Renovating an Old Factory

Impossibly cute French Instagram couple Rachel and Emilien bought an old factory to renovate into a home. This time-lapse video shows two years of their work. It's kind of long, but totally mesmerizing. I expected to skip through, but I couldn't stop watching. Be warned that it ends before the work is complete. The finished product will be the best-insulated home you've ever seen. Americans lament them not leaving exposed brick inside for the charm, but heating fuel is more expensive in Europe, and regulations stipulate how much insulation is mandatory. (via Digg)
