Hi, I didn't know that such a rule exist. Our helper's room door is opening into the kitchen. If you decide to stick to the original design, maybe you can let the HDB officer know that you will just use it as an utility/study room. For safety purpose, you just have to make sure your helper has a set of keys to slide open the window grilles when there is a real fire.

We used Helping Hands for our move. Reasonably priced, fast and good. And they are located very close to your new place. You can call them down to your current place to get a quote.

Good, another B&W house. Will stay tuned for your progress. My sis has the same exact layout in SK. Yes, the living room is spacious which is good, especially when you have kids to run around or hosts house parties with many guests. Bedroom 2 can comfortably fit two singles, and Bedroom 3 one single and study table.

PM-ed.

I bought my wooden blinds from him. He charges in SGD now and remember to haggle as I am sure his prices have inflated with all the business he his getting thru' RT.

The black-white blinds gives the extra chill-out vibe to the balcony area. Please also let me know where you got them from.

Hi blackainmamba, My kitchen cabinet doors, like the rest of my carpentry, uses plywood. It was spray painted for effect. You are right, it is more prone to chipping compared to laminates. The carpenter had to fill over the chipped areas after the cabinets were installed. Just make sure they leave you with some of the filler powder for future damage control.

Love the patterns ...

Hi potatoes, here are the etsy links where I got the decals. Children Room Wall decal Laundry Room decal

Hi Emma, I have PM-ed you

Hi Vanessa, my ID got them from Hup Kiong (Defu) for $6.50 psf (before GST).

Hi Sevano, PM-ed. Hi Ketua, here is a full view of the glass door. There is another piece of fixed glass panel that sits on top of the kitchen counter.

hi texas5, I'm not using HERF at the main door. I'm using tiles for the foyer area. But here is a pic of what it may look like. You can paste a strip vertically and the cap goes over it. Best get your ID/contractor to talk to the Evorich salesperson and get them to advise what is recommended for the main door.

Hi Anna, my ID got the window contractor to fabricate the bi-fold louvre door. I could not find any suppliers selling such doors either when I was doing research. However if you do not mind a PD type (slide and swing) louvre door, you can check them out on the pddoor website.

Hi TWTOwner, Your layout looks interesting. Is the kitchen originally open-concept? Nice 3Ds. Can't wait to see the bunk bed.

Hi texas5, the sofa was selling for abt $2300. The measurements are 2m wide and 0.9m depth. Thanks patatoes. The decorating part was very haphazard but the furnishing was inspired by the many RT blogs out there.

try calling them to check before going down. they carry limited pieces. they were the first place I looked for the wooden top stools, but they had run out of them in April .

The sofa was listed at $2300 and we got 5% off.

Nice black & white tiles. Looks like you will have a mix of retro styles thru out your house. Btw, you can post larger photos on your blog by choosing a specific size for your flickr photo, copy image address and pasting the link into the 'Image' window. I am using flickr too and got it right after some trials.

thanks. hope it stays that way. it will be hard maintaining the way it looks now.

Thanks. My two girls love their beds, especially the climbing bit. Now our bed time stories can involve the animal decals on the wall or imagine that they are high up on the tower on their beds.

I bought mine from this TB seller http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09.5.0.40.Zq39Af&id=4560375448

Thanks! Your reno is turning out well too. Can't wait to see it all come together.

Check with your ID whether he can get discounts from Comfort. We found that out too late. We were happily telling our ID about our purchases from Comfort when she said that she could have gotten discounts for us if she knew we were going there.
