Grand Designs - Series 15, Episode 3
Living in Suburbia
To many people suburbia means mock Tudor houses, privet hedges and garden gnomes – a stagnating sprawl of boredom. But a few individuals have overturned that image with what were considered at the time to be exciting, innovative self-builds.
Kevin McCloud reveals how self-builders in the suburbs are transforming this most maligned of residential environments. He draws on some of the best examples from the 15-year history of Grand Designs, talks to experts in the latest architectural thinking and reveals the designs that have reinvented the suburbs as a place where home-owners really can have it all.
