It must be so hard to do a commentary without being rude! I m actually sorry for him having to find so many positive things to say about such a ridiculous design and materials 😂
It's about time that self building became accessible in the UK - having moved to Denmark, this is the norm. My husband and I self built 16 years ago, and still love our home. There are very few developments where one builder builds all the houses - they're also usually small (we have one on our road, it's four houses, but they're typically no more than about ten houses). It's councils who have the power to decide whether this should be more normal in the UK.
Sweden is a bit of a mix, if you look at individual houses those are typically "self builds" - even if a plot is tied to a builder they will have 30-50 different styles and can often customize. On the other hand there are entire swaths of "chain" houses, attached and semi detached houses and those often all look the same
The question is, if design is only visually rooted or if it doesn't also have to skillfully meet and integrate everyday life routines? Is a 3-story-house in this phase of life really practical? What are the spaces that you are really using on an everyday scale? Will you feel comfortable relaxing in a tiny livingroom area that feels like a squeezed-in-balcony exposed to the sounds, smells etc. from the kitchen downstairs and where fetching a glass of water or going to the bathroom requires you to use the stairs; main bathroom with a sliding door and right next to the kitchen and dining area? I have my doubts if this building meets design standards beyond being visually bold ......
Nice!
Such a beautiful building, I certainly hope they keep creating.
Absolutely the best Ive ever seen, especially since Ive lived in and out of the area - welcome brilliance - congrats
She is more than ridiculous , but hope he and her “ partner” can live with this creation.
As long as it fits the needs of the client, the design is just fine. I like it
👌🖐️👏

Kudos to the architect and his details
Looks more like a store front then a home?
Love it all different 👍😎
its ugly
It's not my idea of a home. It looks industrial and cold. I guess people now want boxes to live in? I don't see anything cozy.

You know my uncle self built in #Herefordshire in the 1950s I think.
Being partially deaf and relying on lip reading to hear, this OUT OF SYNC episode was very frustrating to watch/listen to.
I did not notice until i read your comment after 32 minutes😢

I agree. We come to a point in our lives where simple is better. I do not want to climb stairs to use the restroom or get a drink of water!
@@bjbrown It is another great house. But I am glad I am not paying the heating biils for these vast spaces.
@@niccymak8243 It might be a great house but it's a pretty shitty home
Wowwww genius!!
Gorgeous and she is a delight
