Interior design and styling, homewares, furniture, home appliances and the personalities behind them
Last night's kids' room reveals were more enjoyable than I expected. Much as I personally, as a mum, enjoy the fun of decorating a children's room, they don't always make the best TV. You can't really showcase the luxury, glam and gadgets you can with, say, a master bedroom. But I was pleasantly surprised with all the great ideas the contestants …

Last week, we introduced our new series with last year's Blockheads Julia and Sasha, following their new Melbourne reno. This week, Julia's talking about the phase before settlement, designing the house and locking in trades. We bought Little Willow in November last year. The Block had just wrapped and for some strange reason, we missed the …
Ah, what satisfying watching that was last night! Five fabulous bedrooms (some with en suites, some without, interestingly!). The judges said the quality of all the rooms was more like what they'd expect at end of the competition. And it was close with only 1.5 points between first and last place. And can we talk about the bedheads? So many utterly …
Photography by Lucas Boyd We recently checked out blogger Rebecca Lowrey Boyd's kitchen and loved it so much, we persuaded her to share all the details with us. You can check out more of Rebecca's writing at Wee Birdy. I never thought I would renovate our kitchen. When we bought our ‘70s modernist pole house on Sydney's upper North Shore three …
The modest façade of this Victorian cottage gives nothing away about what lies inside. Originally cramped and dingy, the house was given a new lease on life; turning it into a light-filled modern beauty while still beaming with original features. The challenge for Apparte Studio, the team behind the transformation, was to create a spacious …
Well I never, what a remarkable lot of room reveals we saw last night for week one! Impressed. Big time! You'd think there'd be at least one duff room, but I have to say, they all did really well. Although some, of course, did better than others. It was a tight race though, with only half a point between first and second place. Read on for all the …
A collaboration with Pottery Barn Kids As most of you know, we moved house a few months ago and shortly afterwards, headed to the UK for a month. So we decided it wasn't worth reassembling Seb's cot and that we would start his room from scratch as a "big boy room" with a single bed and try our luck. Now, who better to collaborate …
So, here we are with season 13 of The Block's first room reveals! To be honest, I wasn't loving any of them and thought the judges were very kind, that said, it is week 1 and they only had 48 hours, so we can't expect masterpieces. Yet! The stakes were high because depending on how well they did, the couples got to choose their preferred house …
Today, I'm delighted to introduce a new series with ex-Blockheads Julia and Sasha, who will be exclusively sharing their latest reno journey with Interiors Addict, warts and all! As you know, I was big fan of these two and their taste on the last season of The Block. I'm taking major inspo from their Block kitchen for my own! It just so …
