How to decide on a kitchen layout
Britt and Taz’s winning pair of childrens rooms combined charm and whimsy with a nod to Daylesford.
WA police officers and parents Britt and Taz created a winning couple of rooms; one designed to suit a teen girl and the other targeted at two younger boys.
The standout feature was a 3D curved feature wall in the first room, inspired by the rolling hills of Daylesford and incorporating the bedhead. The couple chose a warm colour palette, using a terracotta tone as the base. “Yum, I love that a lot,” said Darren Palmer as soon as he entered the room. “It’s exactly the right tone and colour. It’s beautifully done.”
The second room was designed for two younger boys, with Britt and Taz opting for twin beds anchored by a checked wallpaper feature wall and a small curved desk. The bedhead was also wallpaper in a complementary tone. With carpet on both floors, the rooms exuded a soft, comfortable feel.
“These guys have got class,” said Shaynna approvingly. “It’s beautiful”.
As part of their win, Britt and Taz secured $175,000 worth of high-end appliances for their kitchen and laundry, which will no doubt make a difference to those rooms later in the series. It was a big week on The Block for the couple, who also won Scotty Cam’s award for effort, securing five of the sought-after pot plants from the Bunnings Garden Shed.
Design tip
Don’t be afraid to layer rugs on top of carpet, especially in high-traffic areas such as kids rooms. Choose a neutral carpet and add some hard-wearing fun rugs over the top for extra hardiness.
What colour paint did they use?
The colours that Britt and Taz used in their kids bedrooms are Tiger White, Hot Jam and Mollusk Shell by British Paints.
