Will start posting the renovation process pics...but gotta finish my work stuff first... thanx for the info...will check it out later...

yup itz a good idea...but i scared too much white later on become too much beige down the road haha...some more the kitchen wall tiles also white in colour. i kinda like contrast..datz y the colour combo. black counter top my wife dun like also... when initially i suggested black counter top >>> haha. thank u. yup i will post the pics

Wow, you have sharp eyes. I would definately have missed that. The rose tile from SBH right? SBH tiles are so much nicer..

Oh...yes yes itz the same....3 room at corridor and 4 room at corner. Think your cousin really lives close to me..

Hello applefreak.... Yes yes...itz totally so exciting. Itz tiring also...looking at magazines...looking at renotalk...deciding what we really want...the look and feel of the house is important to me. Not my wife though...she prefers it bright and functional and easy to clean...while im the vain one haha. So in the end itz a mixture of both. Hmmm....maybe your cousin is the other side of the corridor...corner unit right? The 3d drawings from the ID...not finalised yet..some colour changes here and there + +... The living room, with mirror feature at dining area... Not gonna use the ceiling light design in the picture. Any recommendations anyone? Simple living room with simple tv feature wall. See the door? Not gonna use that as well...itz gonna be all walnut colour with metal strip for the actual thing. The Kitchen Black and white...my idea The kitchen floor tiles I chose is not very black. Actually i wanted like super duper black for kitchen floor tiles...but when we were at white horse dunno **** eye or what go and chose one that is like black/greyish one. Since itz my fault and i only discovered it when it was already delivered... i figured bo chap lah..the light black/dark greyish also goes with the design above...or not huh?

The floorplan

Thanx! in fact im waiting for the uploading to be done at photobucket...duno why so slow today... This is really a nice forum. Never saw so many friendly people and good advise in other forums. I learnt quite abit from reading through this forum b4 my reno started...

Hi all...itz the 8th day of our renovation today...making good progress...so far no complains. Our 4ng is at AMK ave 10...we bought the resale flat in early feb this year. My wife wanted the contractor who renovated her parents' flat back in year 2000....on grounds that he is very trustworthy. The company that the contractor used to work in is no longer around, and he is currently part boss(i think) of Home Concepts Interior and Design. Very nice guy...very experienced...and some say very expensive haha...but i find ok leh. The stuff that he thought we din need he would tell us to save our money. I have also seen my wife's parent's house..and the cabinetry is good. Design wise I had to put in more ideas...because our ID/contractor is "lau jiang hu" so sometimes the ideas provided by him i personally find abit obiang...but he's really flexible..and i like flexibility. Man i must say renovating a house is sure an exciting experience. Imagining what you want for your house then visualize it..and then wonder how it would turn out...spending more money then i have ever now...but the thought of the ideas being conceptionalise sure is good. Will post the pics of the house in original condition in awhile.

thanx for the info...

****...i always miss out on all these stuff....

Oh is there an exhibition there? When is it till? sori...i sidetracked...

juz came back from Causeway point..went to Mayer there. I had actually wanted to buy their combo set of hob hood and oven...tried to make some enquiries from the sales staff...only manage to ask 2 questions about their combo set...dun seem to enthusiatic to do my business...talk to me like sian sian like dat... Me: So can you tell me more about the combo that Mayer is having on? Sales staff: Oh...we all along have one what. Me: i look look see see for awhile and i turn around wanting more details from them...only to find the sales staff returning to the counter to talk with his other colleague...tried to make eye contact but to no avail...got pissed and walk out of Mayer. Don't think i wanna buy from them liao... Maybe i was dressed in berms and slippers? Am I suppose to go over to him and beg him for more info? Anyway...anyone bought the Franke ovens? So Brandt is good huh....
