Grand Designs: Deconstructed

Healing Homes, Greg’s New Year's Eve Confession & Kevin’s Desert Island Tool

Grand Designs: Deconstructed

Show Notes

In this final episode of Grand Designs: Deconstructed, Greg James and Kevin McCloud revisit one of the most emotional Grand Designs builds yet, the Sevenoaks barn conversion.

Back in 2019, Greg and Georgie took on the challenge of transforming a dilapidated diary barn into a peaceful haven, despite facing serious health struggles and a global pandemic along the way.

Now, five years later, Kevin returns to see how their home and their lives have evolved. Together, Greg and Kevin unpack what it means for a building to truly heal you, how determination can defy the odds, and what really happens when a dream project meets real life.
