Self-proclaimed “regular renovators” and winners of “The Block NZ” 2013, Alice and Caleb Pearson strive for creating inspirational spaces with each project they tackle. Amongst their triumphs was the upgrade of a former Auckland state house, solid and dependable but in much need of some TLC.
They catered to their family favourites with an induction cooktop for instant heat response, perfect for whipping up a quick meal on “Taco Tuesdays” while the large self-cleaning oven makes preparing a delicious roast for their guests a pleasure! A freestanding dishwasher is practical and easy.

With the kitchen being a busy room at the centre of family activity, Alice and Caleb wanted home appliances that not only looked good but also blended well. That's why they chose Haier's front loader washing machine and heat pump dryer which fit perfectly under the large scullery bench. To keep things feeling cohesive, the quad door refrigerator freezer was placed on the other side of the galley, ensuring that various foods and fresh produce were kept chilled at just the right temperatures. And the best part? The complementary colours of these kitchen and laundry appliances matched the brushed nickel tapware, cabinetry handles, and stainless steel sinks, tying together the overall design.
A decade on after their reality TV win, the couple are still living the renovators dream, one property at a time, demonstrating the smart use of space with user-centred design and innovative appliances for inspired living.
