So another home improvement programme.
Architect doing it for no money and designs seem successful but....
I've seen two and each time they've overspent by 50% of original budget.
Is this because the client or architect issuing unrealistic? Or architect just going for it without caring about impact on client?
Fugly house to....another fugly house
Architect needs to squeeze as much juice out of their client as possible so no surprise there. It is business as usual.
Why not employ an architect from another country? As cheap Polish architect perhaps?

The Crooked House is a very unusual house found in Sopot, Poland. It was designed by Szotynscy Zaleski and was built in 2004. In erecting this piece of architecture, he was inspired children’s drawing books. Don’t be so shocked if you’ll find similarities between Jan Marcin Szancer fairytales drawing books or Per Dahlberg’s artworks and Zaleski’s Crooked House. These were the main sources of inspiration for the Crooked House.
The structure has three stories and is built amongst a row of houses in Bohaterow Monte Cassino Street. It looks as if it was the most “tired” design of house in the world, but there are some that say that it looks like it is melted. Many visitors in Poland go to Sopot to take a look at The Crooked House. It is dubbed as one of the most photographed buildings in the whole country. It houses pubs, restaurants and several shops.

As someone who recently bought a house near Wokingham and looked at plenty, I can confirm the architecture is indeed crap, and there are a lot of badly designed extensions

False jeopardy
I watched the one last week & thought its still an ugly house painted a modern color with a single interesting feature, I don't want to watch anymore.
