BBC show Design Masters heads to Eastbourne for latest episode

During last night’s episode of Design Masters, contestants were tasked with transforming Eastbourne’s beach chalets.

The five remaining designers in the BBC show, which is based in Brighton, were given a brief for each chalet and had two days to revamp the 90-year-old structures into multi-functional seaside retreats.

The episode was filmed last year and the designers set to work on their smallest spaces to date while battling a heatwave.

Peter Irvine was given the challenge of adapting the space for a multi-generational family with the theme of “flamboyant florals”.

Temi Johnson’s client, who is a GP, wanted an “eco conscious chalet”.

Temi was the runaway winner, and the rest of the designers were hauled into Michelle’s office to discuss their designs.

Peter was eliminated, with his design compared to a “railway carriage” by Llewelyn-Bowen.
