    空亡宅 = house with readings lie on the 'Heavenly Void' line, where Qi is not connected! See attached for further info:
  2. It is very useful & convenient...I can place the remote control device beside me when I sleep and I can just switch the lights ON or OFF at my finger tips without waking up and walking around the room!!
  3. Thank you for sharing the touching music video. I remembered my children's late father was on his death bed and asked for my forgiveness....which came late! Always stay in love with your family......that's why I am making the sacrifice spending a bomb$ to renovate our home for the children's sake...to keep them happy in my nest. :)
  4. My comments on that L-shape sofa is that the Groves may collect dust and difficult to maintain. Then, in the long run after few months, you find the leather starts to show sign of aging & crumpled. That's why I never buy leather sofa again! I was at Mode Studio during my reno last Dec and saw this set....a 3 seater & lounge set in removable fabric, and the seat comes in one long piece, no joints!
  5. I have recently installed the remote control for the lightings in my Master Bedroom: This photo shows how the device is programmed for the various lights: I paid around $100 to the Electrician who installed our electrical works....and he supplied me the control device. If you are contemplating of getting similar control for the lightings in your house, please tell your electrician in advance as this needs special wiring / programming. You can visit my t-blog for information: http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?s=...st&p=613549
  6. It is not a problem if you are keeping a few fishes in a small container or tank. It is not about where you put the small fish tank; it is the size that matters. If you are considering of placing a huge 2 feet by 2 feet fish tank in your bedroom, then all the above comments provided here including feng shui effect have to be taken into consideration.

    I got my curtains custom-made by Unique Zone, with a small showroom Balestier. This curtain maker (a young couple) is highly recommended by most ID firms, and their workmanship is really excellent! After spending so much $$$ on home renovation, it makes sense to pay a little more for quality material and workmanship! Here are some photographs to share: Quality hooks & neat workmanship... Shining organza Day Curtain, reversed dressing for MBR:
  8. Dear Jennifer Thank you for visiting my t-blog. I am glad you like it as all our friends & relatives including my ID also said that the chandelier is beautiful. Initially, I thought I was overcharged for the chandelier ($899) as my colleague installed a similar design which she paid for $400 only. However, upon closer examination, I realised my chandelier has real crystals, not those 'plastic' or 'fake' crystals, and the effect of the light casting makes the difference.
  9. I like to thank all friends here who have read the above thread on house Feng Shui, and those who have PM me with with questions. I will try my best to reply you as soon as I can. Do stay tune for part 2....
  10. Continued with The Front & Side Entrance This is the front & side entrance to our unique unit. The gates were repainted in beige and both doors were replaced to natural wood shade according to my FSM's advice. On the topic of Feng Shui for door, here are some abstracts for your reading pleasure: Apart from the orientation of the house, it is also important to note the Life Gua of the occupants. The entrance ought to be in a sector that is conducive for the master of the house and the sector should suit his or her line of work. For example, if you are Life Gua 3 and your main door is located in the East, your Life Gua is supported by the East palace which is of the wood element. And if your line of work is connected with the wood or fire based industry, then your career prospect is likely to be good. This is because the entrance of a house is the most important sector in Feng Shui as it is considered the mouth of Qi. On the other hand, if the main door is in the * (which is Direct Spirit for period 8), it is considered not favorable. This is because the entrance of a house is Yang and by locating the main door at the * which is Yin, it violates the Direct /Indirect Spirit principles. The residents will find it harder to acquire wealth. Other important rules to consider when it comes to the main doors are as follows:- • A mountain in front of a house where a timely facing star is at the main door will deactivate the facing star. This formation is known as water dragon climbing a mountain. • A main door should not be in a facing direction that clashes with the direction of your animal sign. The clash is more severe if your animal sign belonged to the Rabbit, Horse, Rooster and Rat. • A bright hall outside the door way and another bright hall inside the door way is conducive to allow Qi to settle in without any obstruction. • Make sure that the front door is not directly under an over head beam as the latter will suppress the Qi on its way in. • A toilet should not be located right above the front door as it is considered inauspicious. • A staircase which is aligned in a straight line with the main door causes the Qi to rush out. A staircase should not be located in the center of a house as Qi is not able to consolidate. To be continued~~~~
  11. The Extreme Makeover Series Continued with Before & After Makeover photographs: The Central of the House: Used to be open walking space, and now occupied by the TV console which divides the new Livingroom & Dining area. The Foyer converted into Livingroom: The Livingroom converted into new Bedroom:
  12. The remote control lightings need special wiring for programming the switches. Yes, you can buy any lighting preferred and have it wired to the control, which the electrician will know how to program it. The electrician quoted me extra $$ for such programming, including the remote control device.
  13. Hi, abbong I have sent you the contact details of my ID. Let me know if you need any other information.

  16. The same tree inside our livingroom before the reno....thriving as there is sunlight & tender loving care!
  17. Hi, Hi, This is to reply to a private message requesting for more pictures of the interior of our pole system wardrobes. These are the 2 pictures I can find in my progress album for now. The sturdy aluminium frame of the sliding door: The drawers c/w locks and the aluminium poles ...
  18. My $$$ tree is going to die liao....because it was neglected for the past 2 months when we moved out to make way for renovation, I placed it along the corridor and it is collecting dust due to lift upgrading in progress!!
  19. I have seen some houses with doors tilted and making it worst - facing the 'wall corners' of exterior walls or interior sharp wall corners!!
  20. This picture is taken from my main door, and you see the pipes exposed along the common corridor? The pipes are beside our 2nd entrance....and the most I can do is to place that potted plant there!!
  21. This is my reno t-blog topic... http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?sh...5996&st=689
  22. When it comes to sound systems, I'm really a noob here. Wanted to get the Philips blu Ray sound bar, but not sure what else I need to get to have a complete sound system for a decent home entertainment. Sighzzzz
  23. Hi, nat0206 Thank you for reading my blog. I will send you the requested information tomorrow morning.
  24. Hi, Ed Nice to see you here I think my electrician charged me ard $100 to program the remote control lightings for my MBR, including the control device you have seen. Let me retrieve my electrical installation bill to reconfirm.
