In season 2 episode 7 of Great Interior Design Challenge, the contestants are given the task to design eco-friendly homes. They have to show how modern decor can coexist with sustainability and how the two can complement each other, without compromising on style.
The show takes us on an exciting journey of design solutions that have a low environmental impact yet maintain the aesthetic appeal of a beautiful home. The designers take up the challenge and start with researching all possible eco-friendly options. From the use of recycled materials to the selection of energy-efficient devices, they explore all the possibilities to come up with creative solutions that fit the brief.
The contestants explore different eco-friendly technologies, including the use of solar panels for energy, water conservation through rainwater harvesting, and the use of natural light to reduce the need for artificial light. As each room must have a specific purpose, the designers try to create a balance between functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability.
As the challenge progresses, the designers must also take into account the cost of their designs. They must make sure their designs are affordable and accessible enough to inspire people to adopt eco-friendly living. This requires a delicate balance between eco-friendliness and cost-effectiveness.
The judges of the show, Daniel Hopwood and Sophie Robinson, critique the designs with a keen eye for detail. They assess the contestants' designs on the criteria of sustainability, functionality, and aesthetics. They also focus on how the designs fit the brief, and show how eco-friendly design can be achieved without sacrificing style.
As the episode progresses, we see how the contestants tackle different design problems. One contestant focuses on the use of recycled materials to create stunning lighting fixtures, while another uses natural light and greenery to add vibrancy to a space.
Throughout the episode, there are moments of tension as the contestants strive to meet the challenge requirements. But in the end, we see some beautiful, inspiring designs that not only meet the challenge requirements but also exceed them.
Great Interior Design Challenge season 2 episode 7 Eco Homes is a unique episode that challenges designers to create stunning interiors while being mindful of the environment.
