Wa, SMEG fridge! I'm looking fwd to seeing how you "zng" the kopitiam chairs, they are in really good condition! Btw, just curious, why did u order this Moen brand accessories? I'm looking for toilet roll holder too

Yes, something like this What kinda reflective surface laminate for cabinet? u mean metallic type?

:bleah:

How nice if your flooring is green terrazzo instead of broken marble! The current one looks very vintagey. Are you going for more retro feel or industrial theme?

Hi Mangoo, may I know where did you see this fan in Malaysia? Is it this address - Ho Seh Lightings / 47, Jalan Rosmerah 2/10, Taman Johor Jaya, 81100 Johor Bahru, Johor ? Any idea if the fan can oscillate up down or left right? Would love to get one for my home if it fits my budget. Thanks for your help!

Thanks! Will go check it out. I was looking for vento fino replica on TB but to no avail... Only found one which is freaking ex as well.

Yes, totally! I asked the lady why so ex, she says cos is designer series. Win liao lor Gal, check your PM ok

Went down our place after work tonight to see how well-lit current lights is. We wanna change all the downlights to new ones, and add on a few lights at selected areas. How do u all gauge how many downlights and what wattage are sufficient ah? And hacking starts tomorrow!

Congrats on getting keys! I am looking forward to the reno process too! Hacking starts tomorrow! Vento Fino is cute but price is not! Amasco quoted me $488 I may go for a retro looking table fan instead, place it on ikea step stool, me think will look quite nice but not sure if the fan power is strong enough when placed near my bookshelves.

Thanks! No leh, it's resale condo, the carpentry is not in the best condition and design of kitchen is very outdated, so I changing all carpentry stuff except bathrooms!

So door will be more effective compared to curtain right? I don't have the habit of using air-con when I sleep, only need it when I put makeup in the morning

I will be creating a doorway between my master bedroom and walk-in wardrobe to join them together. Both rooms are separate currently and there is air-con in each room. I am concerned about air-con "spilling" over to the other room if I were to on one of the air-cons. If I use a curtain as some sort of door at the doorway, can this effectively prevent the air-con "spillover" effect?

How does Ikea curtain work? Do they come in standard length and width, or can it be customised?

Z3phy, I also thinking of doing rainbow blind! Such blind and roller kind should be easy to clean right, just vacuum?

Sounds great, I will go check it out then! What light bulbs is the fan using ah? LED?

Yes, will place the dining bench into the recessed area of that wall on the left! My table is not very big la, 140 x 90. I really like that fan! But must go see the real thing first. Sekali it's very ex, then no need think about it liao

Using the red caged lamps. Hmm... actually i feel the space is quite big leh. Bookshelves are very shallow to begin with. That wall fan is actually quite small, 330cm wide x 440cm height incl rod. Er... if not wall mounted fan, I have to place a floor standing fan somewhere cos I don't wanna on aircon everytime I eat

I am not renovating my bathrooms, no budget The bathroom cabinets are normal plywood lor, no sign of rotting so far. I think plywood should be fine lah, my current place one also wood and we stay here for 10 years since our last reno. Or u can go see those sink and cabinet combined kinda design when u go jln besar this weekend. Not sure what material though.

Oh yeah!

Er, stainless steel may rust if the grade of SS is no good. U asking your carpenter to build cabinets in your bathroom or u buying? How come don't wanna use normal plywood?

Finally went down our place today, in daytime when there's plenty of natural light of course Utilities uncle came down too cos we used express service. Hehe. Ok guys, need some help / suggestions here! I intend to place a bench and dining table parallel and close to the wall on the left, right beside the kitchen. So will move the pendant lighting point further to the left from its current position. Opposite the dining table where the mirror is now, I will have two book shelves placed here. I will have 3 pendant lights over the dining table and either downlights or tracklights shining at the book shelves. Our contractor says there is no space for ceiling fan in the dining area. So am considering to install Vento Fino wall-mount fan somewhere above the dining bench, perhaps at the corner where the beam meets the wall behind dining bench. What do u guys think of this arrangement? Is the ceiling too messy? I thought the Vento Fino looks pretty cool and will blend in with the overall look of our dining table. If I use tracklight instead of downlight on the ceiling in front of book shelves, does this add to the clutter?

Cos me is 胆小鬼 and very dark mah! lol.

What fan model is this? Can I check if the fan light is strong enough to lit the room if you don't switch on other lights? I'm thinking of getting this for study room, but my contractor says such design may not be bright enough and suggested me to buy those fan with 3 separate lights but I prefer simpler design. Thanks in advance!

Based on my limited knowledge, both are quite different. Built-in oven usually gives a more stable temperature n there is usually a fan to assist in heat circulation, so things are baked/grilled more evenly --> better texture, won't be one side darker than the other side. I have been using table top oven and can't wait to ditch it for a built-in one! Perhaps can share more about what do u intend to use your oven for? If u are tight on budget, only intend to use oven for very simple things and need a microwave, can consider buying a microwave and oven toaster first (those super simple n small kind). Once u have more cash on hand, can then invest in a table top oven.

Thanks for the compliments! I don't intend to touch up the lamp, i like its current cui look! Got the keys and went down our place after work today. As expected there is no electricity, so we use our hp flash light as we walk around. But just had a short "walk" in living room and kitchen, scaredy cat me don't dare to venture further, got out asap. Will meet our contractor there tomorrow
