    Hi guys / gals...

    I am planning to make L-box n false ceiling for my living / dining area.

    Kindly refer to the photos to comment.

    Firstly I wanna ask, does this design make any sense? Will it turn out ok?

    Regarding the false ceiling near the main entrance, is it too wide?

    Lightings wise, with the downlights, is it sufficient to brighten up the house, or do I need to place cove lightings in addition to that?

    BTW, arrangements of downlights is it ok?

    Most importantly, design wise ok? And cost effective?

    Anyone wanna suggest better ideas, with better design and perhaps more cost effective?

    Planning to engage a company (being recommended by some forumers here), specialise in making cornices.

    Thank you...

    well... first and foremost.... wat are the things that you are planning to have in your living room and dining room? if there are nothing really significant lie a tv ft wall, we just have to play wif having suffficient lights...

    dean my man.. saying that you wanna finish everything by the end of this month is a little too late dun you think? as you can see... the number of days left before the end of the month is like slightly more than a week onli... even if you wanna do, the carpenters cannot do it... how long is your existing cabinet anyway?

    Hi, anyone has any full height shoe cabinet design to share? I want to ask my carpenter to build one.

    well, the size of the cabinet will be dependent on the no of people you have staying in your home... plus whter they are shoe fanatics or not.. these info will be able to give a more accurate design for your place.. not to mention, the current style of your home...

    well... this is once again a matter of whether you would wan an id firm to get it done for you... in a way, if you got an id to work for u... definitely it will cost a little more, but of course, you will have lesser hassle since generally he orf she will be the one who will coordinate the renovastions for you.. this way, you have more time on your hands to deal wif other stuff, perhaps getting the ideal furniture you wanted for your place?

    hey there guys, i currently have a place in woodlands, and i was wondering if i could fit in a wardrobe and a tv area at the same time... i went to this ID recently, he said that it is possible to do something like a sliding panel on the wardrobe to mount the tv... this idea is new to me, but im not really sure if this will be feasible or not... any suggestions?

    Hi everyone, I'm renovating my first home and need your comments to double check my id idea

    Usually the kitchen floor lower than the living hall for resale flat right? My ID asked me to hack the wall leading to the kitchen, open concept. then he will hack the kitchen floor and cabinet and lay cement over it and then "mesh". This is supposed to level the flooring between kitchen and living hall. I heard (vaguely) from my bro in law that hdb laws do not allow but id say he has been doing it for years!

    Any one has any experience in this? thanks in advance

    i seriously think your bro in law is right bout this.. even if your id has done it for years.. the likelihood is that your reno cost will increase.. this shld be a qn of whether or not it is necessary for your living hall and kitchen to be levelled... just to be on the safe side... i think you shld go review on the hdb rules and regulations to see if it really is applicable to do so..

    Why you don't try to do it by yourself you can looks for interior design magazines for the guide. And if there is an Interior designer all they need to do is to support you.

    of course if you have the time to have your place done DIY, it will be best to do so.. but the concern will be whether the thing you have done DIY will be durable enough.. letting an ID do the job for you will ensure that the design is up to your requirements, plus freeing you of the shackles of doing everything yourself.. bottom line: if you are able to do it within the constraints of your own free time, by all means, go ahead..

    maybe on the cheaper side, you might wanna put something like those string curtains.. that way, you might still be able to sustain the contemporary side of your living room... im not sure if putting a painting there will actually help to divivde the 2 rooms, so if you some kinda painting at home, maybe you can experiment wif it, and see how it goes? do update me on the results though!! i'd like to know..

    need experience and suggestions of folks in the forum - we are currently renovating our unit and we currently are having troubles deciding how best to "divide" the living and dining rooms. nothing too fancy...jus wanted to have something to make a distinction btw the 2 areas.

    my designer (not ID, cos only engaged his services to design and draw up a 3D pic) suggested use of mirror to do the division, but am hoping to explore other options. do give me some ideas and suggestions how! :huh:

    how about doing something like a see thru divider? i dunno if that will make your apartment look less complicating, since alot of mirrors do make the whole place a bit confusing..
