LIVING ROOM

Some pre-reno pictures ... MAIN DOOR

Thanks lilithfiend. My ID is more of a contractor with some ID knowledge I think. He is recommended by my property agent (one-stop shop service) My hacking permit was approved before the completion date. Got the seller to sign some idemnity form. For the toilets pipes, it will be very similar to what Goobii has done. I got the idea from him ...

Thanks pink. Actually hor, I think the panels will eat up a lot of space. Confirm cannot put things behind. I am KIV-ing the folding panel doors and will look around for better solutions.

Thanks! There is no storeroom, so got to find ways to hide things. I think over time, the storage will still be insufficient if I accumulate too much junk.

Dark glossy grey 60x60 homogenous for whole unit (living, bedrms and kitchen) Dark matte grey 60x30 homogenous for bathroom mix with cream matte 60x30 homogenous (new stock arrived!) Cream matte textured 60x30 for bathroom mirror wall

Master Room (design to be finalized of 10" wardrobe) Combined bathroom and wc (tiles to be changed to dark grey and off white) Extended bathroom with vanity top and mirror with lights

3D drawings (first draft) ... still waiting for the finalized version. Living Room (hacking the paquet floor to be replaced by glossy 60x60 grey homogenous tiles) Kitchen (changing to black cabinets, removing built-in oven, and top cabinets above stove to be replaced chimney hob) Study / Recreational Room (pending finalize design of 14" storage cupboard cum feature wall)

Thanks db. Old flats have long kitchens. Since I am not doing any heavy cooking, I figure I will minimise the kitchen to have more room for dining area. For 3i, the bathroom and wc are separated. I prefer a "one stop shop" So combining them and extending the area into the kitchen. I got these ideas from ossify and goobii ... The entire reno will take about 5 weeks, 2 of which will be mainly the wet works. Complete overhaul of the flooring as well.

Some pics from the valuation report ... will take more and upload the rest ... Living Room Kitchen Master Room Bedroom 2 (to be covered to recreational / study room)

Thanks curryqueen. Yes I will be moving to Lor Lew Lian ... hence Durian Lane I was trying Flickr but the link doesn't seem to work. So I am using Photobucket now.

After 3 months of reading the many inspirational t-blogs, I am ready to begin my journey here. The Original Floor Plan Initial plan using floorplanner" Consulted a FS master and his recommended layout: The suggested start work was 11 June 2010 between 1.30pm to 1.40pm. The actual hacking will start on Monday or Tuesday. Still waiting for the final answer from the contractor/ID.
