BBC One show Interior Design Masters has reached its aesthetic crescendo at regal Blenheim Palace - with the two remaining contestants taking polar opposite approaches to try and impress the judges. 

Designers Rosin and Matt went head-to-head in the last episode of the series, which aired on Tuesday, with the pair challenged to revamp two holiday lodges in the grounds of the historic country pile where Sir Winston Churchill was born. 

An emotional Rosin was crowned winner after she won over the judges - Michelle Ogundehin and US designer Jonathan Adler, with her highly eclectic design, which featured bold, floral patterned wallpaper - including on the ceilings, a bright yellow living room and scallop fringes galore.

The marmite design divided viewers though, with many suggesting the collision of colour and use of patterns was 'headache-inducing' and at odds with the peaceful, rural setting.  

Wham bam! Rosin's winning design in the final episode of Interiors Design Masters featured bold colours, wallpapered ceilings and lots of scallop fringeing 

The living room of the winning design was painted yellow - but judges Michelle Ogundehin and US designer Jonathan Adler said they loved the vibrant vision of Rosin's holiday lodge

Meanwhile Matt opted for a 'brooding' look, using panelling and black paint for the hallways, a black dado rail in the living room area and a gold leaf kitchen island.

He tied in modern gold chandeliers and baroque wall arts to reflect the grandiose decor of the palace - and presenter Alan Carr declared 'Matt for the win'...but then later uttered the same words to rival Rosin. 

However, sadly for Matt, the judges were more impressed with Rosin's blast of colour, suggesting that Matt's sofa wasn't big enough in the living room and he'd spent too much time on pannelling rooms.  

When the winner was finally announced by judge Michelle, Matt looked as moody as his decor at the results, viewers noted. 

On social media, many suggesting the talented young designer had been 'robbed' - suggesting that Rosin's dizzying decor was too much for a tourist stay.  

One wrote: 'Matt on Interior Design Masters really can't hide how p****d off he is at losing.'

Another wrote: 'Rosin is lovely BUT Matt was robbed. His scheme was classy and professional & he nailed the brief.' 

A furious viewer raged: 'One designer followed the brief and the other went wild. Totally wrong decision and unfair. Matt, you won.' 

Matt had, said viewers, followed the brief of incorporating regal themes from Blenheim Palace; the two lodges sit in the grounds of the Oxfordshire pile

Many suggested Matt should have been awarded the top prize, because he 'followed the brief' 

Another didn't mince their words, writing: 'I laughed... as if that blast of horrendous mess of colour was top design - if they gave me that lodge at Blenheim I would leave. Loved the other one - classy and relaxing. The winner was like the vomit room. Sorry - love the series but really?'

Rosin's colourful rooms - including wallpaper on the ceiling also won fans though, including one who penned: 'I’m so glad she won! Love Matt, but Rosin wins for me every time, she is amazing!'

Judge Michelle said Matt was a little too focused on panelling with his design

Scalloped design - including on the headboard in Rosin's bedroom - was very trendy, said designer Jonathan Adler

The designer, who began decorating her parents home and has an unashamed love of bright colours, said lifting the trophy 'really is a dream come true'. 

Meanwhile, a disappointed Matt told viewers: 'No regrets at all. I did me, showed what I could do, stick to my guns and you know it's got me this far. I'm happy.' 

Rosin will now get the chance to design a homeware collection with La Redoute.

Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr is available on BBC iPlayer.
