Iconic Property Show Set to Return Soon – A Major Win for Aussie Fans

A legendary property show is just months away from returning to our screens - and the host has gushed 'it's a great privilege'.

Fans will be happy to know that Channel 4 's Grand Designs: House Of The Year will be back with another series.

The upcoming four-part series will air on the popular channel following a new series of Grand Designs this Autumn.

And Kevin McCloud, Damion Burrows and Natasha Huq will host the show.

Viewers are expected to see some of the 'finest contemporary homes', which are all on the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) shortlist, and the winner will be revealed during the final episode.

Presenter Kevin said: 'This series celebrates, as ever, a sparkling range of what’s possible in domestic architecture today.

'So, it’s a great privilege to be able to help uncover these gems of creative imagination and of course it’s a complete joy to be back presenting House Of The Year alongside Natasha and Damion.'

While Damion added: 'I am thrilled to be back on the road with House Of The Year.

'This series never fails to amaze me, from jaw-dropping designs to the personal stories behind the builds.

'It is always inspiring to meet the architects and homeowners who have worked so closely together, pouring their heart and soul into creating some truly original and groundbreaking homes.'

And Natasha said: 'It is such a privilege to return for another series of House Of The Year.

'These aren’t just impressive homes, they challenge how we think about space, materials and the care of our resources.

'There is something deeply inspiring about the way architecture can quietly transform how we think about the world and our place within it, and I am excited to share that with viewers again this year.'

Grand Designs: House of the Year has been commissioned by Ian Dunkley.

The legendary property show first hit our screens in 2015 and has gone on to have seven successful series.

IMDB's official synopsis reads: 'Every year the Royal Institute of British Architects looks for the best new home in Britain, and this time Grand Designs is along for the ride.'

The show is a spin-off of Grand Designs.

The programme first hit our screens on Channel 4 in 1999.

There has been 159 series across 22 series over the years.

The show is presented by Kevin McCloud.

'Kevin McCloud follows people as they build their dream house, often focusing on modern design, energy efficiency, maximizing space and views,' IMDB's synopsis reads.

Back in May Grand Designs presenter Kevin revealed the fate of one of the show's most ambitious projects.

Kevin revisited Elinor and Born Barikor in Richmond, south west London, after they appeared on the show seven years ago to build an allergy-proof 'healthy house' to help their sons avoid potentially fatal attacks and reactions.

The couple share three children - Avery, then aged seven, Pascal, five and a daughter Blakely, aged three.

The boys have severe, potentially life threatening allergies to dairy, wheat, egg, gluten, soya, oats, pulses, beans and fruits, and nuts, as well as dust, pollen and animal fur.

'The house has probably helped a lot, it’s helped with my asthma and so I’m capable of doing sports,' Pascal said.

How Much Could Intel Save by Harnessing AI for Marketing?

Image
Intel Corp (NASDAQ: INTC) is pushing meaningfully to the upside this morning following reports that the struggling chipmaker plans on outsourcing marketing to artificial intelligence (AI). The multinational has partnered with the Dublin headquartered Accenture Plc (NYSE: ACN) that plans on using AI to replace many of INTC’s marketing jobs. Intel’s move is reportedly a part of its broader commitment to lower costs and cruise swiftly toward profitability. At the time of writing, Intel shares are up some 23% versus their year-to-date low. Intel to save millions from using AI for marketing INTC is convinced that tapping into Accenture’s AI technology will help efficiently transform data into information, personalize customer experiences, and automate processes over time. The semiconductor behemoth hasn’t disclosed the kind of costs it expects to save from its team up with ACN – but it’s reasonable to assume that they’d be in the ballpark of hundreds of millions. W...

Jillian Billman, 17, was a dancer, John was the King of Pop. The pair were performing in the 1971 musical Charlie Girl and from the second he spotted her, he recalled, “I was history.” Not that she was equally as besotted as her future husband. “It took me about three months to get a kiss,”John would tell 60 Minutes in 1993. “We started to go out together and it naturally happened.

What AI Can Really Do Now: 6 Key Lessons for Mastering Artificial Intelligence

I'd be happy if by the time I retire, we have [ artificial intelligence ] systems that are as smart as a cat," Yann LeCun , Meta 's chief AI scientist, Turing Award winner and one of the founding fathers of deep learning, tells as part of an ongoing series of conversations about the future of AI , "and that retirement is coming fast, by the way, so I don't have much time." LeCun sees the extraordinary promise of AI on the horizon. But so far we haven't seen this degree of success. While venture capital and corporate investment pours billions of dollars into AI dream factories promising revolutionary transformations—whether it's curing cancer or finally taming the email inbox—a stark reality persists: Most artificial intelligence initiatives collapse under their own ambitions. The gulf between technological marvel and practical utility resembles a paradise island ringed by shipwrecks—the quest for supreme omniscience has left th...
