The Block 2022: Bedroom & Redo Reveal
- 18 Oct 2022
A chance to fix the room they like least, plus the final guest bedroom to complete their house interior? Welcome to redo Week!
For the contestants, this is a chance to finally wrap up their home and make sure everything matches, correcting the rushed decisions they made earlier.
And for the judges it’s time to see how much the contestants have been listening to their advice… if at all! And from complete make-overs to subtle tweaks, every combination is here for them to see.
Tom and Sarah-Jane
28 / 30 - Equal first place
With a Rattan bedhead and complementing Grafico wallpaper to reflect the style of House one’s original guest bedroom, a king-size bed and perferctly-placed cabinetry this final guest room immediately caught the judges hearts, with Darren declaring once again that Sarah-Jane should be styling rooms for a living.
Into the redo room, the lounge area and suddenly things seemed much cosier, Shaynna said.
New rug, chairs turned toward the fire, an extra couch and an updated entertainment unit (which thankfully tidies up the cables) all works with the huge space and finally shows, Neale says, even with the house’s massive size, it can still seem cosy.

Rachel and Ryan
28 / 30 - Equal first place
With a metallic-green tinge to the cabinetry, Grafico striped wallpaper, cornices, skirts and lamps all combine for contemporary country chic that’s a world away from their first guest room, the judges agreed.
But not any more, they agreed, when they revisited that first room, now Ryan and Rachel’s redo room, to find a new warmer colour on the feature wall, a new rug, a new bed and a new feel, Shaynna said, that married well into the home’s overall theme and the countryside in which it sits.
“They’ve really hit their stride!” Shaynna said, pointing out the colours of the land outside were now reflected inside as well, adding up to a cohesive feel throughout.
Rachel and Ryan come in equal first with good friends Tom and Sarah-Jane.

Rachel's contemporary take on country is starting to come together and we LOVE it! If you need me Ill be over here adding that swivel chair to my cart!
This room is simply perfect, we love the subtle striped linen grafico wall paper alongside that Kinsman Cabinetry, the timber handles.... yes please!
When the judges revisited that first bedroom, now Ryan and Rachel’s redo room, to find a new warmer colour on the feature wall, a new rug, a new bed matching bedside tables and a new feel, Shaynna said, that married well into the home’s overall theme and the countryside in which it sits.
This redo room is taking our breath away and we love the addition of that Jen Shewring artwork!!!!

Dylan and Jenny
27.5 / 30 - Third place
Fluted wall panels and waffle bed throws combine for “texture on texture” Shaynna said, working well with the cabinetry (especially the handles), artwork, bedside table and lamp to showcase the palette and feel of the new room.
Simple, Neale, said, but consistent with the rest of the house.
Into the re-do living and dining room and that sense of cohesion continued with a completely changed space that now sits well with the home.
New sconces, the chandelier replaced by a fan, a fresh coat of paint over the Venetian plaster and styling changes have given the space a contemporary feel without sacrificing the country nods.
“Next level,” Neale summed up, and now right for their home.

The artwork 'Dancing Queen' by Catherine Fitzgerald ties in the colours of the room so beautifully.
This redo is our favourite yet! Take a look to see what it looked like before! The look is complete with beautiful Globewest linen armchair and the coffee table and ottoman are a match made in heaven!
“Next level,” Neale summed up, and now right for their home.

Omar and Oz
25 / 30 - Fourth Place
With the spare aesthetic of a Japanese ski lodge, Neale felt right at home in Omar and Oz’s final guest room, with Darren pointing out the discrete pelmet lighting and LED strips all combine to bring modern touches without sacrificing the country feel.
As for the re-do room, their master bedroom, all judges agreed the change was spectacular, with the new king-size bed a natural fit now the cluttered reading nook had gone and pendant and bedside lamps combining for a warmer, cosier feel.
There were issues with the fretwork blocking access to some of the storage, but over all a huge improvement on what had been there before.
Omar and Oz always bringing the smiles to site!
Beautiful artwork alongside the bed, which has an extra storage feature at the foot of the bed, chest of drawers and bedside tables from Forty Winks are a perfect combination.
It is hard not to love the colour palette the boys have chosen for this room. Shop the Boys room at The Block Shop here.
The storage options in this room are endless.
The boys not only completed their allocated redo room but also took on last week's room aswell!

Ankur and Sharon
23.5 / 30 - Fifth place
A “nice” room suitable for a ten-year-old, Darren said as he took in Sharon and Ankur’s pink-themed guest room… but then why add cocktail glasses, Neale asked? He did, however, love the wardrobes, the cornice and ceiling rose, the pelmet and curtain, all working well to give the room great bones, it was just the styling that left him confused.
Into the redo room – the Living and Dining area - and all confusion left, with the added mirror, moved table, dark sheers and refinished paintwork leaving the judges happy that the space had definitely been saved.
There were still some touches that could be tweaked, they said, but overall, it’s a massive improvement.

The Bambury Coverlet is a sweet addition to a girls bedroom, and we LOVE the chairs by Cachet Furniture.
