northhaven 4 Report post Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Thanks everyone for the kind wishes. I certainly hope that everything will turn out nice too So far, my ID has been prompt, providing updates via whatsapp on progress.Here are some BEFORE pictures:1. Living room (left is the main door when you come in) 2. Another view of Living Room. Previous owner built a feature wall to hide the bomb shelter. Have removed it and will replace with another idea that ID is working on. 3. Dining area and walkway to rooms 4. MBR and BR2. Am combining 2 rooms into 1. One side to be used for wardrobe and mini office area. 5. Kitchen. Smaller than most 4-room without the service balcony but size good enough for a light cooker like me. 4. Toilet. Previous owner has boxed up the pipes. Have asked ID to see if can retain to save some cost. Edited April 8, 2014 by northhaven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northhaven 4 Report post Posted April 18, 2014 Have been busy at work and have not visited the unit since hacking started. Since I'm holding out on furniture shopping till place more or less done up, I thought of doing some online research on what I can do for TV feature wall.As my current unit's bomb shelter faces the main entrance, I have been looking for ways to cover it. I didn't want to do a chalkboard as I don't think I can keep up doodling all the time. If I extend the wall to become my TV feature wall, I'll end up with a miserable corner for dining and max can sit 4, not friendly when friends come over since my dining area will be behind the tv wall. Initial idea was to then place the sofa on the bomb shelter wall side and opposite become TV area but I didn't like the shoe cabinet - TV wall - Shelf idea all one line look. So the hunt for the solution plan begins. ID Foo has been most patient when we went round and round on options and keep changing the orientation of the TV area as that affects placement of lighting planning.One of the ideas we explored as below. Finally found something to explain how it works - the TV will sit on this sliding modular wall that slides to "open" the dining area so when friends come over, the dining table can be pulled out to sit more people. Bomb shelter will also be concealed.What do you guys think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
