The Great Interior Design Challenge 2017 ... CONTINUED

Starting this one as I finished last one...

So, Daniela I think will win as it looks like it's been written/plotted that way since the beginning..

I don't think Daniela is either outstandingly good or bad - she's fine, she's okay.

That's why the mega enthusiasm of the judges is so weird.

The first time she appeared, Daniel and Kelly bigger her up so much, I thought - 'Does she know them?' - it was just like ridiculous.

But here she is in the final - quelle surprise!

Saw it coming from her first appearance and it had nothing to do with her design - and everything to do with what the judges were signalling in the voiceover.

'Hey viewers, Daniela is good, good good...'

Bit brainwashy without ever really explaining why she is better than the others.

I don't think she's bad - but there is not enough discernible difference to justify the bigging up that she gets.

Written in the stars eh?

Oh my god - the second you touch one of those kitchen cabinets it'll be covered in fingerprints Shock. I actually like the overall effect but....!

The living room is horrid

PurpleDaisies · 19/01/2017 20:49

That living room was awful. Again, I preferred it before. Like the look of the kitchen even if it's really impractical.

dillite · 19/01/2017 20:49

I do like that kitchen- but it is just so massively impractical! It will look dirty all the time with those mirrors.

Why the fuck is that mirror that high up?

LIZS · 19/01/2017 20:49

Mirror cupboards will need constant polishing, nightmare.

RTKangaMummy · 19/01/2017 20:49

The finish on floor under white box is BAD where old fireplace was

Cocolepew · 19/01/2017 20:50

They dont sound too sure Grin

DesolateWaist · 19/01/2017 20:50

What is with the tea towel stapled to your nan's coffee table?

MyCatsHateMLMtoo · 19/01/2017 20:50

Oh dear, bronze mirror cabinets/drawers in the kitchen? Not practical at all. I would be forever cleaning the smears/food/fingerprints off the blooming things. no I wouldn't, they'd stay looking dirty, and piss me off

The floating shelves by doorway would be knocked into constantly and the crockery would fall off. Not practical.

PurpleDaisies · 19/01/2017 20:51

The home owners really weren't all that keen were they?

RTKangaMummy · 19/01/2017 20:51

Oliver's finished product is soooooo much better

TheSpottedZebra · 19/01/2017 20:51

Ol's been to Ikea again.

But /and I love the tiling.

GrouchyKiwi · 19/01/2017 20:51

Oooh, I like the green tiles in Oliver's kitchen. It looks so cold, though. I couldn't have that in Scotland. Grin

dillite · 19/01/2017 20:51

Oh, Oliver's kitchen is so pretty. And I love that huge window and the colour of those tiles.

dazzlingdeborahrose · 19/01/2017 20:51

Oliver's rooms are superior in every way. Style, finish, just everything. Daniela's rooms are just stark and poorly finished. Her strength is supposed to be styling but I can't see any of that here.

TheSpottedZebra · 19/01/2017 20:52

Ooooh, his is so much better.

GrouchyKiwi · 19/01/2017 20:52

I like parts of the bedroom.

Overall I'm very disappointed with the rooms in this final.

StepfauxWife · 19/01/2017 20:52

I love the bedroom that Oliver has created.

Who is Sophie?! She is annoying. "This is so fierce"... "it's right up my straza". What?!

DustOffYourHighestHopes · 19/01/2017 20:53

"It's right up my strasse"!!!!

fourquenelles · 19/01/2017 20:53

Loooooove that wallpaper

dillite · 19/01/2017 20:53

I don't think that the bed needed those curtains. But I do like the overall look of the room.

I think that Kelly hates it.

GrouchyKiwi · 19/01/2017 20:54

Agree with Daniel about the bed. Needs a mink throw across the bottom (or something similar but less tacky).

MyCatsHateMLMtoo · 19/01/2017 20:54

It is hard to take someone seriously when they represent interior design and are wearing those ridiculous earrings.

Love the four poster bedroom. Beautiful!

PurpleDaisies · 19/01/2017 20:54

I normally hate coloured ceilings but I liked the blue in Oliver's kitchen.

Every room of his was better than Daniella's.

DesolateWaist · 19/01/2017 20:54

'By throwing all my stuff away it now looks empty'

Cedilla · 19/01/2017 20:55

Surely Oliver must win?
