Architectural designer Lincoln Miles and his wife, artist Lisa Traxler, take on a very ambitious bungalow conversion on the Isle of Wight.

Lincoln and Lisa want to build their own home. But good land is hard to find, so they turn to an increasingly popular solution called bungalow gobbling - buying a property on a prime piece of land and transforming it.

They hope to turn their stone-clad bungalow into a creative structure that sensitively responds to its unspoilt woodland setting. But the planned extensions are huge, and by using unconventional techniques and materials, no one is quite sure what this building will end up looking like.
