    Kevin McCloud, Damion Burrows and Michelle Ogundehin visit five properties demonstrating exceptional use of materials and craftsmanship. They include a bold contemporary barn, forged from corten steel and concrete, a small urban house squeezed into a plot the size of a London Tube carriage, and a Scandi-Scottish lochside bolthole, hewn from Highland stone and Danish oak. The others are a wooden wonderland extension in east London and a Surrey home with an extraordinary engineered timber roof

    Season 6 Episode 3 - Aired 12/1/2021

    Kevin McCloud, Damion Burrows and Michelle Ogundehin visit five properties that solve problems, including a modernist riverside house designed to withstand extreme floods, a modular timber home that elegantly resolves the challenges of building in a remote environment and a house that deploys discreet camouflage to blend into its overlooked setting. The others are a pared-back barn conversion that neatly sidesteps the pitfalls of restoring agricultural buildings and a Japanese-inspired house that proves a standard budget need not be an obstacle to building a bespoke home
