Last night we saw the first bathroom reveal for The Block Octagon. The couples really made a miraculous recovery from last weeks challenge disaster! WOW! They stepped up the styling that’s for sure. I don’t envy them doing the odd shape rooms “like a piece of pizza”.

Dean and Shay stepped it up and took out the win with their $40,000 penthouse bathroom. It was impressive (and so it should be!). The judges were blown away and they loved all the detail in the room from the sinks, timber vanity and tapwear. They gave Dean and Shay 28.5/30 plus the $10,000 prize money. Here are the photos…

Next up were Kingi and Caro. They came 2nd with a score of 27.5/30. I wasn’t sure how that graffiti bath would turn out. It’s ok, but not my favourite thing. What did you think? The judges called it “exciting” and said Kingi “nailed” the rendered walls. Here are the photos…

Whitney and Andy produced a fabulous bathroom I thought. They scored 26.5/30. They went “from zeroes to heroes”, impressing the judges with big-ticket items. After last weeks challenge I thought they were doomed. But somehow they managed to smash this bathroom out! The pedestal bath was a great feature. Check out the photos below…

Next in the scoring came the girls – Suzi and Vonni. They received 24/30 and the judges said it was “sexy and had pizzazz” and loved the pendant lights (who has pendants in their bathroom anyway??). I really didn’t like this bathroom at all, but that’s a personal preference thing! The blacks, and those foul tiles did nothing for me. Here are the photos…

Last on the scoreboard this week was Luke and Ebony. They were given 22.5/30. That’s a shame because I did think their room was much better than Suzi and Vonni’s. I personally liked the blue tiles. The judges did say that individually all their feature items were spot on, but together they got a little wishy washy. I can agree with that, but still on a whole I liked the bathroom. Take a look at the photos below…

What did you think of the bathrooms this week? Can you see an early winner amongst them?
