Home

I was hoping they would focus on the architecture of the buildings - the way the homes and constructed. The design process. Instead they seem to focus every episode almost entirely on the owners and their personal stories. Could have been so much better, such a shame.

I love this series. Especially the Bali bamboo houses, the African, the Iceland, sweden, France & India. So connected to local materials, history & family. My favorite was the Iceland concrete factory house.

The most boring ones were the ones in USA in Malibu & Austin, Long Island, Chicago . Expensive, shallow & disconnected.

I watched the first season of this show a year or so ago and really liked it. The second season - not so much. This review will be basically about the second season since it's fresh in my mind.

On too many of the "Homes" - the owner/architects and their backgrounds and, frankly, childhoods and all kinds of other things were examined. Everything BUT the house.

This is called "Home" - Not "Meet the Family". I watched this because of an interested in the architecture and a bit of background is great, but OMG, there were episodes where the house was barely shown, but I now know waaaaaaaay too much about the people who built them.

I won't give a list, because everything is relevant. The ones that are good are so worth the watch! The ones that aren't, well, they are people's stories and I used fast forward. You can too, if you want.

Sad commentary on what could have been a really memorable show.

The series explores different homes as well as its inhabitants that created them around the world.

Before watching the series I must say that I was fairly excited. I'm a big fan of Netflix Abstract series, and when a high quality docu-series about architecture was about to come out by Apple I had high expectations. But I have to say that I feel as if the series is a bit flat, and hasn't managed to get the same depth as Abstract. In the case of Home, I feel as if the creators has strived to tell a more sensational and sentimental story, instead of showing us these homes, how they were built and how people actually live in them. The music can sometimes also be a bit forced. I feel throughout the series as if the music heavily tried to make us feel something specific at any given moment.

I ended the series with the knowledge of a lot of cool new homes, but nothing about how it is to live in them.

Interesting to watch, but the people involved seem to have no understanding of reality or care to know what it is like to be the "average" person.
