when did tt happened?? tot u usually say u king and i maria???Junxian, my neighbor to be, hehe. yeah! got change in plans le....quite a complete change, though the main tings still there. Entertainment cum gaming room, his gym, my WIW...
My layout plan (with drawings)
Today, a creative friend of mine gave me a new idea for the glass room.
(1)To create a cozy area in the glass room. It consist of a rattan hang chair, a english tea table, probably a sandbag and alot of cusions. It will my my cozy reading area. Or my chit chat area with my girl friends (guys will probably be gaming with waxus in the entertainment room or working out in the gym with him).
It be perfect if it has a sky painted wall/ wall paper
My creative friend also gave another brilliant idea..
(2)To put a jacuzi inside the glass room!!!!!It be perfect especialli since the WIW is juz behind the glass room.
its brilliant, but...but..its a glass room!!! But its brilliant,....though i doubt i got the courage to do it....haha
Other thoughts for the glass room is, a dining area,
a bar counter (but we dont drink....can we eat ice cream there? )
or the pool table...
Hmmmmmm..any suggestions??? Which would u choose if u were me?
to create a cozy corner there is a great idea but not feasible. there will be no ventilation inside the room unless u are prepared to install an aircon inside. moreover thk the area there is rather small...
it is more appropriate to locate the dining area there.

Only saw lots of sand every where.
Dad inspected the sand and was satisfied that it wasn't of inferior quality. I was so worried that he would find something wrong with the sand and demand for it to be changed cos if that happened then the reno will be delayed further.
Hope tomorrow some tiling will be done. Sigh
wah u dad sand expert ah.. or is an engineer? hee

bought a 5I resale unit. reno will begin in mid-jan. my 3d drgs r as shown:
Dining area & balcony: built-in bench with mirrors. don't like the dining chairs ID proposed. aiming "Poly" chair from XZQT. Balcony is at the far end.
Kitchen: open concept kitchen with 'breakfast counter', white laminate cabinets with black glass backing
Living area: TV feature wall with built-in shoe cabinet
Master bedrm: TV feature wall, headboard, side table & see thru master toilet
All the above drgs r 1st draft only. have some admendment to make. do feel free 2 gif feedback & kip a lookout 4 more updated drgs...
-
I have a question le...Whenever your contractor or ID agree to give you something for free... do you get it written down? or do you ask him to write in black and white?
i didn't. based on trust lo. but to play safe u can ask him to amend the work list.

hmm... if 90k is only on renovation, then require to work on extra money to buy a good bed, electronic appliances, light fitting, sanitary fittings and furniture. Small stuff like these will bring the class of the unit too plus not to mention during construction of the flat, there might be additional cost coming up on the way.
But if 90K is inclusive of the above which I mentioned then it will be a better deal.
90k is almost inclusive of everything..if not i will haha
omg 90k!? Its a bomb. Have you try going ard asking for different quotes? Don't just sign up without doing that even if you're super comfy with the ID..
we had 4 quotes. range from 45k to 75k
in the end we signed up with this id, the most ex one.
cos the other 3 proposals are only avg, and 2 of them more like a salesman than a designer
omg 90k!? Its a bomb. Have you try going ard asking for different quotes? Don't just sign up without doing that even if you're super comfy with the ID..
yah want swee so bo pian
Really looking forward to see more 3d pics of your 90k reno.
will post it soon!
from your kitchen render your counter table seems to be facing the main door? If so, it might be too near and can be awkward.
For 90K can tell us what flooring are you using?
is actually nt too near the entrance. moreover there will be a glass partition erect there. we are using homogenous floor tiles for living and kitchen area, and parquet flooring for bedrooms
SPAM CHOP! congrats on the new place... 90k for reno
i see a few similar items in the drawings with what we are having at our place...
the dining chairs... in different color
and the wall painting..
we saw similar ones at XZQT. but we will not be gng for this dining chairs. got better one in mind
We have the same layout for my new house will be at je too.. are u staying at 200++ or 100++..??
Btw very nice theme u have there..
