Tracy Fox and her husband, Steve, aim to create an 'urban shed' using industrial materials in a former milk yard in southeast London. However, their unconventional material choices lead to complications and increased expenses. The design includes two studios, three bedrooms, and a striking double-height area with a walkway, utilizing materials like corrugated cement fiberboard and 20-foot polycarbonate panels. Progress halts until they encounter Romas and Remi, a dynamic young construction team that confidently agrees to tackle the project for only £300k.
