So they want to know down a decent looking Bungalow to build a more sustainable and eco-friendly house.
Oh dear God.
If they just said 'great land'- open, ideas etc FINE
I've got the footy on instead, Hora.
she's got I'm a washed up celeb trying to boost my profile on 🙄
not so eco-friendly so far. Concrete founds etc and yes, she annoys.
what else you going to build your foundations from? straw?
Reclaimed brick? Reclaimed timber?
You don't have to use mass concrete - beam, pads etc.
A building utterly devoid of any character.
I didn't like it. The 'swimming pool' was utterly pointless.
I liked it. It had character of its own, and I'd happily have an identical house built if I had the money.
But then, I like Frank Lloyd Wright's designs.
Utterly utterly amazing. timeless and beautiful

I loved it, up there with the house in the woods for me. How is a swimming pool pointless if you have kids?
Hora, if you compare every house to falling water you're going to be hard to please!
What's with the example of Falling Water, is this an example of an eco-friendly home?
That house would be very noisy wouldn't it, I mean all that running water n'all.
Falling water has serious structural issues does it not?
Falling water has serious structural issues does it not?
If it says so in Wiki, it must be true. Mainly due to Mr Wright not listening to the opinions of others in the blind belief that he knew best. Funny innit?
Reclaimed brick? Reclaimed timber?
Reclaimed concrete.
Or the bodies of Clarkson's pogrom http://uk.news.yahoo.com/jeremy-clarkson-calls-strikers-shot-012156802.html

that ceiling looks like its been pulled from an 80's chinese restaurant. dated and ugly.
Ahhh Clarkson - a little bit of Murdoch paid for by the license fee.
Warton 😯 you eat at some bloody classy art deco restaurants
think with these if yo are going down the kit house route it should be a proper kit... i.e. one that is truly finished when you assemble it..
they lost all the benefits of a quick build due to all the other rubbish
How is a swimming pool pointless if you have kids?
I know lots of people who have kids and don't have a pool built in to the house. The pool is so small that once the kids are in their teens it will still be a paddling pool. Building a small pool that will date badly in to the house wasn't really in keeping with their more sustainable living ethos. As others have said, they missed their declaired aim through including such things.
I though the pool was justified in the eco-bollocks? It was a heat store for blah, blah, blah.
I can't be arsed, she was such a silly cow.
Falling Water = Rising Mildew. I like that.
