The's Block's "most beautiful" master bedroom revealed

The Master Bedroom Reveal for The Block 2023 season showcased various approaches to creating a luxurious and functional private sanctuary. Each competing couple presented their interpretation of a high-end master suite, which included spacious rooms, walk-in wardrobes, relaxation areas, reading nooks, and make-up stations. Steph and Gian secured first place with 29 points. Their master wing featured a large walk-in wardrobe and dressing area, highlighted by a marble-topped island and Hafele accessories, offering extensive storage. The bedroom itself was praised for its lighting plan, neutral palette, layout, and styling. The only critique was the size of the bedside tables, which were deemed not large enough. Kristy and Brett earned second place with 27.5 points. Their bedroom was described as “simpler and more impactful,” featuring a warm color palette, Venetian Plaster wall finish, a “sensational” bedhead, and a rug. The layout was considered excellent, with a comfortable atmosphere, and the inclusion of skylights and a fireplace added to the appeal. Similar to Steph and Gian's room, the bedside tables were noted as being too small. Leah and Ash finished in third place with 23.5 points. Their master suite was recognized for its scalloped ceiling and a curved bench seat at the window, complemented by floor-to-ceiling sheers and Palm-Springs inspired artwork. Despite the unique aesthetic and consistent color palette, the judges felt some styling choices were eclectic without purpose, and basic design elements like adequate shoe storage were missing. The overall plan could have better utilized the stunning ceiling and natural light. Eliza and Liberty came in fourth with 22.5 points. Their room presented a cozy and beautiful space with double-glazed Aluplast windows and a fireplace. However, judges observed incomplete paintwork, sparse styling, and art placement that favored one side of the room. While the layout, especially within the Kinsman wardrobes, and color scheme were appropriate, the overall impression suggested the pair might have been overwhelmed, leading to some clashing choices. Kyle and Leslie placed fifth with 21 points. Their Master Bedroom maintained a consistent aesthetic and displayed excellent craftsmanship. However, practicality concerns were raised regarding the harsh texture in the recessed bedhead arch, overhead LED downlights, and artwork. The absence of a dedicated make-up and dressing station was identified as a missed opportunity, leading to the judges' conclusion that style was prioritized over function. They suggested that future designs should focus more on liveability rather than purely aesthetic appeal. #TheBlock #RoomReveal #MasterBedroom #HomeDesign #InteriorStyling #HomeDecor #WardrobeDesign #LightingPlan #NeutralPalette

The Block 2018 master bedroom and walk-in wardrobe reveals faced initial challenges with a slow start to the week, creating tension among contestants, especially Hayden and Sara, who were reconsidering their participation due to previous harsh criticism. Despite the slow beginning, all teams raced to complete their luxurious retreats, prompting Homes To Love to invite former Block winners Alisa and Lysandra to provide their expert opinions on each room. Kerrie and Spence's Apartment 1 master bedroom, despite their previous success with the ensuite, was described as somewhat uninspired. While the bedhead was aesthetically pleasing and the bed well-styled, the overall impression lacked the desired luxury. Judges expressed disappointment, expecting more 'va-va-voom' from a luxury apartment's master bedroom. The decision to expand the walk-in wardrobe by reducing the ensuite size was noted, offering ample storage but ultimately not elevating the room's overall impact. Alisa and Lysandra appreciated the bedhead and velvet linen but found the room lacked a 'wow factor' and disagreed with the pendant light's placement, feeling it added little aesthetically. Their score for Kerrie and Spence was 24/30. Courtney and Hans' Apartment 2 featured a remarkably large master bedroom, comparable to a one-bedroom apartment, complete with a king-sized bed and a sitting area. However, the expansive space was not utilized effectively. Judges felt the room was a 'great waste of space,' lacking the grandiose elements expected, such as a couch, ottoman, large rug, or floor-to-ceiling mirrors. Courtney's indecisiveness regarding artwork led to a lack of direction and confidence in making bold design choices. Alisa and Lysandra observed an improvement in Courtney and Hans's overall design compared to their previous reveals, particularly liking the LED strip lighting behind the curtains and the soft, luxurious walk-in wardrobe. However, they found the color palette unappealing and noted a lack of cohesion and warmth, with mismatched elements. Courtney and Hans received a score of 22/30. Jess and Norm's Penthouse Apartment 4 master bedroom presented a cheerful blue and yellow palette, which some judges found overwhelming. Judge Neale likened it to a Gold Class cinema suite, disapproving of the prominent TV. Shaynna believed their guest bedroom had been more fitting for a master, as this master suite, despite a beautifully styled bed, lacked the required sense of luxury for a penthouse. Alisa and Lysandra praised the wall sconces and the walk-in wardrobe's color palette. Yet, they considered the room's size more suitable for a third bedroom and found the yellow bed linen too bright and stimulating for a master bedroom, agreeing with the judges about the niches in the TV wall. Their score for Jess and Norm was 22.5/30. Bianca and Carla's Penthouse Apartment 5 received commendation for their successful use of a neutral palette, incorporating diverse tones and textures, and their signature bedside tables were noted. Despite these positive aspects, the room was criticized for its craftsmanship, specifically an uneven timber-paneled feature wall and a missing air-con vent, which the team chose not to rectify. The judges described the room as 'style over substance,' raising concerns about functionality and an overly masculine feel. Alisa and Lysandra appreciated the herringbone flooring and custom timber cabinet in the TV wall but felt the room did not meet the standards for a master bedroom, especially finding the bedhead feature wall unsophisticated for such a space. Bianca and Carla also scored 22.5/30. Hayden and Sara's Apartment 3 initially faced uncertainty regarding their continuation in the competition due to prior criticism. After a crucial meeting with Shaynna Blaze and implementing her design advice, Hayden's craftsmanship and Sara's balanced styling resulted in an elegant and dreamy master bedroom. Both Shaynna and the other judges recognized their significant improvement and successful execution of the design brief. Alisa and Lysandra deemed Hayden and Sara's master bedroom the clear winner, highlighting its luxurious, balanced, and sophisticated ambiance, particularly appreciating the dark color palette. Their only critique was the 'pedestrian' artwork, which lacked the sophistication of the rest of the room. Hayden and Sara emerged as winners for the week with a score of 26.5/30. They also discussed their continued commitment to an Art Deco style for their property. #TheBlock #MasterBedroom #RoomReveals #HomeDesign #InteriorDecor #DesignCritique #WalkInWardrobe #LuxuryHome #AlisaAndLysandra

The Block 2022 competition featured master bedroom and walk-in wardrobe reveals, culminating in various outcomes for the five participating houses. Each team faced challenges including renovation timelines, building issues, and painting dilemmas, all while vying for a $50,000 Vintec ESPACE walk-in wine cellar and a mature tree. The judging panel, consisting of Shaynna, Neale, and Darren, provided feedback ranging from high praise to significant critiques across the different designs. Tom and Sarah-Jane of House 1 secured the win with a score of 28 ½, spending $21,992. Their master suite, characterized by a green and serene aesthetic, received unanimous acclaim. The judges highlighted the cozy wood-burning fireplace, the "new rural" style, and strategic budgeting decisions such as chair-rail wainscoting that allowed the large ceiling rose and heritage cornicing to stand out. The combination of rattan bedhead, inlayed bedsides, corduroy cushions, and a check bedspread was also noted as a winning element. The walk-in wardrobe, though lacking cabinet doors, was deemed well-styled and emotionally appealing to potential buyers due to its presentation. Rachel and Ryan from House 2 achieved a score of 27 ½, with a spend of $21,235. Their master bedroom was praised for its warm, calming atmosphere, a significant improvement from previous criticisms regarding cold styling. The stacked stone fireplace was a standout feature. Despite minor imperfections, such as a smaller-than-ideal rug, the room's overall vibe, natural textures, and the beautiful sliding barn door leading to the walk-in robe were well-received. The walk-in robe, described as "palatial," offered generous storage and further enhanced the country contemporary feel, resonating strongly with the judges. Ankur and Sharon of House 3 scored 28, having spent $37,213. Their master wing showcased an eclectic and theatrical "Francophile" style, incorporating antique furniture and a repurposed original front door. The grandeur, scale, furniture choices, ceiling height, and a Marie Antoinette portrait contributed to an opulent ambiance. However, the judges noted some inconsistencies, such as Deco-style lighting that clashed with the overall theme and concerns about budget management, specifically an unnecessary padded bedhead. The walk-in robe, with its central island and attractive color palette, was highly admired for its glamour and generous space, leading to an overall positive, if not flawless, evaluation. Dylan and Jenny of House 4 scored 25 ½, spending $30,358. Their master suite was accessed through a large walk-in robe, which was initially unexpected but impressed with its high-end glamour and quality. The color palette and a lavish chandelier were also commended. However, the master bedroom itself fell short of expectations. While initially described as "luxe deco" and adhering to a country aesthetic, closer inspection revealed flaws, particularly with an unfinished window seat. The judges felt the bedroom lacked the "oomph" and finesse seen in the walk-in robe and previous guest bedroom, suggesting a rushed execution. Omar and Oz from House 5 received the lowest score of 22 ½, with a spend of $20,048. Their master bedroom was found to be "visually overwhelming," with the judges noting a lack of clear focal points. The inclusion of a study and reading nook, intended as a key feature, was criticized for making the room feel too small and for its cluttered, cheaply styled appearance. Despite some positive aspects like repurposed original fretwork, chunky carpet, and ceiling treatment, the room did not meet the high expectations set by their previous double-bathroom win. The walk-in wardrobe also failed to impress, primarily due to a large ottoman that hindered space and insufficient storage, raising concerns about its appeal to potential buyers. #TheBlock2022 #MasterBedroom #WalkInWardrobe #HomeRenovation #InteriorDesign #HomeDecor #RenovationCompetition #LuxuryHomes #AustralianDesign

This article provides a detailed review of the main bedroom room reveals from Week 5 of The Block 2024, highlighting the designs, styling choices, and judges' feedback for each of the five competing couples. The competition saw new couple Maddy and Charlotte settling in, with all teams facing budget constraints while aiming to impress with their 'main bedrooms'. Courtney and Grant secured first place with their 'Moditerranean' main bedroom. The judges, particularly Marty, praised it as the "most marketable room" of The Block 2024, citing its arched ceiling, hidden HomePro sheers, and bullnose plaster accents. The styling, featuring artwork, a Globe West Occasional chair, Kolbi Luna Moon side table, and Create Estate Fern bed, was highly regarded by Shaynna. The Kinsman wardrobe, with its shelving, stone, and leather-textured cabinetry, also received commendation for its luxury and market appeal. Kristian and Mimi tied for first place with a 'Coastal Holiday' themed room. Their design incorporated a raked ceiling with HomePro sheers, a Wave bedhead, Foundation bedbase, Dot ottoman from Steph and Gian’s new Japandi Estate collection, and Artist Lane artworks, including the Cape Woolamai Phillip Island piece. While the overall room was well-received, some imperfections were noted, such as unfinished paintwork, mismatched door handles, and a potentially jarring LED lighting choice near the Porta Timber feature. Despite these minor flaws, the judges considered it a strong contender. The Kinsman wardrobe, featuring Budino Walnut joinery, Hafele upgrades, drop-down hangers, leather boxes, and trouser and shoe racks, was deemed "luxury upon luxury" by Darren. Kylie and Brad achieved third place with a "classy and luxe" main bedroom that maintained Kylie’s signature dark and moody aesthetic. Marty admired its personality, and Shaynna lauded the Shou Sugi Ban feature wall with uplighting, burgundy accents, metallic Grafico ceiling, and Globe West furniture pieces including the Arthur console, Wyatt Milan bedside, and Bonnie Occasional chair. The room's functionality, including a Mitsubishi split-system, and adherence to feng shui principles were also praised. The wardrobe continued the luxurious theme with another Grafico ceiling and wall, a Wild Yarn Marley rug, and complementary panelling. The only critique was from Shaynna regarding the styling of ripped jean shorts, suggesting a more upscale choice would have been appropriate. Darren described the room as "like walking into a jewellery box." Maddy and Charlotte, the new couple, secured fourth place with an elevated neutral palette and floor-to-ceiling crushed linen sheers, moving away from the previous occupant's "Grandma Chic" style. Judges appreciated the Velux skylight and Hardie Groove feature wall, along with subtle decorative elements like the Bordeaux Candle and T. House Zoi bowl. While a good start, Shaynna suggested larger furniture, such as the Kave Home Luisa armchair and bedsides, would have enhanced the space. The Kinsman wardrobe was a hit, with Darren commending its on-trend colours and well-executed fittings. The judges acknowledged the challenges faced by the couple, given that three teams had worked on the room, and believed they were progressing in the right direction. Ricky and Haydn finished in fifth place. Their room initially impressed with Grafico wallpaper featuring custom palm trees, a custom ceiling and panelling, Bohteak Bora Bora lamps, and a single teak Branch Mirror. However, the unfinished state of the room became a significant point of concern. Marty questioned if the effort expended on the ceiling led to a lack of time for completion. Although the Kinsman walk-in wardrobe was complete and praised for its scalloped door profile and Brown Bronze handles, judges raised questions about carpeting the wardrobe area when the bedroom had floorboards and the placement of the door. Darren summarized their effort as an "unfinished symphony." #TheBlock2024 #RoomReveal #MainBedroom #HomeDesign #InteriorStyling #CoastalHolidayDesign #ModiterraneanStyle #LuxuryInteriors #RenovationCompetition

The third week of "The Block" 2022 saw contestants tackle their master ensuite bathrooms, presenting a series of challenges and triumphs for the teams. Despite significant setbacks, all teams successfully completed their rooms by the deadline. Tom and Sarah-Jane, from House One, presented a master ensuite that impressed judges Darren, Shaynna, and Neale with its "timeless" feel, achieved through thoughtful tile choices and a cohesive color palette. Darren was particularly impressed, noting the "calmness" of the space. However, Shaynna criticized the placement of the wall sconces, finding them too high. The recurring issue of face-to-face storage was also raised, though the couple maintained that their cupboard storage would be sufficient for potential buyers, a point Neale acknowledged. Rachel and Ryan from House Two faced mixed reviews for their master ensuite. Darren praised the room, highlighting the warm floor tiles and the double showerhead. Conversely, Neale found the room to be a "sea of grey," lacking personality and feeling "downbeat," a sentiment echoed by Shaynna regarding the wall tiles. All judges agreed the choice of wall tile was a mistake. Shaynna emphasized the need for more traditional elements in their designs, warning that a continued lack of such would result in lost points. Neale further criticized the absence of charm and personality, calling it a "wicked waste," despite acknowledging that the bathroom technically met all requirements. The judges advised the couple to inject more "pizazz" into their designs. Ankur and Sharon of House Three demonstrated progress in balancing contemporary and traditional styles. The judges appreciated the room's personality, a contrast to House Two's lack of character. However, they felt there was "too much character," indicating an over-styling issue. Neale disliked the black tapware, suggesting brass would have lightened the space, while Shaynna found certain "theatrical" details problematic, specifically a double-sided fireplace that allowed a view of the toilet from the master bedroom. Despite these criticisms, the judges acknowledged the couple's improvement and advised them to edit their designs, removing one or two theatrical elements to achieve a more refined look. Dylan and Jenny from House Four, after a challenging week, delivered a "mostly" completed master ensuite. The judges commended the "really huge" size of the space and its sense of luxury. Neale highlighted the "understated elegance" and "simple, simple styling" that gave the room a homely feel, while Darren praised the thoughtful design of each wall. Shaynna, however, critiqued the bathtub placement, suggesting it should have been oriented more centrally to enhance the luxurious feel. Darren also noted issues with corking and grouting, describing them as "messy," but overall, the judges were impressed with the couple's design choices. Omar and Oz in House Five overcame personal challenges to create a master ensuite that captivated the judges. They were hailed as "bathroom kings" due to their innovative design, particularly the walk-through shower. Neale praised the ingenious and unexpected layout, comparing it to their earlier successful bathroom reveal. Darren admired the bathtub, which offered excellent views from both seating positions. The judges were particularly impressed that, despite the room not being as large as others, it was exceptionally well-executed, with Darren noting the clever allocation of space for the shower and bathtub, creating a sense of grandeur and revolutionary layout. Ultimately, Omar and Oz secured the win for the week, earning $10,000 in prize money, marking their second bathroom reveal victory. #TheBlock #MasterEnsuite #BathroomDesign #HomeRenovation #RealityTV #InteriorDesign #HouseReveal #HomeDecor #DesignCritique

The Block 2021 competition is at its halfway point, with teams focusing on guest bedroom designs and redoing previously judged spaces. This week's tasks included creating well-designed, well-executed rooms, with few building defects reported. Some teams opted for dedicated kids' bedrooms, while others aimed for more flexible design possibilities. A team challenge involved salvaging materials from a boat junkyard to create an item for their rooms. Kirsty and Jesse won this challenge with a rustic stool, earning a $10,000 prize. Controversy arose when teams were allowed to modify their salvaged creations for their bedrooms, leading to disagreements, particularly between Georgia and Tanya. Ronnie and Georgia presented a sophisticated guest bedroom featuring natural light, layered textures, and a subtle pattern mix. Judges praised their striped wallpaper, color palette of soft pink, olive green, and crisp white, and the integrated timber hanging bookshelf. Shaynna awarded them a perfect 10 for the room, noting the improved plastering. For their redo, Ronnie and Georgia enlarged their master walk-in robe by 50%, transforming it into an "amazing room" that would have scored a perfect 30/30 if presented initially. They spent $24,680 and achieved a winning score of 29. Mitch and Mark revamped their guest bedroom, addressing initial feedback of it being bland and claustrophobic. They swapped a queen bed for a double, removed a pendant light to enhance space, and updated the styling with new artwork and striking gold pineapple-based lamps. Shaynna appreciated the "simple and joyful" palette. They also created a gender-neutral jungle-themed kids' bedroom with bunk beds, a play station, and green built-in wardrobe doors. The judges found it "whimsical, playful and fun," though some noted minor issues with finishes. They spent $22,461 and scored 28. Tanya and Vito designed a kids' bedroom with terrazzo wallpaper, oversized bunk beds, a desk, and built-in cabinetry. Their modified challenge piece fit next to the loft bed, receiving judicial approval. However, Shaynna suggested softening the room's sharp edges with a plush chair or rug. After struggling with their mid-century modern style in previous weeks, Shelley Craft took Tanya and Vito to visit Jimmy and Tam's Palm Springs-inspired home from The Block 2020. Inspired by this, Tanya and Vito redid their master ensuite, replacing busy tiling and a vintage light fitting with white tiles and a subtle black wire pendant. Judges were pleased, noting the lighter, more contemporary look. They spent $15,220 and scored 27. Luke and Josh faced challenges, including a crushing defeat and a building code violation for their outdoor bathroom, which required removing external walls. For their guest bedroom, designed for a teenage girl, they installed a bay window with built-in cabinets and an upholstered seat. An asymmetric feature wall of contoured paneling was placed behind the bedhead, and their challenge-made bedside tables were painted black. Shaynna criticized the asymmetric paneling and lack of design ingenuity. The judges also expressed concern about Luke and Josh's budget constraints and styling choices, with Darren suggesting a warmer palette and Neale highlighting their failure to appeal to the target buyer. Their redo of the first bathroom, which was previously deemed "incredibly dated," involved building a timber screen between the vanity and toilet, a change that failed to impress the judges. They spent $17,248 and received a score of 20. Kirsty and Jesse, managing the largest house, presented two bedrooms and worked on their redo room. Their kids' bedroom featured a warm palette with floral wallpaper, dusty pinks, and white linen, complemented by a banquette seat under a plantation-shuttered window and built-in cabinets. Judges praised their lighting choices and Hamptons-style approach, suggesting shelving instead of cupboards. For their redo, Kirsty and Jesse redecorated their week one guest bedroom with a new paint color, updated lamps, and bedside tables. Darren noted the significant improvement, especially with their propeller stool from the challenge. Neale concluded that the room was now "selling the dream." They spent $19,855 and achieved a score of 29.5. The competition progresses to kitchens next week, with some teams adapting to feedback while others maintain their design vision. #TheBlock2021 #GuestBedroom #BedroomDesign #HomeRenovation #InteriorDesign #HomeDecor #KidsRoom #BathroomRedo #DesignChallenge

This article provides a detailed review of the main bedroom reveals from Week 4 of 'The Block 2025' competition, offering insights into the design choices, styling, and judges' feedback for each of the five competing couples. The article systematically presents each couple's room, highlighting both their successes and areas for improvement, based on the judges' critiques. It functions as a summary and analysis of the week's interior design challenges. Britt & Taz secured first place with their master bedroom, which was praised for its elevated and sophisticated aesthetic. The judges, including Marty, lauded the neutral palette accented with gold, describing it as "rich, but not snobby." Key design elements included a well-styled bedhead, Graficoed light switches, an Albany Antique Bench, and two artworks by Bronwyn Barton. A Rug Addiction Clooney rug was also noted for its harmonious integration. The walk-in wardrobe received high commendation for its ideal layout and practical additions like a Hettich fingerprint safe, earning the room the label "Goldilocks." The only minor criticism was directed at the lighting plan. Emma & Ben achieved second place with a main bedroom characterized by its generous size, likened to a luxurious hotel suite. Shaynna was particularly impressed by the rich burgundy and oak brown color scheme, the Stoke holographic fireplace, and the variety of textures, including carpet, rugs, curved chairs, and circular ottomans. The Block Shop “Fossil Face” artworks, a Cooper & Co Luna mirror, and a Jett Occasional Chair were highlighted as stunning styling choices. The walk-in island was noted for its impressive size, comparable to a kitchen island, symbolizing sheer luxury. Darren appreciated the oak wardrobes and their chocolate interiors. Despite the overall positive reception, the low-hanging light was singled out as a design flaw by Marty, preventing a perfect score. Robby & Mat's main bedroom secured third place, distinguished by its expansive walk-in wardrobe, large Velux skylight, and a striking textured feature wall. Darren was impressed by the meticulous attention to detail, evident in the four-poster bed and bedsides from Timberwolf, a comfortable sitting area with a Svend Mocha rug, and Bromley artworks. The inclusion of natural products, such as the Al.ive Body Oil set, added to the room's appeal. However, the judges felt there were too many Bromley artworks and that the room lacked a fireplace or an island in the wardrobe, indicating missed opportunities for maximizing the space's potential. Sonny & Alicia's main bedroom, which placed fourth, was described as embracing and gallery-like. The entry featured artworks by Michelle Keighley, Natalie Uhrik, and Kylie Daniel, leading into a space with custom-designed wallpaper by Alicia and luxurious linens. The complementary bedhead, shimmering velvet curtains, and timber veneer walls were all deemed successful design elements. The Rug Addiction Moorland Fig Rug from The Darren Palmer collection was also noted. However, the air conditioner and corner plants were criticized for creating a "corporate" feel. Darren suggested the inclusion of a lounge or chair to better utilize the extra space. While the wardrobe's color choices were praised, Shaynna questioned the placement of the make-up table in a dark corner, and Marty pointed out the absence of additional drawers. Han & Can's main bedroom finished in fifth place. Their design incorporated bold colors inspired by their Bromley and Karen Goddard artworks, aiming for a significant impact. However, the judges found the bright blue feature wall overwhelming and the pendant lights unsuitable for the space. Despite these issues, the judges believed the problems were easily rectifiable. The Martini Furniture bedhead was considered a strong anchor for the room, and the brown and pink Milly cushions were deemed ideal for the wall. Suggestions for improvement included repositioning certain items while retaining the Cooper & Co Squiggly floor lamp, backlit mirror, and retro Lucy and Hartley vases. The careful use of space within the Freedom wardrobes was a positive aspect, but overall, the room required further refinement to achieve a winning standard. #TheBlock2025 #MainBedroomReveal #HomeDesign #InteriorStyling #RoomCritique #LuxuryInteriors #BedroomDesign #WalkInWardrobe #ArtInstallation

The author shares the detailed process and inspiration behind designing her son Major's bedroom in their new home. This project was particularly enjoyable for her due to Major’s enthusiastic participation and his clear vision for a 'cool,' 'stage-like,' and 'special' room that felt like a hotel, specifically requesting a four-poster bed. This collaborative approach between mother and son led to a creatively energizing experience for the author and resulted in a room that Major adores. The design concept for Major's room centered around a chic red, white, and blue theme, aiming for a British hotel room aesthetic. A key element was the selection of impactful wallpaper from Serena & Lily, which served as the foundation for the room's color story. To prevent the mixed prints from being overwhelming, the author employed a design trick of pairing them with textiles in the same color palette, ensuring visual cohesion. The design inspiration was further solidified upon discovering gold bedside lamps with crimson shades, which immediately sparked the entire concept in her mind. Upon selecting the wallpaper and lamps, the author enlisted professional painters to create a custom ceiling blend that perfectly matched the crimson shades of the lamps, adding a bespoke touch to the room. The search for textiles led to a serendipitous discovery of fabric for the drapery, also from Serena & Lily. Although the fabric was later discontinued, underscoring its unique appeal, it played a crucial role in enhancing the room's sophisticated yet playful atmosphere. An ultra-modern canopy bed was chosen to fulfill Major's specific request for a four-poster bed, contributing significantly to the room's dramatic flair. The author also incorporated a mix of high-end and budget-friendly items, a common practice in her design philosophy. Examples include a flush mount light and a bench from Target, which she customized by covering it with fabric to align with the room's color scheme. This blending of high and low pieces demonstrates an accessible yet stylish approach to interior design. The article concludes by inviting readers to ask questions about the design details, emphasizing the dramatic and personality-fitting outcome of the room. Detailed credits for various design elements and products used in Major's bedroom are provided, including specific items from Serena & Lily, Pottery Barn, Target, Amazon, and Minted. These credits encompass everything from the wallpaper, bed, duvet cover, sheets, and pillows to the nightstands, lamps, dresser, rug, book rack, baskets, artwork, and decorative accessories. This comprehensive list offers practical resources for readers inspired by the room's aesthetic. #KidsBedroom #InteriorDesign #RoomReveal #HomeDecor #SerenaAndLily #CustomDesign #ChildrensSpaces #DecoratingTips

As the seasons transition from summer to colder months, many seek to transform their bedrooms into cozy and visually appealing retreats. This guide offers inspiration for achieving a stunning bedroom aesthetic without a significant financial outlay, focusing on products from Big W to create a mid-century modern look. The total cost for the featured bedding elements is $176, excluding surrounding homewares, but individual components can be incorporated into existing setups to refresh the space. The centerpiece of this bedroom design is the $22 Elsie faux mohair throw. Cara Gibson, a senior home designer at Big W, highlights its rich color, which introduces warmth and contrast, along with its timeless check pattern and chunky fringe, which seamlessly blend bedding elements to enhance the overall cozy atmosphere. To fully replicate the suggested look, the process begins with foundational layers. A charcoal-colored flannelette fitted sheet and flat sheet form the base. These are then complemented by a contrasting dark purple blanket, followed by a quilt in another contrasting color. The strategic folding of the quilt and flat sheet, with the top quarter folded back towards the bed's base, creates a plush, oversized appearance often seen in stylish bedrooms. The Brilliant Basics cinched quilt cover set, priced at $35 for a queen size, is selected in white to allow the subsequent pillow and cushion arrangements to stand out. The finishing touch involves draping the Elsie faux mohair throw casually over the foot of the bed, adding a final layer of color, warmth, and textural contrast to achieve the retro aesthetic. For the pillows, the arrangement includes two in the charcoal flannelette and two in the cinched design, if the sets are purchased. These can be artfully arranged, either all four or two of each color, laid flat or propped against the bedhead or wall. Cushions in contrasting colors and patterns are then added, with an odd number, such as three, generally yielding the most aesthetically pleasing grouping. Specific suggestions include the Openook ruched velvet cushions in meta rose ($14) and dark denim ($20), topped with an Openook printed rectangular cushion ($10) for a playful retro accent. Gibson emphasizes that a crucial, yet often overlooked, detail for a luxurious and cloud-like feel is the quilt insert. Opting for the fluffiest insert available instantly adds volume and elevates the bed's overall appearance, making it as inviting as it looks. While the showcased design primarily uses white, meta rose, and dark denim, alternative color schemes are encouraged. For instance, swapping meta rose and dark denim cushions for sagebrush green and butter yellow can create a softer, more understated nostalgic feel, while still embracing bold geometric prints and playful textures. The article concludes with a list of the specific products used to create the retro bedding look, including their names and prices, to facilitate replication for those interested in adopting this styling approach. #BedroomStyling #HomeDecor #BudgetDecor #MidCenturyModern #BigW #InteriorDesign #TextileLayering #WinterBedroom #AffordableHomewares

The Metropolitan Opera's Patron Lounge, now known as the Keebler J. Straz Lounge, underwent a significant redesign by ELLE DECOR A-Listers Christine and John Gachot of Gachot Studios. This renovation marks a new chapter for the storied space, originally decorated by Billy Baldwin when the opera house opened in 1966. The Gachots, longtime fans of the Met Opera, were tasked with refreshing the lounge to reflect contemporary luxury while honoring its rich history and the grand aesthetics of the opera house. The original lounge, characterized by its wall-to-wall windows and domed ceiling, was designed by Baldwin to offer practical, flexible seating areas for guests. However, after decades, the space required a modern update. The Gachots were selected for their expertise in warm, sophisticated interiors, demonstrated in previous luxury hospitality projects like the Pendry Manhattan West and Detroit’s Shinola Hotel. Their approach to the Met Opera lounge involved a deep dive into the Met’s extensive archives, studying original sketches and photographs to reinterpret Baldwin's vision while introducing a fresh perspective. Inspired by Baldwin's initial layout, the Gachots divided the lounge into distinct zones for various activities, including a bar area, comfortable sofas, and tables for gathering. This zoning strategy ensures that the space remains versatile and inviting. The design seamlessly integrates with the opera's iconic common areas, such as the lobby with its red carpeting and travertine accents. The chosen color palette of blush, red, and camel complements these existing elements, creating a cohesive aesthetic throughout the venue. One of the standout features of the redesigned lounge is a glittering gold custom carpet by Creative Matters, which evokes the effervescence of freshly popped Champagne, serving as a luxurious counterpoint to the lobby's famous red carpet. Other custom elements include a brass Amuneal bar, screens upholstered in Clarence House fabric, and all furniture supplied by Roche Bobois. The bathrooms feature fixtures by Waterworks from the Bond collection, designed in collaboration with Gachot, alongside Waterworks sinks, mirrors, and stone. The lounge's new name, the Keebler J. Straz Lounge, honors a managing director on the Met Opera’s board who generously funded the renovation. Access to this exclusive space is reserved for Metropolitan Opera sponsor members. The redesign is intended to symbolize a renewed commitment to attracting and nurturing a new generation of opera enthusiasts and patrons, a sentiment echoed by both Straz and the Gachots. The project underscores the importance of cultural institutions and the role of design in preserving and evolving these significant spaces. #MetropolitanOpera #LoungeRedesign #GachotStudios #LuxuryInteriorDesign #CulturalRenovation #HospitalityDesign #NewYorkDesign #OperaHouse #InteriorDecor
