Grand Designs tonight

[Tarrel]

I didn't see the show, but I wonder if they used one of the Dualchas houses. Dualchas is a young, skye-based architects practice. They specialise in designing homes echoing traditional designs (e.g. Crofting longhouse) but built to modern insulation standards. Typical approach is open plan design, with a centrally located wood burning stove, lots of glass for solar gain and a hyper-insulated outer shell. Dualchas means "Heritage" in Gaelic. They have teamed up with a company to produce their designs in kit-form.
