Kevin McCloud follows the progress of Zahid and Ferzana from Leeds as they set out to transform an obsolete coastguard station in East Yorkshire into a cantilevered, three-storey home made of steel and glass to enhance their panoramic sea views. With a tight budget of £325,000 and a goal of finishing in 10 months, the pair had their son Yusef manage the project but when Yusef gets a career opportunity he can't turn down and Covid hits the couple's business, will they be able to stick to their budget and time frame?

Holistic therapist Kara and electrician Jonny are building a striking stone and zinc four-bedroom family home in the rolling hills of West Yorkshire, for themselves and their two young children. The need to build has been motivated by Kara's recent paralysis, caused by a rare autoimmune condition. Their ambition for the house is enormous, as Kara wants to create a home that is not only beautiful but will help her regain some independence. With money tight, Jonny needs to take on a lot of the work himself. As the build progresses, and despite the challenges coming thick and fast, compromise is not an option with both form and function so essential. Building their single storey pushes both Kara and Jonny to the edge of their emotional and physical reserves, but if they can pull it off, it might just redefine what accessible design means
