How many Grand Designs babies are there? One a week?

One year is now over 2 because he hasn't spent a bean.

He produces a pollen that's carried by the wind.

Interior not so bad, but the outside is a fking mess, no cohesion and bits thrown in here and there.

The combination of the arch and the corrugated roof spoil the look for me.

Wonderful, characterful building. Purposeful and confident design. And nice people to boot...

I like it, very different certainly not to everyone's taste thought the gluelam curve was inspired and gave fantastic internal space. Triangles and curves are never going to sit well together but hey it's not a big white box - thank god!

This. Outside doesn't work for me at all but the interior, especially the mix between old and new is fantastic.

That view though...

No exterior landscaping or even the blooming balcony had been completed.
