Grand designs

Anyone watch it?

I didn't like the building at all, it was a warehouse that was never designed to be lived in, once tarted up it still looked like a warehouse only with a big shiny windows.

The views were great but I'd want an attractive building too having spent near £1m.

Most impressed with the 10mm thick xenon filled double glazing units though.

Yer I watched it. They do have an eye for design but I didnt like the basic shape and the industrial windows on the upper floors.

Not keen on the metal walkway, but the stonework was nicely touched up. Those wooden beams were awesome too.

I didn't like it at all, looked cold and office-like to me. Could have done so much more for £1m.

I find that a lot with the Grand Design houses. Usually they cost a mint for a 2 bed house that looks like some kind of office.

For £1m on a grade II listed building though?

Personally I liked it : maybe I am odd.....

Again, another building that lacked soul and looked like a gallery.

A lot of money for nowt.

Soulless and cold just about sum it up I think.
