Tonight on Dream Home: NSW husband and wife team Lara and Peter delivered a knock-out ensuite bathroom and nursery – scoring 28.5 out of 30 from judges Simon Cohen, Rosie Morley and Lana Taylor and closing the gap with sisters Taeler and Elle who are currently sitting on the top of the leaderboard.
At Rhys and Liam’s home in Deception Bay, the judges loved Hannah and Jonny’s transformation of the façade. Lana said it was bang-on the brief. Simon agreed, noting the front-yard swing added a playful touch. They also loved the couple’s downstairs tradie bathroom, praising the planning and layout.
In contrast, the judges were underwhelmed with Jacinta and Jordan’s entry foyer, criticising the cluttered styling and scale, saying it was a room of missed opportunities.
The couple’s master bedroom and walk-in wardrobe didn’t fare much better. All judges were horrified to see Jacinta and Jordan had used fake rattan to finish their wardrobe. Lana also labelled the overall tones of the space as bland.
Brad and Mel nailed the brief with their nursery for Liam’s daughter, Remi. Simon said it was super fun, while Lana said their styling was beautiful and age appropriate.
After struggling to deliver a winning bathroom in previous rounds, Brad and Mel finally achieved redemption. The judges praised their space for its modern, classy finishes and functionality.
At Hannah and Jonny’s house in Coorparoo, the judges were blown away by Rhys and Liam’s Palm Springs-inspired façade. Simon said it was so good that it belonged in a magazine, while Lana loved the focal point of the colourful doors.
The brothers’ glamour bathroom was also a hit, with the judges loving the controversial chequerboard tiles and use of rattan on the cupboard door.
Taeler and Elle’s entrance foyer was applauded for its balance of hard finishes and soft greenery, but they said the sisters had overlooked the inclusion of practical storage.
Taeler and Elle also wowed the judges with their hotel-like master bedroom and walk-in robe. Lana loved the space’s colour, texture and curves but questioned the practicality of the bed nook.
After struggling with their ensuite bathroom, Lara and Peter were thrilled to hear the judges describe the space as beautiful and elegant with a spacious layout.
The couple also hit the mark with their nursery for Hannah and Jonny’s twins, Goldie and Theo. Rosie was overwhelmed by the beauty of the space, and Simon said it was cool.
