

I don't think he was by Kevin talk about his problems in his youth.

*but Kevin - not by Kevin

I would have liked a crow's nest too. Loved the tiles.
There was so much disdain showing through for people who live all their lives in houses and are so petit bourgois as to value storage space. I started out quite liking him and then got more and more annoyed about that.

I liked the house though if I lived there I'd definitely need a lot more storage space. But I could quite relate to that idea of sitting on the loo gazing at the view.

again.. astounded as to how they got planning permission for that site.

there was a building on the site before.

another modern glass box.
and big.

Tonight's looks like another twattish project.

Yeeesh, it's fucking huge! It's like an entire housing estate.

What's with the life and death references?

That pool must take hours to fill up.

will the money run out?

The architect was on Grand Designs himself in 2010. I think this programme has finally disappeared up its own arse. It's their dime, but the money being splashed around is a bit distasteful. It's a house for 4 people ffs
