Grand Designs: Deconstructed

In this final episode of Grand Designs: Deconstructed, Greg James and Kevin McCloud revisit one of the most emotional Grand Designs builds yet, the Sevenoaks barn conversion. Back in 2019, Greg and Georgie took on the challenge of transforming a dilapidated diary barn into a peaceful haven, despite facing serious health struggles and a global pandemic along the way. Now, five years later, Kevin returns to see how their home and their lives have evolved. Together, Greg and Kevin unpack what it means for a building to truly heal you, how determination can defy the odds, and what really happens when a dream project meets real life.

But of course, it wasn’t all smooth sailing… Tune in as Greg and Kevin discuss modular building, sustainable timber, unexpected challenges (bat stats anyone?!) and catch up with Pete and Aey live from their cutting-edge new home.
