Get the look: Last night’s Block guest bedroom reveals

How impressive were last night’s guest bedroom reveals on The Block?! I actually really liked all the rooms and wouldn’t have liked to have had to pick the winner. But Kyal and Kara were the chosen couple and I did think their room was fantastic.

After slamming their water feature last week, the judges couldn’t believe they were seeing the same couple’s styling this week. Neale Whitaker said it felt clean and modern, in keeping with the loft environment and that the colour palette was perfectly restrained. Darren Palmer said the pair were at their best this week and that all the little things were done beautifully and that he was proud of their styling progress following his masterclass as they’d taken on board all his tips.

I think my own favourite this week was Chantelle and Steve’s room. It was certainly a strong week for those fans! I loved their brave parquetry wall feature, as did the judges. Neale said it was incredible and Darren said the room had real style to it. Shaynna loved the storage and the way the Art Deco features had been brought up to date. Their only real negative was about the antlers, which Neale called clichéd. I have to agree. I’m a bit over antlers!

I love rooms which are more than just a white box when you remove the furniture, yet still clean looking enough to work with different kinds of furniture. On that front, I thought these couples, and Alisa and Lysandra with their exposed brick, really delivered.

Now onto my favourite twins, Alisa and Lysandra. I loved their room too, and the fact they experimented with colour this week. The girls had the most mixed judges’ comments of everyone. Neale really loved their new design direction and their light sconces, while Shaynna Blaze — who the girls say judge them the harshest — said the look was too ‘in your face’ and would alienate some buyers.

Darren loved the lighting and the look but pointed out the position of the artwork wasn’t practical for sitting up in bed. And what did you think of that artwork (Portrait of Amy Winehouse After Klimt by Sue Quinn)? I loved it.

Last but not least, Brad and Dale impressed the judges by being in touch with their feminine side this week, although Neale didn’t like the colour palette and found it too primary and clichéd. Shaynna loved the storage but said the colour was too dark and the hanging rail was impractically high. Darren said the look was soft and beautiful.

Really interested in the wardrobe in Brad and Dales bathroom last night. I live on the Gold Coast would love to know where it was made and if there is a local showroom, thank you

I adore the twins room again. The art is stunning and the mix of blue, grey and exposed brick is my kind of perfect. I can’t watch the show, but I’m guessing it must be sponsored by a carpet company. I’d love to see a wooden floor in these room with a beautiful rug.

I find it interesting that Chantelle and Steve’s room was quite heavy with Adairs purchases – green cushions, b+w throw, tripod tables, the lamps I’m pretty sure, and the quilt cover looks like it was from there – but there is no mention of it on the block shop etc. I thought we saw him buy the deer head from there also? If not it is exactly the same as the Adairs one. I work for Adairs on store level in the interest of full disclosure.
It’s just weird.

Thanks for the comprehensive report Interiors Addict. Now if I ever miss reveal night( heaven forbid!) I feel I can catch up through these pages. Once again I loved elements from all rooms and say- “Vive le difference!)

I would love to know where Steve and Chantelle’s bedside tables came from for their bedroom. Could you please find out for me? I have looked everywhere.

Hi Rachel. From Adairs. I’ve added a link into the post but they’re only available in yelow online at the moment. Perhaps they have white in store if you give them a call.

Maybe this is a basic question but I would like to know where to get curtains and blind like in the boys bedroom, what sort if material was it and what colour was it?
Thanks for the awesome blog 🙂

Hi! Just wondering where Kyle and Kara get their linen from? I’m struggling to find a nice stylish new duvet (doona!) cover! Any point in the right direction would be great 🙂

I am loving the niche above the bed head and I am currently doing one in my own renovations and just trying to establish what height from the floor it should be and the overal height if your able to help me at all?
I originally got the idea from Brad & Lara’s room a few yrs ago but having trouble with dimensions! It’s to go above a king bed and it won’t have a bed head at all!
Thanks!!

I must be the only person that likes Kyal and Karas white chair. Any idea where the bought it from??

Hi, does anyone know where to buy the lowline armchair Kyal & Kara used in their living room? Thanks

I would like to know where brad and dale got their quilt cover used in the room with the bath. Thanks

Would really love to track down the gradient/ombre teale to white cushion on the bed in Brad & Dale’s bedroom pictured above. And the gorgeous geometric shaped timber candle holders with the teal/aqua detail on their dining table 🙂
