Jude🇵🇸<p>Extraordinary final <a href="https://toot.community/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> of the season: a spectacular circular concrete water tower. My dream home. Look at that formwork! Makes a refreshing change from bloody barns.</p>
steeznson<p>I had no idea there were so many conspiracy theories around Kevin McCloud from <a href="https://glasgow.social/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> on Channel 4 in the UK. My favourite two from the thread I read today were that he was:</p><p>1) Sleeping with every wife on the show which is why there are so many unexpected pregnancies.</p><p>2) An energy vampire, so the show participants' lives go to shit every time he shows up.</p><p>It all makes so much sense.</p>
Jude🇵🇸<p>The Poms and their barn houses. Tonight's <a href="https://toot.community/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> features YET ANOTHER barn, but this one is the world's biggest live-in barn and is as ugly as buggery.</p>
Janet<p>The first fix and furniture are in, although the roof doesn’t fit and is not secured - and the bespoke door has arrived but of course the hinges are in the wrong place!!! It does look comfy and has an <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/AgroChic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AgroChic</span></a> style but Kevin is concerned about the ducks finances. They have paid the builders *all* their eggs and now signed away all future eggs to cover their housing costs. 😬 <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/ducks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ducks</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/DuckScrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DuckScrolling</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/poultry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>poultry</span></a> 5/lots</p>
Jenny Fx<p>Watching old <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> where Kevin is in awe about the latest 2008 technology of lighting schemes and hidden security cameras. </p><p>I feel for the people who designed their whole living room around a 45-inch built-in TV and a stacking built-in CD stereo system.</p>

Preston von Gabbleduck<p>OK, the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a> Hempcrete House in the Huon Valley is brilliant. And goes to prove that you can build a beautiful home with a small budget, as opposed to the monstrosities that are typically built with some decadently stupid budget.</p>

matt303<p>Well that was a horrid <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a>, not paying for detailed drawings, not having arranged a roofer before the frame went up, falling out with architect, knocking down your parents one off designed 60's character building, making your sick partner sicker and ending up with something so horrid the architect disowns the result on the program.</p>
swisslet<p>Kara has Neuromyelitis optica (NMO), if you’re interested. Her attitude was inspiring and, as I’ve been a bit down in the dumps about my legs, also something of a reminder about the power of positive thinking. </p><p> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/MS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MS</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/TV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TV</span></a></p>
swisslet<p>I watched <a href="https://mas.to/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> last night and was moved by the courage and sunny optimism of Kara, who had suddenly lost her ability to walk because of a rare neurological condition. As someone with <a href="https://mas.to/tags/MS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MS</span></a>, this felt close to home for me, but her positive attitude and the love and devotion of her amazing husband Jonny in doing the lion’s share of the work on their new accessible home was lovely to watch. </p><p><a href="https://www.channel4.com/programmes/grand-designs" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">channel4.com/programmes/grand-</span><span class="invisible">designs</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/TV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TV</span></a></p>
piofthings<p>Just realised Grand Designs is back on Channel 4. Well that’s a few weeks of TV sorted!

Tim 🎮<p>I'm background-comfort-watching some vintage <a href="https://digipres.club/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a> and am wishing that, at least once, instead of finding the tiniest crumb of pleasantness to gush about in an otherwise awful, painfully wasteful and ugly build, Kevin had had the courage to cold-open with "Nope. This one's mad. Just completely bonkers" before angrily storming off out of frame.</p>
Jude🇵🇸<p>Two Poms with *vocal fry* are building a double *barn* house on <a href="https://toot.community/tags/GrandDesigns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GrandDesigns</span></a>...
