MIKAELA & ELIZA (WA) Kitchen and Harper’s room
Jamie (on the loft bed) Probably one of the best built pieces of furniture we’ve seen so far.
LLB There is something so fresh and crisp about what they’ve done to Harper’s room – I really like it.
Wendy The subway tiles are the wrong way!
Score 21/30
TIM & MAT (VIC) Entry, hallway and ensuite
Jamie I love this – that is hands down the best hallway treatment I have seen in House Rules.
LLB Overall, they delivered a weak entry, an overachieving hallway and a surprisingly successful ensuite!
Wendy
I cannot believe that they have won my heart with what is normally the most boring room in the house.
Score 24/30
PETE & COURTNEY (VIC) Dining room and Imogen’s bedroom
Jamie (on Imogen’s room) We’ve got two rooms for the price of one.
LLB (on the dining room) Pete and Courtney are great designers but they have dropped the ball.
Wendy (on the dining room) I don’t understand why in a small house you would create a space invader.
Score 20/30
KATIE & ALEX (NSW) Master bedroom and laundry
Jamie I wouldn’t have thought about putting textured wallpaper into a laundry but it kind of works.
LLB (on the master bedroom) House Rules just got Olympic gold!
Wendy (on the laundry) I love that they’ve gone for open shelving that makes the whole room feel bigger.
Score 24/30
LISA & ANDY (SA) Loungeroom and bathroom
Jamie (on the ceiling) This feels like a really bad attempt at something that should be in a flight lounge.
LLB (Lounge room) Aqua and oak are the absolute epicentre of dag-dom – so here we are at aqua and oak!
Wendy I was terrified at the idea of a mermaid bathroom, but this is good.
Score 22/30
Last night the QLD couple were forever grateful when they walked through the door of their new dream home. Chippie brothers Tim and Mat “nailed it” scoring a perfect 10 for their secret hallway, which hit the house rule of hiding function with form.
