After eight years of planning, Melbourne couple Glenn and Kate Morris are finally making a start on their striking, sustainable 'sand dune' house near Inverloch on Victoria's Gippsland coastline. For them, this crescent shaped, spaceship-like design is the ultimate response to a wind swept location. Once building gets underway, the couple need even more patience as attention to detail is paramount in this curvaceous new building. Let's hope it lives up to their high expectations.

Hoteliers Richard and Denise have knocked down the family home in the Adelaide Hills and are rebuilding an even bigger version, despite the fact their kids are grown. This modern mansion will have all the bells and whistles, amid resort-like luxury on three tiered acres overlooking Adelaide, but is this unpretentious, likeable couple creating a home or a hotel for themselves? Money may be no object, but have they taken on too much?
