  1. Hi All! Thank you for your suggestions! My ID/hubby and I did conceive some of the ideas suggested. 1. Dining area as masterchef-island-top. We scrap this idea as we - we do quite a bit of entertaining so we have to have a dinng area. - Having a fix component like an island top will mean that we wont have the flexibility to change designs. 2. swing out glass door - Yes. The door actually gonna be a 'butterfly' door. Just that He didnt add that in the drawing. hehehe.. (i was to kanjiong to post, So I posted the latest version that I have, couldnt wait for him to finish adding some details.) 3. Bedroom 2 - Aya, May_dream1 you are right. I didn’t want to change it from the orginal position but we consulted a Feng Shui master n he said to move the door to the other end so both doors wont be facing each other. This one I cannot argue  4. Masterbed toilet. - Because we are putting a swing door, we cannot have the basin at its original place and there is no where else to put as our toilet is quite small. So we just want to shift the basin out and it can be a vanity top for me. 5. Balcony - We are going to have a bar counter there! BUT... as our unit is door to door and there will be lift upgrading. There will be a new door where the balcony is, leading to the lift. We don’t know exactly where that door is (right at the corner or nearer to the living room area) so we are leaving the counter out of the picture at the moment.
  2. I seem to be spamming my own blog. Hahah.. anyway, as you can see, the condition of this flat is very good. But, its not what we like, so we have discussed what we want and this is the revised floorplan. Floorplan (after hacking some walls) We decided to change the masterbed room to bedroom 1. Because the master window overlooks the carpark while bedroom 1,2 and balcony looks towards the greenery and river. Also, we remove the storeroom so as to link bedroom 1 to the master toilet. this will become my wardrobe!! The remaining orginal master will be his office. The other wall we hack is the one infront of the main door and between the main door and kitchen. As our kitchen is long, and i really want to have a more open kitchen ala masterchef style, he plan it this way to make it bigger. Floorplan in detail I will post our inspiration soon. Any comments from our fellow forumers?

  9. Life works in a wonderful way sometimes. Its funny how am I actually starting a T-blog here when all I wanted (when I joined renotalk) was to research on contractors for my parents home. The contractor/tiler that I engaged was did an excellent job and we hired her for a few more jobs. That was when I met my fiance! He was the son of the auntie contractor. Well, we met, he did some projects and we fell for each other. Hahahaha... to cut a long story short, we are engaged and is starting renovating our own home! *yippy* Ok, shant bore everyone (if there is anyone at all.) Mine house is a resale 5 room flat. Its about 30 yrs old. ID firm: My hubby's company of cos! Custom Box Got keys: 30th April 2012 Reno start date: 27 June 2012

  13. Hi guys, I stay in a mansionette and my bathroom is leaking. The plaster of ceiling below the bathroom is coming off. I think the bathroom floor is not properly done by the previous owner. The leak n the falling plaster/paint is a pain to see!! Gosh! Can anyone advise wat to do? Thanks in advance!
  14. U mean, u are gg to have a 5th storey? Pardon me if im wrong but isnt there a regulation on the maximum height of a house?
  15. Anyone here knows where to get those heavy curtain? the very victorian kind? (some hotels use those.) Anyone have those? Is it hard to clean? TIA!
  16. I know of one husband and wife team. They do the tiling themselve, maybe slower then other companies that use more workers, but the quality is excellent (the auntie is a perfectionist!). Maybe you can consider them if you wan a job well done They have been praised a few times in the forum before. PM me if u need info - jus sharing the gd stuff
