Having spent the best part of 10 years talking about buildings, getting excited about new technologies and materials, plus critiquing the emotional journey of more than 50 Grand Designers - finally, it's time to turn the tables on Kevin McCloud's traditional role and watch him build his own house. But, clearly it won't be that easy when the pressure's on him...
Kevin's brief is simple; to design and build a sustainable house, using traditional materials and techniques along side cutting-edge 21st Century technology which underpins his green principles.
Key to any good 'Grand Design' is the architect, and well known for his sustainable design practice, RIBA award-winning architect Duncan Baker Brown was the ideal choice to design Kevin's house.
Kevin will also be using recycled materials such as old mobile phones, glass bottles and newspapers within the build.
But where most Grand Designers have a year or two to get their dream project from foundation to completion, Kevin will have just six days - with the added pressure of the TV cameras scrutinizing his every move!
However he won't be alone - every day he'll invite one of his famous friends - the likes of Phil and Kirstie, Janet Street Porter and Naomi Cleaver, to come to his aid to assist with The House That Kevin Built.
