QUICK GUIDE What is Build It’s Self Build Education House?

The Build It House is a pioneering real-life project designed to give you a unique insight into the process of self building your own bespoke home. The Education House is being erected on Graven Hill, the UK’S largest custom and self build development (www.gravenhill.co.uk). We’ll be following the design and build journey both in the magazine and online – sharing the highs and lows of how a project comes together.

Once it’s completed, the Self Build Education House will showcase the design possibilities and practical choices you’ll need to make over the course of your own scheme. You’ll get to see a wide range of innovative products in situ, from heat pump ventilation through to acoustic screeds, with cutaway panels demonstrating how they’re installed. The finished house will also feature detailed informational graphics explaining the decisions Build It made on this project and how different choices would have affected our construction schedule and costs.
