Kevin McCloud returns to allergy-proof home to see if measures to improve air quality helped improve family's health
"The couple prioritized air quality, natural materials, and low-toxin finishes, resulting in a single-storey home designed to ensure a safe environment for their children."
"Construction was challenging due to narrow access, requiring the couple to negotiate access across borrowed land to facilitate the development of the 700m² basement."
"The home's features included an airtight membrane and an MVHR system enhanced with filters, aimed at maintaining clean air circulation and minimizing allergens."
"Built with timber and eco-friendly materials, the house reflected the couple's commitment to creating a beautiful yet health-focused living space, described as a 'garden shed'."
In a recent Grand Designs episode, a fitness entrepreneur and gallery owner from South West London constructed a unique house tailored for their children, who suffer from severe allergies. Focusing on air quality, they used low-toxin materials and innovative ventilation systems to create a safe, clean environment. The build faced challenges due to limited access to the plot but ultimately resulted in a stunning single-storey home with tiered gardens, all while prioritizing their children's health and wellbeing, emphasizing natural elements and sustainable practices in the construction.
