An enormous warehouse filled with world renowned danish classics...IKEA

Why does no one seem to choose SIPS panels ? They reduce costs by decreasing construction time. They offer better structural integrity, better insulation and greater fire resistance.

[@jillyjay94]

I like the outcome! I also appreciate that the background music in this video doesn't drown the voices.

[@yeshprab]

Wow! A house not only I admire, but wish I could live in. Its open space, soothing mild colors, clean lines, free of clutter, all indicate planning with extraordinary care, and a house that truly says, "Welcome" to visitors and inhabitants alike. A very nice video indeed. Yesh Prabhu, Bushkill, Pennsylvania

[@007vsMagua]

I would believe that with all of Jason's hard labor, and with the creativity and sacrifice of both Jason and Riikka, this wonderful home cost more like 500,000 Pounds.

[@hutoxipatel3610]

V beautiful home n equally loving couple. The gentleman is a v determined n hard working guy. Hats off to achieve a luxurious home in this budget. God bless u both with health happiness n loooooooooong life

[@joannahampton3808]

The living room furnishings are extremely impractical for comfort or entertaining

[@vkhemjinda]

At least he's get it done 👍👏

[@kathyusa-iowa5137]

Stunning architecture! Absolutely love the design knowledge shared in this particular project. Thank you!!

[@anthonyrondolino8148]

Should have nestled the back of the structure into the hill and raised up the living area at least a meter. This increases the lawn stretching out to the view, improves capturing the distant vista and reduces sight lines down on the overlooked roofs. The entry is awful in appearance and function. Entire house should have been a tailored simple glass box like the 70s modernist they visited.

[@Pamela-jr3ht]

Obviously FLW is not someone they researched. What a waste. And the plywood sofa, unbelievable.

[@keirfarnum6811]

@@Pamela-jr3ht Yeah, that bench wasn’t so great. But I suspect it was just knocked together so they could put it on the show. Most likely they’ll replace it when they start living in it.

[@MyNameIsNotEmail.ItsEmail]

That is truly impressive for the money

[@garyhopper819]

Can you imagine carrying your shopping 🛍 up all those stairs to your house or if you forget something not very practical to begin with the way that property is accessed .

[@honestlyme4247]

I was thinking the same thing and we are not getting any younger.

[@Mario7p]

since the body works in a "use it or lose it" basis, it may not be such a bad thing, in the long run

[@NancyEly]

The whole point here, as I understood it, is that the natural surroundings are the focal point; the dwelling should be deemphasized and opened up to the beauty of the outdoors.

[@keirfarnum6811]

Well done. Great craftsmanship and design!

[@postgraduatedipolma5598]

INSPIRING.

[@issievdhorst]

I like the tiles and floors, materials used though.

[@stephenspilker9334]

what i am curious about is what's that tunnel looking thing behind the house? lol. i must say i'd hate to carry anything up those stairs and where do you park your car?

[@teresaconiglio3214]

Well if they are happy that's all that matters. Definitely not for me but after all...I'm not them. No sense in putting the house down. 👍to the happy couple!

[@totw7790]

Beautiful open space kitchen. Love it.❤

[@11antun]

Welldone!

[@shilokominarek1884]

Beautiful.. I know this show was many years ago but how are some of these builds down so cheap? This seems like it would cost 2-3x more in the states .

[@courtneyhall7140]

as the old saying goes,to each their own .

[@informationcollectionpost3257]

The entry is bland but the rest of the house looks and feels great. Too much glass for the colder climate of upper mid western USA but it should work fine in the UK. Besides glass is an expensive building material in North America. You need the windows to take in the fabulous views. Large windows starting about 40 inches from the floor and extendinding to the ceiling would make a good alternative construction in N.A. Large glass doors at entry/exit doors could further extend views and site lines to give the perception of living in a larger building plus provide ample natural light. The stark modern interior of which some people like could be toned down to a more traditional under such construction changes. I like the idea of opaque or dark bronzed glass ( perhaps tin coated glass) to create more privacy in the house. Its a great trick used in Japanese architecture. Other than the entry, I like the house. Great job on a great looking budget house.

[@andreaandrea6716]

(8:00) Piers tries to talk the guy out of an air conditioning unit and into a DESIGN that won't cost. YEARS ago, I sat in a Tesla. I said "But you can't see out of the back window. WHO would design such a stupid car?" The sales lady said; "But, look!" and pointed to a SCREEN showing the back view. So that when THAT delicate piece of engineering breaks down, it will cost you 'la peau des fesses' to get it repaired. Instead of a decent design. Sometimes geniuses are idiots as well.

[@builderspluscustomhomesand2146]

The last video I watched took them a year for a bigger sq ft home and this one has been a year and it's like 2.3 times smaller... What in the hell goes on out there with the building department?!

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

I'm sorry, but putting the cooktop right next to the living room just doesn't make any sense. They could have put a counter where people could eat and drink at. That would have been more fun.

[@peterkompter2417]

how can you say, 'never know whats around the corner' every year the the same weather comes

[@silverbackag9790]

All of these sliding doors with no screens...must not be any misquitos in the UK.

[@Mario7p]

well... actually... I live in northern, Spain and here mosquito season is about april to september, so half the year there's almost no mosquitoes or flies, because it's too cold for them to function, same climate as UK

[@ceciliacurrie9088]

Beautiful space!

[@lianacollet8915]

A wasted use of the beautiful views and that entrance is a disaster.

[@leahfromcrimia8424]

Aren't there any bugs in Great Britain? All those large open windows without screens are crazy. I don't want flying insects, snakes and other critters coming in and enjoying the "indoor - outdoor" look.

[@TheDrKKool]

The finished building is architecturally a big let down. Entrance is the biggest disappointment, especially given the great site. Wasted views despite the large glass expanses. Naah...

[@Mario7p]

I didn't know Austin Powers does house renovations now... the more you know..

[@sterling123.]

Could any of you please help me to understand what "white gloss" is? Piers has mention it as finish for kitchen and bathrooms walls. Would love to know what this stuff is and there to find it in germany.

[@geroenverbruggen8662]

You mean the sheets? Since it was a fishmarket i guess its some kind of plastic (acrylic something) best chanse to find it is to go to a butcher or fisher site where they use it to make "clean rooms" and just ask i studied for cooling and heating and looks like the stuff we put in cold storage rooms

[@user39h2j8il]

We call it Perspex.

[@paulsheridan1]

DACOL in England may assist on antimicrobial single skin PVC panels. Whenever they can export to Germany, is another matter. "Best of British" for your build.

[@sirfrydryk360]

I really nice this house, but it's not something I would live in. But it is really nice.

[@richardmckrell4899]

No way to drive up to the house? Are they serious?

[@lizcademy4809]

Maybe they don't have a car. Not everyone does.

[@richardmckrell4899]

@@lizcademy4809The mode of transport was not the point of my comment.

[@CaliforniaFarmGirl]

What do the British have against air conditioners?

[@user39h2j8il]

Nothing. Just not necessary if you build wisely factoring in the sun and wind. Very expensive therefore money that could be spent on the build instead.

[@ramose83]

Where can one get those white glossy plastic cladding? Would it be possible to have a home page adress? or an adress? Thank you

[@paulsheridan1]

DACOL offer this excellent antimicrobial single skin PVC panel. Good luck with your own projects.

[@builderspluscustomhomesand2146]

The only thing I don't like are those urinal seats at the bar end of the table. Never liked those since seeing them years ago lol. Literally looks like you can take a dump while enjoying shrimp scampi at the same time.

[@titajuwita9073]

for me that glass home is not too interesting like back to 70's style , but the garden looks like million dollar

[@midgie4410]

Entrance looks ridiculously mismatched. Pretty stone work and a bright white wall. Too much white on the inside. No character. But that's them

[@celineleeuwe1206]

It looks very empty to me. The furniture looks cold and uncomfortable. There's no warmth, no home feeling for me.

[@issievdhorst]

seen. I have not seen ONE house on this show I like. Too modern for my taste. NO MORE curtains????

[@deeyoung5620]

just no.

[@Asphodel27one]

Jason seems too hard-headed. I see him twiddling his thumbs while pretending to listen about the windows.

[@kylejnicholson]

Is the theme of this show Trying to get people to change their plans after they have already finalized their plans and started building...? It's so aggressive. Their original plan is terrible tho...

[@peterkompter2417]

to much boring white

[@AngelaBecker1966]

It looks plastic to me.

[@haydaryilmaz4191]

The dependent joke chronologically hum because sun behaviourally heal but a ajar oven. spurious, well-groomed season

[@meredithchapman2009]

I can’t stand this style of building. It looks Ike a bunker. Horrible.

[@BobbyJett1]

These two flaky architects always come into a project after construction has started, and bring no value added nor original design concepts.

[@NachaBeez]

I thought the points about the glass wall were extremely useful, actually.

[@lizh1988]

@@NachaBeez And the kitchen is much better open than the way it was in the orig. plan.

[@CaliforniaFarmGirl]

It would be more helpful if they came into the process a lot earlier. Like before permitting for the design.

[@lydiaesten]

Boring and hum drum entrance. I don't care for most of the architect's ideas.
