Torrent Description
 Grand Designs - Series 15, Episode 4 Living in the Country Rural living doesn't instantly bring images of cutting edge architecture to mind. Barns, thatched cottages and poky farmhouses, yes, but not striking, contemporary buildings with swooping roofs and glass walls. However, Kevin McCloud thinks there is a quiet revolution going on in our countryside and to prove it, he reminds us of some of Grand Designs' most extraordinary country homes. Kevin McCloud looks at the challenges of self-building in the countryside, where design must embrace and enhance tradition, yet often overcome stringent planning constraints. Drawing on footage from the show's 15-year history, as well as new visits to extraordinary homes, he finds out how pioneers at the forefront of architecture are transforming agricultural and historic buildings, and bringing cutting-edge contemporary design to rural parts. Original Air Date: 30-Jul-2015
