Get the look: All the details from Sunday’s Block kitchens

September 19, 2017 2 Comments

FacebookPinEmailTweet

Kitchen week is always one of the biggest weeks on The Block… I’m sure I wasn’t the only one oohing and ahhing while watching Sunday night’s reveal! With each kitchen boasting new metallic and textured finishes and of course enviable appliances, we thought it’d be the perfect time to give you all the details so you can get the Block look at home.

Josh and Elyse

Scoring a perfect 30/30, Josh and Elyse’s kitchen was a contemporary take on a traditional Hamptons style kitchen. In a risky move – that paid off – their island bench was the only one oriented to face the garden rather than the living area, enhancing the feel of indoor-outdoor living. Another winning feature was their enormous hidden butler’s pantry, which the judges loved; Neale saying it was “large enough for an army of butlers!”

Details:

  • Freedom Kitchens cabinetry in Sierra Cinder and White profiled doors
  • Caesarstone benchtop in Noble Grey (Jen has chosen this for her own kitchen) with waterfall ends
  • Appliances by Bosch – freestanding stainless steel fridge, 900mm gas cooktop, integrated coffee machine and warming drawer

Jason and Sarah

Also gaining top scores were Jason and Sarah, who created a contemporary kitchen featuring new metallic and concrete finishes. I particularly loved their integrated fridge hidden by platinum cabinetry, as well as the built in shelf behind the cooktop. In the words of Neale: “Genius!”

Details:

  • Freedom Kitchens new metallic cabinetry in Titan, plus Super Matt Black and Blackened Elm
  • Caesarstone benchtop and splashback in Statuario Maximus and new Rugged Concrete
  • Accessories by Hettich
  • Appliances by Bosch –Pyrolytic Oven with added steam and warming drawer

Ronnie and Georgia

Coming in third were Ronnie and Georgia with their luxurious industrial style kitchen. Darren was impressed with their use of black, saying it was the cut through a grey kitchen needed. Having won an appliance upgrade to NEFF earlier in the show, the couple had the most technologically advanced kitchen in the competition.

Details:

  • Freedom Kitchens cabinetry in new Beton (textured light concrete) and Matt Black
  • New Caesarstone Rugged Concrete in kitchen and pantry
  • Appliances by NEFF – new induction cooktop with downdraft ventilation and Pyrolytic full steam slide and hide oven, integrated coffee machine, combi microwave

Sticks and Wombat

True to style, Sticks and Wombat produced an edgy kitchen with organic tones and raw textures. They chose a concrete look for their ceiling-to-floor cabinetry, which blended seamlessly with their self-made stone-box over the rangehood. I loved their dining table bench made from a high quality laminate, a look Neale labelled as: “Raw luxury”.

Details:

  • Freedom Kitchen textured dark concrete finish in new Valetta
  • Dining bench in new Tobacco Halifax Oak – looks and feels like real wood
  • New Caesarstone benchtop range in New White and Turbine Grey
  • Appliances from Bosch – fully integrated bottom mount fridge/freezer and black glass flame select gas cooktop

Hannah and Clint

Hannah and Clint’s kitchen made a statement with its contemporary tones and sophisticated use of materials. I was a fan of their island bench, featuring a wine fridge, open display shelving and an integrated Bluetooth sound system. The perfect entertainer’s kitchen.

Details:

  • Freedom Kitchens cabinetry in Charcoal Riven and Pewter with LED lighting
  • Caesarstone benchtop in Calacutta Nuvo
  • Appliances by Bosch – Induction cooktop and integrated fridge and coffee machine

One half of popular parenting podcast @wedonthavet One half of popular parenting podcast @wedonthavetimeforthis, turns out former Neighbours actor @gemma_peanut is even more multi-talented than we thought! Will you check out the joyful and colourful reno of her holiday home (and airbnb) @yo_caba_caba?!

Head over to the blog via link in bio to read all about why she went bold and full of pattern in this project, which is a stark contrast to her zen and neutral Northern Beaches abode.

There's also plenty of details about where things are from etc.

"I’m not an interior designer so I just chose what I liked and followed my gut. Ultimately this home has been an opportunity to explore my alter ego – it allowed me to do things that I wouldn’t normally do.”

Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial family category and they're a special gift. So ends three weeks with @danisteve81 who left her husband and son in the UK (I'm forever grateful they lent her to me!) to come and cheer me up and help me in the most practical ways after I spent Christmas and New Year in hospital. There were tears and I miss her so much already but how amazing to have had all that time together as adults. Such a rare treat and would never have happened without having been through something so challenging. Silver linings and all that. So many other friends have also been incredibly thoughtful and kind. There aren't many times I'd say this without cringing but I am 100% blessed!

I still cannot believe we have been friends since we were 12! 12! Are you still close with your childhood besties?
The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_ho The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_house is a work of art and while almost every surface was updated, the decision to keep the original slate floor was genius if you ask us. 

Owner @clarehillier__ says: "With its purple, pink, red and brown tones, the slate was the starting point for our interior palette."

Come and check out the before and afters via link in bio now and read the reno story. It's a real beauty.

And you can book it for your next holiday too!

Hello friends! Just thought I'd say hi. Two weeks Hello friends! Just thought I'd say hi. Two weeks since leaving hospital and I'm doing much better than I expected to be at this early stage. A long recovery road ahead but making progress in how much I can move my arm and although I drag myself through some days non-stop yawning, others I can go for a little walk or out for lunch before collapsing on the couch! I can now tie my own hair back and put on a real bra which is very exciting 🤣 Having my bestie here to help us with the boys, drive me places and just be brilliant positive company is the best thing I could have asked for not to mention the many Dinner Ladies vouchers from friends! Thanks for all your kind messages, cards, flowers, gifts and offers of help ❤️
I definitely feel like a statistic now but hoping I definitely feel like a statistic now but hoping to raise some awareness off the back of my misfortune (and also very lucky escape).

@newsouthwaleshealth have just put out this warning about a rise in serious bacterial infections. iGAS (invasive group A streptococcus) is what caused my necrotising fasciitis and sepsis.

Apparently there's similar happening in VIC too.

It's extremely rare but very serious nonetheless so please have a read and be aware of symptoms. I've linked to the article from a button via my link in bio.

While new technologies continue to shape the inter While new technologies continue to shape the interior design scene, one that has been getting a fair bit of traction of late is marble-look porcelain. A cheaper alternative to natural stone, the latest printed porcelain tile technology makes it difficult to distinguish from the real thing.

Founded by husband and wife duo Anton and Rita Bourtsev, Sydney’s @kaolintiles has a unique offering in this space with over 100 different marble-look tile designs in small and large formats.
