The Great Interior Design Challenge 2017

[WellErrr]

Anyone watching!?

Loved the last thread, wonder if we'll have a Mumsnetter on the show this year??

Dandelion that wpuld be a good challenge. No period features, chappy light.
Or a bedsit / teeny flat that needed

Outside In! Another bingo!

Or a bedsit/ teeny flat that needed to be quite functional and tick a number of boxes.

No, dilli - off to NM for you

'Tropicana Regency' 😂

Oh how I've missed this.

Really Zebra? I find it so hard to believe that she can be nice- she always comes across as a stone cold bitch on all shows I have seen her.

I want to live in those amazing houses! Being a peasant sucks .

I live in an 80s box. But the 80s are cool now, right?

A hula hoop light fitting and a hideous chintzy headboard . This is really the modern day changing rooms isn't it?

She was the opposite of stone cold, honest! We were both on the same table at a dinner thing, and she was on really good form

I LOVE that green that that chap just had

She was kind of arch though, but entertaining all the same.

I would never live in the man's house, but I think it looks fabulous with all those dark shades and opulent furnishings.

How will Kelly cope with having to judge colour and pattern? All she seems to know is beige, so won't she just hate everything?

bloody hell -that dog lamp

So glad this is back and the thread is back,plus a mn insider! I miss Sophie though I wonder if she was booted out or chose to leave. Cant stand Kelly hoppens beige nexts-version-of-glam style :(

This is really the modern day changing rooms isn't it?

I still remember Lawrence LB doing that awful downstairs dining room and the woman just bursting into tears when she saw it.

That mans house is trippy as fuck. The green hallway!

Kelly is always banging on about symmetry, isn't she? So I am predicting er, symmetrical stuff, just to impress her.

Those cheap crappy lamps. O. M. G.

Verdigris patina = aqua paint rammed on B&Q lamp

I can't pick a winner yet.

LLB stuff was always bloody awful - I think there was more than one person bursting into tears on his big 'reveals'! It always looked like everything would fall to bits within a couple of weeks.

I hope they don't do the challenge thing this series, it's always shit.

WTF was she doing to that lamp? Why couldn't she just spray paint it copper?

I think there might be a bursting-into-tears episode when the owner sees that peach ceiling and the shitty 'verdigris' lamps

Wallpaper is such funny thing- I wallpapered my bedroom wall and ordered extra rolls for pattern matching. But when it came to it it turned out that pattern matched the length of my walls, so there was no need to match it- just cut and glue, so I ended up with extra rolls.

I feel I need to confess that after the last series, I purchased some gold spray paint.
It remains unopened.

But come to think of it, my kids no longer use their hula hoops...

Does peach ever look good? To me it's like orange and brown- always looks terrible unless used in tiny quantities.

So, felix - can you tell us more? How were you approached for the show?
Had you seen the last series?

Zebra I may have spray painted gold my bedside cabinets. And knobs on my chest.
