Omar & Oz win The Block in 2022 with a record-breaking profit!

After 12 weeks full of renovating, styling, drama, tears and laughter, The Block Tree Change has come to an end. And what a conclusion it was last night, with an auction finale like no other seen throughout the 18 series of Australia’s favourite renovation show! Omar & Oz were first up in the auction order and ultimately walked away with an incredible win of $1,686,666 winnings, after The Block ‘super buyer’ Danny Wallis purchased their home.

It was, however, a night filled with more lows than highs, with both Ankur & Sharon and Dylan & Jenny’s houses being passed in under the reserve (which was $4,080,000 for all five houses). Seasoned renovators Ryan & Rachel secured a profit of $169,999.50 to put them in a distant second place, while judge favourites Tom & Sarah-Jane made a heart-breaking $20,000.

As the official supplier of the wardrobes and homes offices for The Block in 2022, it has been incredible to work with the five amazing teams of Blockheads, as well as host Scott Cam, and help create more than 35 rooms. Below, we explore some of our favourite spaces and share how you can bring your dream wardrobes and home offices to life in your home with Kinsman.
