Islington: The House of Straw Revisit
TV-PG
Specials • E10 Jan 1, 2013 45mOver many series of Grand Designs, Kevin McCloud has seen the vision and commitment of couples culminate in the creation of their ideal home. From houses made made of straw bales and built in 6 days, to one embedded into its wooded landscape and another integrated with a landmark water tower, the projects have been unique, incredibly ambitious and ultimately inspirational. But have they stood the test of time? And did they fulfil the promises and dreams their owners had strived so relentlessly for? By request, this DVD revisits 8 projects, some ten years on, to answer those key questions.
