UK Channel 4 Would Like to Film Houses and Architects in Ireland
Grand Designs is one of Channel 4’s most successful programmes, regularly attracting 5 million viewers in the UK. Each programme follows a new build, major conversion or renovation with a unique approach to creating a home environment. In the past we have filmed the construction of cutting edge contemporary designs, eco-houses, underground houses and period homes as well as the conversion of water towers, barns and factories. You can find out more about the programme at http://www.channel4.com/granddesigns.
