Project Name: The Block 2026 | House 2
Blockheads: Chantel and Wyatt
Landscaper: Cursio Brothers, Cursio Tiling
Plungie is proud to be the official Pool Supplier of The Block 2026.
Chantel and Wyatt carried their signature light and bright aesthetic all the way outdoors, creating a fresh poolside space with plenty of coastal appeal.
Their 6m x 3m Plungie Max, finished in Sahara Sand ecoFinish, sits at the heart of the design - bright, breezy and made for Mount Eliza!

Key project elements
A Pop of Pattern Poolside
Keeping with their refined palette, Chantel and Wyatt added interest through a patterned waterline tile, pulling in soft greens and coastal tones, inspired by the surrounding landscape and beautiful Mount Eliza setting.
The Max was installed semi-recessed to meet the level of the home and deck, creating a seamless transition from inside-out, and making the pool feel completely integrated into the overall home.
Pick Your Poolside Perch
When it comes to lounging, House 2 is certainly not short on options! Striped bench seating, classic loungers, comfy armchairs paired with parasols - all create plenty of places to settle in and relax around the water.
The finishing touch? A chic SILUX poolside daybed, bringing another playful hit of colour and texture to the space – and arguably the best seat in the house for soaking up those Mount Eliza pool days!
We asked Chantel & Wyatt a few questions about their Plungie experience on The Block, here's what they said...
"Thanks so much. We absolutely loved the pool!"
What inspired the look and feel of your outdoor space?
"The look and feel of our outdoor space was so important to us and every element was thoughtfully planned out. We wanted a spacious pool and deck area as hosting and safe play for children was our main priority.
To us space is luxury and that is what we achieved by extending our pool deck."
Were you there for the install? What was it like seeing the pool go in?
"We were there for the pool install and we couldn’t believe how seamless the install was. It really was one of those proud moments of wow, look at this beautiful home we are creating. We went with the lighter colour pool which gives it that holiday/resort style feel and we are from the Gold Coast so that is absolutely our vibe."
Are you happy with how it all came together? Do you have a favourite detail?
"We are so happy with how it all came together, every time we visit the house we are just in awe of what we have created. The details, the pool, the workmanship, the styling, everything ties together so well. And all the contestants said our deck was the best so I think that says a lot about the feeling we created when you walk into the space, over just viewing it in a photo.
My favourite detail would have to be the bench seat we created that runs down the side of our pool. You can just imagine children sitting there, enjoying their ice blocks, in the sunshine!"
