Good, but it gets a little repetitive
What's about all those people thinking they could be project coordinators in their spare time? Or they don't need an architect?
Of course, the show wouldn't be as interesting without it, but the same old same old budget problem is getting a little annoying.
First they want to build their dream home as big and pompous as possible But all of them have wrong budget expectations. Then they want it built in months during the worst possible snow and rain storms. And in the end they magically have enough money for it, but it took 4 years instead of 2.
I love seeing new ides for houses, learn more about architecture and building problems, but I don't need the personal drama in each episode. Will they have enough money? Will the weather get better? Will they finally move in? That gets a little boring. The architecture itself should be the focus. And the building site.
It is what it is
It's a tv show about building your own home in the UK and Ireland. It shows the up and downs and difficulties involved in a self build. Reviews here on IMDB are pretentious to say the least. Over aliasing every aspect of it it's a diy show for mid week tv pre prime time. And just to say one last thing. 18 years it running. Season 18. So it's doing something right.

Perfect show. Period.
My wife and me are enjoying so much this series as it has everything. Kevin is really great in knowledge, presentation, energy, witty humor and communication. The houses are amazing on so many levels, educational and a joy to watch. It's atmosphere, soft music background and the original content every episode brings makes it so entertaining and inspiring to watch. Well done!
Pretentious people
The new Grand Designs was such a disappointment tonight. £££££££ but no taste or environmental protection. I hate these silly people who ruin habitats and don't care about the local area. Sod off you lot. Rich idiots are unfashionable.
Amazing show
Kevin mc cloud is genius and so good to listen he explain and follows up perfectly.
Grand design becomes a good show with him.
One of my best number one shows ever...
