Mark Isitt

In Grand Design's House of the Year, architecture critic and presenter Mark Isitt visits unique and spectacular houses and meets the people behind the astute and daring design. The houses compete in four different categories and a jury consisting of some of the country's foremost architects then selects the winner in each class, to finally choose what will be the House of the Year.

Meet hopeful house enthusiasts and follow along as they build their dream home. Magnificent architecture, incomparable surroundings and innovative ideas await when no vision is too difficult to realize. Architecture critic Mark Isitt guides us through the process, from the very first sod to the last.
