Based on one person building the set for the first time, following the original instructions and using numbered bags where supplied. Includes normal piece-finding and minor adjustments; excludes long breaks, filming, dismantling and modifications. Sources may use different methods. This range is neither a statistical interval nor a limit: your build may take less or more time.

How we estimate times · sources and method

Furnishings, glazing and asymmetrical forms. Main house without dismantling or rebuilding. The three central durations are model-specific editorial assessments. Planning ranges extend approximately from 65% to 145%, rounded to quarter-hours; they are not measured experience-level averages or guaranteed limits.

Sources do not always specify the builder’s experience. The three experience bands are our editorial assessment, based on the complexity of the set and individual accounts where available.

A modern house in nature

SET THE MOOD

A soundtrack for your build

Modern House · Selected for the building rhythm

Small acoustic motifs and curious combinations accompany shapes to invent and scenes to build. A playful suggestion for the building table rather than a song tied to a brand.
