Week 4: Han and Can

The room: Main bedroom and walk in robe

Score: 20/30 (fifth/last place)

Judge Darren Palmer loved the walk-in robe. “It’s stunning. It’s like chocolate and vanilla mixed together,” he said.

A modern bedroom featuring a large bed with white and brown bedding, colorful pillows, and a green throw blanket. The blue headboard wall has an arched design and pendant lights on either side. A wooden nightstand with decorative items sits next to the bed. The room includes a blue rug, beige curtains, and a rectangular skylight in the ceiling.

WA couple Han and Can produced a bold main bedroom design, offset with a calm and elegant walk-in robe.


Bold and brave was the theme for WA couple Han and Can when they designed their main bedroom and walk-in robe. Following on from the success of their ensuite last week, they took inspiration from famed film director Wes Anderson with a controversial blue feature wall (Santiago Blue by British Paints) behind the bedhead in their bedroom, which was mirrored in the joinery in the room.

Taking inspiration from the work of local artist David Bromley, Han and Can designed a palette of striking blue and rich ochre, calling it an elevated version of the second kids bedroom they designed in Week 2. An occasional chair in a rust velvet created a cosy corner, while a bench seat provided a respite (and perhaps additional storage).

A modern bedroom with a large skylight, featuring a bed with multiple pillows and blankets, a blue rug, and a side table with wine glasses. An abstract painting hangs above a fireplace on the left wall. The room has beige carpeting, curtains on the far wall, a unique hanging light fixture near the bed, and a seating area in the corner.

The couple continued their passion for curves – a curved bedhead was complemented by a custom-made circular skylight. The joinery, the bench seat and built-in fireplace, and the bedhead also featured fluted cladding, which added a mid-century aesthetic through the space.

The walk-in robe was a big hit with the judges, featuring luxurious chocolate joinery, with creamy vanilla marble handles.

A split view of a hallway and vanity area. The left side shows a long, narrow hallway with shelves and drawers on both sides, leading to an arched doorway with a lion picture on the wall. The right side features a vanity area with a marble countertop, mirror, overhead shelves, and a gold-colored stool. Both views showcase modern design and organised storage.

Design tip

Even if you are on a budget, try going all out with the fittings to add a sense of luxury. Think brushed brass, rich charcoals or even crystal handles for dramatic effect.
