Kitchen Week delivered some of the strongest VELUX moments on The Block so far.
All five kitchens featured opening VELUX skylights, with several teams also bringing daylight into their butler’s pantries using fixed skylights.
What stood out to us was how different the solutions were from house to house. Three larger skylights above an island in some kitchens, two smaller units in another, plus separate pantry skylights where daylight was the main priority.
That is the useful takeaway for a real renovation. There is no single “kitchen skylight” formula. Placement, ventilation, blinds, cabinetry, lighting and the way the room is used all matter.
And if the kitchen is already finished, installation care matters too. Protecting benchtops, cabinetry and other internal surfaces, then cleaning up properly afterwards, is part of doing the job well.
