I’ve always thought I’d like to go on The Block. But, aside from the fact that I’d be ineligible because of my job (Domain, of course, has very close ties to the show), my family tell me I’m probably too emotional to survive the reality TV gauntlet. They could be right. Speaking to former contestants starring on our cover this week, I’ve realised it really takes a certain type of person to come out unscathed, or at least able to see the up-side of sudden TV and social media fame. To celebrate the show’s 20th year, I spoke to some past Blockheads, and took a look back at what has made the show a success. ●

As one of Melbourne’s bestknown band-bookers, Paris Martine has always been a strong supporter of live music and championing local acts when she assembles weekly line-ups.

She was part of the united front hard at work to save the iconic Carlton pub where she works – The John Curtin Hotel. Long a favourite for unionists, journalists and musicians, the new owners agreed to re-lease the pub and allow it to remain as a live music venue.

“The John Curtin Hotel was heritage listed after a 10-month long campaign,” Martine says.

“This was a joint-effort win that involved Trades Hall, local community and band members banding together to say we cannot lose another pub and live music venue to apartments. It took an official green ban by unions, a statement by the deputy lord mayor, and support from the Heritage Council to see the owners, the Russell family receive a 10-year lease, but the fight for places of community value is far from over.”

Paris shares some of her favourite loves of a city she holds close.

Fave bar

FEE FEES, COLLINGWOOD

A great addition to Johnston Street. It’s cute, fun and it oozes with love and hard work. The cocktails are creative and change regularly enough to surprise you every time.

The music celebrates rock’s more glamorous side, which is a tribute to its owner, who you can often find tending her own bar or dancing on it.

HOWLER, BRUNSWICK

Outside of my chosen home, the band room at the John Curtin Hotel, I have to say Howler. I just love a music room built with purpose. Wide stage, high roof, loads of moving lights – it’s a mini theatre that showcases the acts well.

MARQUIS OF LORNE, FITZROY

Fave Melbourne memories

My favourite nights in Melbourne are seeing old buildings opened for public performance. Seeing Chunky Move take over the Nicholas Building for their installation Arcade was amazing. You could wander through the rooms

witnessing individual stories told through dance. Another Melbourne highlight was dancing inside the State Library at an ungodly hour for Melbourne Music Week and in the reimagined Argus Buildings, which became a supper-club for a night.

YESHI, FITZROY

A collective joy

The best of our city stars in the Melbourne International Film Festival.

August in Melbourne means only one thing – escaping the dark winter streets for the much cosier darkness of a cinema. The Melbourne International Film Festival always brings a feast of overseas treats, but this year’s program sees our town taking pride of place.

There are standout features from local directors including Sunflower and opening-night film Shayda, while a pair of big-hitter docos celebrate two different sides of the Melbourne we love.

Australia’s Open offers a frank retrospective of more than five decades of our town’s beloved tennis tournament, while Ego: The Michael Gudinski Story tracks the impact of a legendary Melburnian on the world of pop music.

Ego director Paul Goldman says his film isn’t just paying affectionate tribute to the life and legacy of the late Gudinski – who founded

Mushroom Records and, more recently, helped make Ed Sheeran an international superstar –but to the city that made him.

“The documentary, in a way, is also a kind of a love letter to Melbourne,” Goldman says.

“Michael was a very, very proud Melburnian and he always like to talk about Melbourne as being the music capital of Australia.

“The live venues in Melbourne, and the bands that grew up here, have left an indelible mark on the Australian music industry.”

Featuring interviews with a host of musical legends from Sting and Kylie to Sheeran, Ego is packed with Aussie rock and pop classics that prove – if proof were needed – that our artists deserve a place alongside the global greats.

“We don’t respect some of the legacies and achievements of the really iconic artists

Australia has produced,” Goldman says. “There are moments when we celebrate our own, but it’s pretty rare compared to our joyous celebration of our sporting heroes.”

There’s certainly plenty of that joy to be found in Ili Bare’s Australia’s Open, which unpacks exactly what the tournament has meant to its home city –and what it says about us.

The director says she was keen to capture what the local audience, famed for their larrikin behaviour, bring to the global event as much as the gladiatorial tension of the matches.

“The Australian Open is our nation sort of announcing and projecting itself onto the world stage,” Bare says. “We go into the ins and outs of Pat Cash’s match in 1988, but we also look at why Australians want a winner so much. How do we define ourselves by sport, and why does Melbourne often talk itself up as [our] sporting capital?”

One explanation for why sport is such an important part of Melbourne life is it’s one of those things that still brings us all together, whatever our differences. “Sport gives us these moments when many, many people can collectively experience something at the same time,” Bare says.

The same might be true for live music and, of course, for a certain, much-prized film festival.

Goldman says he knows many people will watch Ego on the small screen, but MIFF offers audiences a unique, shared viewing experience.

“There could be no better place to launch the film,” he says. “I can’t wait to have the film out there screaming loud in a cinema, in front of a live festival audience who are hoping to be very, very excited.” ●

DOMAIN REVIEW
Left to right: The Block executive producer Justin Sturzaker with former contestants Tanya Guccione, Bianca Chatfield and Tom and Sarah-Jane Calleja.

Heroes and villains. Lovable larrikins and loud-mouths. Rookies and professionals. Drama queens and kings. They are the contestants from The Block ’s 20-year history, many of whom have gone on to careers in renovation and design, the media and even back on The Block

Yes, there’s season five contestant-turned-assistant foreman Dan Reilly, but in the upcoming season –set in Hampton East – another former Blockhead is back on the tools.

“It’s been cool to see how the show gets put together and how real it actually is,” says Tom Calleja. He and his wife Sarah-Jane were favourites of the judges during last year’s Tree Change season, and now Tom’s back on the show as the resident plumber for all the houses.

“We loved being on The Block. We have no regrets,” Sarah-Jane says.

With the show’s 19th season about to kick off, it’s easy to forget just how different it was from

we just knew that it would be an incredible fit”. They were right.

“You can equate The Block season to a giant sporting game – The Block renovation game,” Sturzaker says. “You can back your team, and Melburnians love that.”

It’s something season 14 (2018) contestant, sports commentator and former professional netballer Bianca Chatfield, knows well.

“You don’t realise how much you learn from playing sport.” Chatfield says. “You are instantly an organised person ’cause you have to be; you’re so used to working with people, having to find a mutual respect to get to a goal.”

That goal? To renovate one of the most notorious and run-down buildings in the show’s history – The Gatwick Hotel. Still, Chatfield and teammate Carla Dziwoki (also an ex-netballer) were cool and calm.

“We had so many mums of daughters coming up to us going, ‘Thank you so much for showing people how to do it,’ ” Chatfield says.

That brassiness has seen her co-host podcast I Just Can’t with fellow contestant Rachel Carr. She and Tom are also expecting their second baby –a brother for their two-year-old daughter, Cleo.

Despite the couple’s impressive room-win count during last year’s mammoth build in Gisborne, their auction result was less so.

“Deep down we wanted to win a few hundred grand – bloody oath – but we weren’t like, ‘Oh my god, this is gonna kill us if we don’t win anything’,” says Tom, who is also presenting awards (sponsored by hipages) on the upcoming season for quality building work.

“When we only made $20,000, we weren’t that gutted,” Sarah-Jane adds. “I mean, we were gutted because we worked our arses off!”

Sturzaker admits the sheer size and expense of the properties made it a very tough build for everyone.

“I don’t think we will ever do anything like that again, but it’s not to say that we won’t do anything equally challenging,” he says. “We were incredibly proud of it and the audience loved it.”

anything else on TV when it first aired in 2003. There were reno shows, reality shows and soap operas – but not really a combination of them all.

It’s something show creators Julian Cress and David Barbour realised while they were working on Channel Nine’s renovation series Changing Rooms with their now fellow executive producer Justin Sturzaker.

“They had an idea of, ‘What would happen if you combined Changing Rooms with the other big soap operas of the day?’ You know, 90210 and a sprinkle of Big Brother and a sprinkle of this and that,” Sturzaker says.

“They took it to [then Nine boss Kerry] Packer and Packer loved it and gave them a blank cheque to go and buy a building in Bondi – which was kind of unheard of.”

Two seasons, a hiatus and another Sydney season later, 2011 saw the show move to Melbourne, at the insistence of its producers.

Sturzaker says high ratings out of Melbourne played a part, but it was also “the access to the incredible property, the different types of buildings, the homewares stores, the leading edge in fashion –

For season 17 (2021) contestant, artist and makeup artist Tanya Guccione, the experience was altogether different. “My season on The Block was pretty tumultuous,” she says.

Block aficionados may remember the cheating scandal in the Fans vs Faves season set in Hampton. Guccione and her husband Vito found a production schedule that was meant to be off-limits to contestants.

She took a photo of it, and instead of fessing up, kept it under wraps until the finale – mainly, she says, to protect her kids from the online backlash. She was right to be worried. Death and rape threats were levelled at her on social media, and she began to fear for her safety.

“It is so archaic to behave in that way,” she says. “I’m just a normal chick who went on TV and did a dumb thing … call me an idiot, not a villain!”

Sarah-Jane Calleja reckons she could have wound up a villain on her season. “I was lucky that I was known for being loud and outspoken, but there was no drama, per se,” she says. “My mum would be like, ‘Are you using your vulgar words?’ and I’d be like, ‘Yes Mum, I say f--- on the show all the time!’”

Pride is something that shines through when talking to all of the past Blockheads.

“I think we realised what a moment in time it was to be working on something that’s been so iconic in Melbourne – the good and the bad of that building,” Chatfield says of The Gatwick. “We’re proud of it.”

Guccione now has a flourishing online art shop and also hosts a podcast called Let’s Talk About It She says Cress told her it would take time for her rocky experience on the show to feel more positive.

“He said, ‘Give it two or three years and you’ll think it’s the best thing you ever did,’ and he’s right,” she says. “People have done much worse for free!”

The producers are now on the hunt for next year’s properties, rumoured to be in Daylesford. Sturzaker says though the show might leave Melbourne at times for a “holiday”, it will always come back.

“Island Block – I keep pitching it every year,” Sturzaker says. “But I think we’ll always come home to Melbourne." ●

Ceramic stars ART & DECOR

These five Victorian ceramicists are worth keeping an eye on.

Art with a purpose. That’s what is created by these ceramic artists – who all hail from or now live in Victoria. From bowls and vessels to homewares and vases, their unique pieces combine form with function and exemplify creativity and skill.

Inspired by his grandparents’ ceramics, Melbourne-born and Los Angeles-based Jake Clark was hooked the minute he saw pitchers, large vessels and giant bowls on display.

“I fell in love with the uncertainty of what happens when ceramics go into the kiln way back when I was in high school,” says Clark, who is working on a solo show in LA and exhibiting in Madrid.

Clark has shown at Art Basel in Miami and Frieze London, and is known for his references to contemporary culture and his bombastic iconography.

There are lashings of slogans, food nods and a cult following that comes with his quirky ceramics.

He’s the great-nephew of Australian philanthropists Victor and Loti Smorgon (she donated $40 million and artwork to the National Gallery of Victoria).

“I was quite young when they passed away but had always been surrounded by artwork and had an appreciation for it,” Clark says.

He makes snow globes that capture iconic cities, along with swimmingpool-shaped ashtrays and vessels enshrining Californian foodie classics (think In-N-Out Burger).

JULIAN CALERO JAKE CLARK: CITY LIGHTS

James Lemon

From his studio in Northcote, New Zealand-born and Melbourne-based artist and ceramicist James Lemon cranks out ceramics that are playful pieces of art unto themselves.

His dinner plates have witty slogans, giving us a reason to smile when we sit down at the dinner table; he makes vessels kitted in precious stones and gems and adorns them decoratively for a point of difference; and his curved vases are made from glazed stoneware.

“Text is important to me,” Lemon says of his tongue-in-cheek plated words. “Sick of the drama” is but one giggle-moment example.

He infuses his ceramics with pop culture and religious references, with humour as his altar of reference.

Minaal Lawn

Indian-Australian contemporary artist Minaal Lawn is best known for her knotted sculptural objects; they are full of twisted ambition and sit pretty everywhere from domestic spaces to gallery shelves.

A soft textural pulse is felt through her abstracted clay forms, inspired by her heritage and Australian upbringing. She works from a studio in Glenlyon.

Cassie Hansen

Kyneton-based magazine editor and ceramicist Cassie Hansen gets her kiln thrills by making mid-fire and stoneware vessels.

Hansen is hands-on at the wheel, and in February, became the first winner of the Shelley Simpson ceramic prize, scoring $10,000 to help further her ceramic career.

She began making ceramics in 2016, and continues to edit Artichoke magazine. Hers is a world of design and architecture references – where Bauhaus form influences function.

Sharon Alpren

UK-born Sharon Alpren is a former London fashion and homewares buyer who now resides on the outskirts of Melbourne in the Macedon Ranges, where she makes her pottery.

She lets the clay do the talking, letting fire and glaze determine what comes next in her collection.

“I wanted to make pieces that are used and loved; that people pick up and touch, feel their imperfections, sense the raw, earthy materials,” Alpren says. ●

FEATURE HOUSE

HAWTHORN EAST \ 5 HARTS PARADE

Boasting a rich lineage dating back to about 1890, Henley has sophistication, style and family space in spades. The house blends elegant heritage features and mature landscaping with spacious modern living across two levels. Located in a quiet neighbourhood that’s still close to all the action, this a prime example of what Melbourne’s leafy inner-east is all about. Crucially, the rear garden has a northfacing orientation, ensuring plenty of light circulates in the open family area out the back.

The expansive downstairs floor plan houses the main bedroom, a study, formal sitting and dining rooms and a flowing family area. The main bedroom overlooks the delightful front garden and has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite. It’s next to the front verandah and, together with the slate roof, presents a beautiful impression to the street, which is full of similar facades.

The formal dining and sitting rooms opposite the main bedroom circulate around an open fireplace. The study could double as an extra bedroom with built-in wardrobes.

The gourmet kitchen and light-filled dining and living areas are the real heart of this home, flowing into the rear entertainment deck and a private garden enabling privacy.

Upstairs are three more bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes and surrounding a central bathroom. This area is ideal for a children’s or guest wing.

Back outside and off the rear cobblestone lane is a double garage and workshop area, and a flexible studio that could also work as a storeroom.

There are polished floorboards throughout, and other features include ducted heating, split-system airconditioning, a security alarm and plantation shutters. The property’s total allotment is about 442 square metres on a leafy street, close to desirable schools, cafes, parks, walkways and the Yarra River.

Camberwell Junction, with the glorious Rivoli Cinema, shops and restaurants, offers plenty of lifestyle amenities in the neighbourhood as well. The junction’s Sunday market will quickly become part of the weekly routine.

The dream of Melbourne’s leafy east is alive and well on Harts Parade. ●
