    I hate that wall of art. It looks like a mess


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Blah

    This is just blah.

    Like it's nice. But it's not amazing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭BabysCoffee


    I'm not a fan of the decor of the bedroom


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    An 8 :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Another 8 :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    First house, too crazy for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Good man Hugh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,061 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    28. That's a series right there surely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Helen is great at the sums isn't she.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin

    They need to throw Dermot into the middle of it just to shake things up for one episode :D

    Oh god I cannot handle the arrogance and pretentiousness of Dermot!

    Eeek I was watching the news instead of switching over to DTTB

    *heads over to DTTB thread*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,530 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Whats DTTB:confused:

    Caught this on +1.

    The right house won for sure! Wish they'd tell us where they are (house no 2 overlooking Bere Island so that's a clue)

    House no 1 was like the one last week - pretentiously crazy. Too contrived by far for my taste.

    House no 3 was just meh. Really didn't like the exterior, thought they were right about the need for contrast between old and new but just didn't work in this case IMO.

    House no 2 pretty much flawless, other than the bath in the bedroom. As much as she annoys me, had to agree with the girlie judge - I too "like a door"!! But that concrete wall - wow!

    The big fella needs to learn how to say modern - it's not modrin :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    *waves at HeidiHeidi*

    We miss you on the "loive" version of this.

    DTTB is Don't Tell the Bride :)

    Agree with most of this Heidi - but I have to say I love the bath in the bedroom.
    I stayed in a hotel that had the bathroom in a glass box in the bedroom (you could push bamboo screens over the glass) I loved it!

    Ah well now, that's different to having the bath actually IN the bedroom!

    (Maybe I'm a closet prude and I just haven't realised it until now :D )

    Its a poor mans version of the NI programme with Laurence Llewelin Bowen that goes out every two years or so.
    Their format is much better, with an architect assessing the exterior, a designer the interior and an estate agent the probable value.
    The RTE judges offer no critique apart from a few comments on 'not liking the furniture.' Abysmal production values from RTE again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Ah I think that is a bit harsh. I am enjoying it - I wish it was longer than a half an hour though.

    Me personally, I'd hate an estate agent being part of it.

    The NI one is House of the Year (if I'm not mistaken). With the emphasis on architecture.

    The RTE one is Home of the Year. With the emphasis more on interior design and poking around a few of the rooms.

    Subtle difference, but the resulting programmes are worlds apart.

    Fair enough.
    The BBC programme goes out of its way to judge how the house is integrated into its environment with scenic shots etc.
    Judging a house by how its decorated is a bit pointless, to me anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭BabysCoffee


    Anyone watching?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭BabysCoffee

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,061 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    So he says he doesn't just put something in unless it has a purpose.

    What does he use the old till for then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭BabysCoffee


    It's a pretty cool house all the same


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    An 8 from Declan and Helen?

    I'd give it a 9 I really like it :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Cute from the front!

    Oh that's a lot of colours


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,648 ✭✭✭honeybear

    Owner v nice


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,258 ✭✭✭ellejay


    that was a relation of mine's house.
    wouldn't have recognised it.

    they moved everything around.
    it was originally a very very dark house


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭BabysCoffee


    Shutters are nice

    The shutters are nice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,061 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    I'm a few minutes behind, but I really don't like that first house.

    Roll on #2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Love those curtain poles idea!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,713 ✭✭✭BabysCoffee


    Wasn't too impressed by the master bedroom


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,648 ✭✭✭honeybear


    Maybe she was restricted by budget


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    A 6 Declan?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whoa


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Declan is a tough judge

    Oooh the two boyos against Helen coming up :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    On the sky Info they call this a muse house instead of a mews house :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    I like the idea of the panels but that particular wood looks cheap imo
