Lovely couple. The house is beautiful. Well done.

[@cathypickard4615]

Love how this couple persevered to achieve their goals in building this house! Great job! Love Cathy from Alabama

[@eyrunsigrunardottir6977]

What a great couple! I didn´t think in the beginning that they would be so open to changing the original plan but they just went on this amazing journey and it was a pleasure to take it with them. Well done and congratulations on the house.

[@SmallWonda]

Really enjoyed this program, 1st one I've seen - obviously seen Kieran in lots of things in the past - but really interesting to see the designers guiding the home owners through the creative process. Good idea - would have liked to have seen the upstairs. Hope they're 'appy in their home - loved his Cornish accent - proper Cornish, that.

[@rosslocincam9916]

Love the lack of blether, less repetitious talking, lets the images and evolution of the design as the couple are exposed to alternatives. The contractor route would have produced the boring suburban mass housing style building. The music is amazing and the progress thru the seasons and stages- the awakening of Ruth and Tony is outstanding. This is such a cool documentary that is organic and so far beyond the norm.

[@pattipostcard8489]

The people who have everything out on open shelving must have a housekeeper who comes in to dust it all once a week. Anyone who has to do their own dusting wouldn't last long with this type of arrangement.

[@lcrain7840]

as a fellow farmer- I can relate to the home builders NOT wanting their home to look like a barn. The romanticized barn look is for people who don't work in them professionally. And that trip to the seaside was horrific- they would NEVER take the other "great hall" folks to a place like that, why take the farmers there? This episode really shows the prejudice working people face in The UK. Glad they got the modern home they wanted.

[@hollyhold562]

Light-filled, warm, beautiful, uncomplex design that pays sympathetic homage to the land + surroundings is actually the goal.

[@SuzanneU]

A house with beauty derived from space and function. It was delightful watching its evolution from somebody else's show-off box to Ruth and Tony's home. I love the cladding, and will be making light boxes for my own apartment. I like the gentle wash of light.

[@hollyhold562]

How about larch cladding? Tieran + Piers really believe in people. Hats off. Im so impressed w these UK people, they're marvelous. Those taps are to die for.

[@rustyiron]

Given the cost of recycled roof slates, bricks and stone they tossed away a small fortune with the way they razed the building. Perhaps enough to have a building designed by an architect and built by a professional contractor.

[@rosslocincam9916]

Yes but the cost and time to dismantle and store the stone and tiles is a factor, this was a pared back project where they wanted only one winter in the shed. If there were teams who rocked up and dismantled tidied and repurposed the materials at no cost.... then yes- but I suspect there are no such teams. The 'wham, bam, thank you mam' of the professional builder would not have resulted in such a well developed and pleasing design. The cost and quality end result speaks for itself.

[@KittyM-]

Absolutely gorgeous. What an eye for beauty.

[@Susan-qg9tm]

Why the heck does an Architect say "wriggly tin". It just sounds ridiculous. It's called corrugated iron or corrugated steel.

[@aaronwilson8768]

I've been missing you all the restoration Karen I hope you have a Happy New Year

[@sandybarry6370]

Very nice job Ruth and Tony!

[@annelisearnold3776]

Hi. The off-camera commentary in your videos is either very soft or disappears entirely. I think this means we loose a lot of the content.

[@johnasumaa8644]

The budget for voice-over narration must have been cut severely. This documentary seems to be exposition by implication. How about telling us what's happening? The whole thing is disjointed and discontinuous.

[@sherunswithscissors]

Buy the finished product on Amazon.

[@maneuschwander6394]

I am glad they did not build that three section - Monster! This is very nice.

[@paulafernandez3259]

I miss the voice over.

[@TheHeraldOfChange]

Timestamp 36:52 Can you imagine polishing all that brassware and copper pipework? 🥴

[@carolinawren3594]

the Lutyens benches don't hurt. the cladding is a lesson desperately needed in the US. unfortunately Piers is a true anomaly in the architectural profession. The clients in this video are beyond reproach.

[@cleot151]

Doesn't look like a rescue to me. They built a new house.

[@susancollado5290]

Stunningly beautiful

[@dandetmer6336]

Like that siding better than gray

[@jacobtracy7847]

Wriggly tin. Oh the British. We call it corrugated iron.

[@xw6968]

Yes why as a farmer would you need to be living in a dusty old building?!.🤷‍♂️

[@clairehawkes1112]

“I’m not a builder I’m not an architect I’m someone that wants a nice house…. “Well listen to the award winning architect then 😆🙄

[@grauergerald9971]

Another video with commentary audio channel missing :-(

[@elizabethsavage9108]

Very good dramatic music but can we please please get on with the build and the reason for the program in the first place .????

[@05cacaiplay]

I love the outside but the inside kinda so so.

[@dandetmer6336]

Kitchen looks good

[@joyceduesel7966]

Do you two ever like the designs the homeowners like? Your so critical.

[@natalierooney6912]

New uploads see to have less and less commentary and more loud music!

[@veni7893]

29:22 min. What is the name of the material that lasts 70 years?

[@jenniferhofmann4144]

I generally enjoy the shows that you post on this channel however when you edit and remove the voice overs the show looses a great deal of its enjoyment. What are the reasons behind some decisions? Why the change? And many other questions are left half answered and make the show confusing and disjointed.

[@sherunswithscissors]

Buy finished product on amazon.

[@informationcollectionpost3257]

I thought that a wise man counts the cost before he builds. Not a bad house! I don't like bulbs hanging from wiring. In the USA; this is how early wiring was achieved. It looks cheap and too utilitarium, not chick in my opinion. The lights in the wall are great and yes old chandeliers can come inexpensively out of old houses; therefore, why not use them. Mix the old with the new tactfully in my opinion. Then opinions are like asses; everyone has one. My wife has picked up a few old cut glass chandeliers at auctions and yard sales and they look great and didn't cost much even after you factor in the cost and time of rewiring them. ( which you will have to do, that is why they sell cheap) Birch ply looks great and the polished concrete too. Then again this area of the Midwest was settled as early as 1812 and several of the frontier major battlefield of the war of 1812 were fought in the area. Lots of good, old stuff around for repurposing and restoring.

[@jackie6343]

Too much background music.such a shame

[@satymaraj1275]

👍💗

[@debby8428]

Nope can't watch it. Definitely can tell something is missing.

[@GeordieBoy1955]

Finishing touches are absolutely abysmal. At 54:27 is just one example.

[@ManMartin]

Oh shit, is Piers again, and narrator missing.

[@vincentbarrett8088]

Total disregard for safety

[@gypsy3446]

The God damn music really and truly forces you to stop watching this program, which is a shame 😪 😔 😕 because it's a great program.

[@boaspendaishongwa5316]

🇳🇦👍

[@robertcarless7445]

A hideous house, just build a traditional farmhouse and design your own interior to your taste.

[@ncprealty3844]

Too much music.

[@basilfoxworth7089]

It seems like they forgot to add the voice-over track again.

[@clovelly1946]

It's not a very nice area,so as rising not very secure.

[@user-vm9mm1rm3w]

unwatchable - music drowning out much of the discussion......better to let someone else upload!

[@ivyrees991]

Terrible recording!

[@oleeoleeoo2610]

Homely in North America means ugly. I'm guessing it means comfy for you.

[@leahwalker9868]

OleeoleeOO actually, no. I live in North America and I don’t immediately think homely means ugly. In reference to a place or surroundings, it means comfortable, simple...not ugly. Jeesh!

[@coolcpa3321]

I'm from California. Homely means ugly (usually describing a person). Homey means comfortable; cozy. Homie means someone from your 'hood.

[@LadyReddK]

Another video posted without commentary. Unwatchable. What's the issue???

[@sherunswithscissors]

You are getting it for free - full production on Amazon.

[@TheToadPad]

Hey DIY Daily -- why do you keep uploading videos missing the narration/voice-overs? So weird and annoying.

[@lauraortstadt2287]

watch something else then!

[@vincentbarrett8088]

Comparing building a house to an ikea flat pack just shows they don’t understand what they have undertaken

[@Armlesscrayon]

I'm sorry but my British cousins have no taste. lol...

[@milliebanks7209]

Without the voiceover this reminds me of a cheap porno that I watched years ago. My taste have changed.

[@heatherjocobsen9562]

It's all very annoying trying to watch this show.

[@ricardosanfernando7378]

12:00 It is plain and functional, not beautiful. We public are bored of black houses and black burnt wood cladding. I gave up watching a show that designs in grand because it turned ionto a "boring modern black house description"

[@janeingram7331]

This is really an ugly house.

[@14eilonwy]

I find the original design is much more innovative, much more in tune with the landscape, had greater flow and organic feeling than what they ended up with. The homeowner says she absolutely does not want something that looks like "an old agricultural building", read a barn, and what does the architect do but go look at house that looks like a barn with a few windows to get idea. This series pales in comparison to Restoration Man and Build a New Life in the Country. This pair of hosts have really boring pedestrian taste, and are always pushing the homeowners to stick to conventions.
