Episode 6: The Self Build The First-time Buyer’s Bible by Bank of Ireland
-
- Society & Culture
This week I sit with Harrison Gardner, who's an author, builder, and teacher with 15 years’ experience designing and managing the construction of conventional and alternative buildings worldwide. Stunning. His book, Build Your Own, guides own builders on the fundamentals of construction and managing a self-built project.
He's also co-founder of Common Knowledge, the non-profit social enterprise focused on sharing skills for a sustainable life. And we Love his work. So we're going to talk more on this. He's also the host of Build Your Own, a four-part TV series on RTE. It follows the trials and tribulations of homeowners across Ireland as they take on the challenge of building their own home.
He is the perfect person to speak to about building your own and the larger side of renovations and how we can make them more sustainable. This is a wonderful and comforting episode that I think you will really enjoy.
