Get the inside scoop on the styling strategies from your favourite teams

Take a tour of this season’s houses and get the inside scoop on your favourite team’s style strategy, plus find out where to buy the things you love from each home

Three’s The Block NZ once again has the nation firmly in its grip, watching (sometimes through gritted teeth) as the teams wheel and deal their way through the gruelling 12-week challenge of designing and styling a contemporary three-storey townhouse.

This season’s site is in the heart of Hobsonville Point, a bustling, master-planned community housing subdivision in West Auckland.

A decade from now, Hobsonville Point will be home to around 11,000 Aucklanders. There’s no denying attitudes and opinions around high-density housing are changing due to the huge demand for new homes, and this year’s contestants have been tasked with the challenge of stamping their unique style on the exact same townhouse.

Co-host Shelley Ferguson says, “This season is special because it really exemplifies the idea of community; the houses are located in the heart of a modern subdivision that is all about connecting with the people closest to you. With similar facades, the pressure is really on for this year’s teams to up their design game in order to make their home unique and stand out from the others.”
