New Entry: Blog Entry Date: 8th July 2017 Saturday Made a first time recee down to Luxury Bath & Lightings Pte Ltd to check out the prices and eyeball what I think I'd want so I wouldn't waste too much time on actual day meetup with ID to choose. Some items I feel are way too expensive, and I will probably buy from elsewhere.

Thanks bro. Haven't meet up yet, that'll be later. Still need to be wary that he can still deliver the real thing, But yea with the 3D drawings, my fears are at least somewhat subsided. I have to commend him for a good job, personally i like what i'm seeing.

Thanks lol its not rendered unfortunately, but it isn't a biggie because the only thing i have there is a cove lighting. Everything in Living Room is either bought off shelf, even tiles is by HDB. At the next meeting with Jason, i'll check with him if i can get a render of it. For now, just imagine this with a Cove Lighting ba

Thanks Rufus. Yea i'm gonna have a serious talk with Jason about this. (I wonder if they read this blog lol, i told him I will be blogging tho) Actually throughout the entire time I had with them, Aida never contributed anything, it was only Jason and me discussing so at least it still isn't so bad. (I suspect she was understudy or something) Still, this incident does make me worried if Jason himself will go AWOL. Have to see how the next meetup will be like.

Thanks guys for all your advices. Hmm...it does make sense that ID may bring clients to new company hence the silence. Maybe i'm overthinking it. Sigh. I'm still very comfortable with Jason handling my project because of my good rapport with him and honestly i'm abit tired of going thru the process of hunting a new ID all over again who may or may not do the same thing. Looking for ID is indeed a stressful thing lol...

Thanks for your reply All along I trust Jason because he has had very good rapport with me and is the only person i was conversing with. But yea, I feel the trust is now quite eroded due to this incident. He'll have to regain the trust again. I suppose I can't blame him since he's not the person who left, but as a Manager, shouldn't be like this right? Sigh...here i was thinking why not just handsfree let them do their thing i dun disturb them. I guess IDs really must push and push then they'll respond. Policy to restrict her informing client that she's exiting the project? Thats a very strange policy if you tell me. Wouldn't it be better to be honest to the client then keep client in the dark? Is this practised by all Interior Companies?

At least yours left after your reno was done. Although my key collection is still at least 2 months away, I'm now very worried that if the project start, it may get abandoned halfway... Actually all along I have been talking only to the main ID which is Jason instead of Aida, and he assured me that he is taking the job himself. I still feel is a lack of integrity to not say anything and for Aida to just suddenly leave like that. I think for now the trust is seriously breached. Anyway Im giving Jason until next Monday to provide my 3D drawings or any other meetings needed. If still need to push I think I might need to find another ID. Sigh...for no reason $500 gone like dat. ============================================ BTW for everyone else, please be very careful if you engage an Malay Lady ID called Aida. Her mobile number is (9***5609) She may be now in another Interior Company now that she has left 96 Degree Designers. Very irresponsible, just leave without informing anything.

Thanks for visiting! I'll definitely update as often as I can. Because I haven't even got my keys yet, updates are coming slower. Once I've gotten my keys, (assuming July-August 2017) I'm pretty sure updates will be more regular. Thanks again for visiting!

Ohhh lol. ok la just careful abit can liao lor. Splash splash abit is fine for me. For me, the little splashing it will do doesn't warrant building an entire shower closet. Having a makeshift pole, like the one u did for your living room to hang your laundry hang a shower curtain would be good enuff too. -

RyanYTH replied to mmoh's topic in RENOVATION IDEAS: Interior Design Themes, Space Planning
Actually yes I do want to split my wet and dry area. My wet area will be actually lower then my dry area and to reach it u need to do a small step down. This is my way of keeping water in wet area never able to reach the dry area when i shower. Here is what I mean: (I amended the textures and changed the colours to make it slightly easier to see) Green area is my Dry Area and this is a slightly raised platform. (maybe about 1 inch or so in height) Red area is my Wet Area which is slightly lower in order to trap the water to be able to drain away when I shower. The small little blue between them is the height difference between the 2 areas. Hope this clarifies better. -
Oh maybe I phrase wrongly. I dun mean clothesline as in a line. I was referring if there is a smaller version of the ceiling retractable one that hdb gave.

RyanYTH replied to mmoh's topic in RENOVATION IDEAS: Interior Design Themes, Space Planning
I dun see why there is a need to block water to WC area? In fact the position of my current WC is same as my future apartment right next to the shower area and i find it even more convenient cause i can just aim showerhead at the WC to clean and wash it if i want. Are u worried that the water will make the seating area wet when want to do business? A simple wipe down with tissue paper will do. And anyway where my shower is positioned, I won't get the WC wet unless I purposely spray it directly. -
I never sun dry my clothes. They are all indoor air dry. The best is if there is some sort of half sized retractable clothesline that would be great. I normally immediately put clothes into hangars then hang them up, so when they are dry I can just take them down and one shot put in wardrobe. Installing a makeshift pole is a clever idea but...do I really want my living room to be lined with a row of laundry covering the window?

Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for visiting my blog The contraption u recommend look very strange. Looks more like a heater then something to do with laundry tbh and i have no idea how it works. Looks like its more for oudoor? but it is still interesting to see such a thing available tho. Cordage with hooks is an idea but I have no idea if my kitchen got space to hang or not. I guess I was hoping someone makes a half size retractable laundry rack or something perhaps?

My apartment is exactly the same as yours. If you've seen my 3D design in 5D planner, my Toilet is vertically divided in half instead of your horizontal to accommodate for wet and dry area. (Wet area is lower consists of shower area and toilet bowl / Dry area is raised higher consists of the sink) To prevent water splashing the sink with my future vanity mirror, I put a plane of glass. Below is how it is. Jus imagine the wet area is abit lower. Anyway, whichever u go for, I highly dun recommend putting a box up shower screen like the below pic if you are thinking of doing it. I have a friend who did that and it was a tremendous hassle to clean. If dun clean often as time goes by easily grow mold and algae within the nooks and crevices very disgusting. There is also a tendency sometimes when showering accidentally knock the shower head against the glass panel. Also, toilet itself already small, why enclose yourself even more in a small glass box? -
You're welcome Rufus Yea I breath a sigh of relief too when there were no tracks on the floor compared to hdb's own showroom the last I was there. The wall or beam at the ceiling between bedroom and living room would be perfect to install 2 aircons with each aircon blowing each side. Kitchen wise is true is really small. I'm worried my design will be cramp but somehow my ID jason say it's workable but I do need to remove the laundry rack. Man I still wanna keep the rack tho and I'm not keen to put a laundry rack outside my apartment to dry my clothes. Any good alternatives to hang laundry indoor other then getting a electric clothes dryer?

HDB didnt invite u to any event during the time u were waiting for your flat ma? I thought this was standard procedure for all estates. Anyway is nothing one, just MP come here smile smile and give away free umbrella only. Most of the info there already within that brochure they gave when u first apply for the flat. Ya I also notice the ground got no door track heng. But sian the small wall and sliding door that I wanna hack away got electrical outlets. While ID say still can hack away, I'm guessing rewiring will add more money. Thanks for the suggestion! If there is a new blog entry I'll post a reply. Yea this is one of the side effect of trying to have all the blog entries in one readable go and I also not sure if I allocated enuff for future posts too considering I haven't get key yet lol! Eventually after all is finish, I'll also put a "table of contents" at first page to help navigate better too.

Was there no space to put an end-table at a corner to put a table fan now that you put a Super Single bed? But its ok lah, as long as you are comfortable with wall fan can lor. I just find wall fan very...80s looking -

RyanYTH replied to mmoh's topic in RENOVATION IDEAS: Interior Design Themes, Space Planning
Hmm..I noticed in many of your space considerations, that having a big walking space is a very important element for you, and this seems to override even decision to choose a Super Single Bed over a Queen Bed (other then the other issue of hard to change bedsheet) -

RyanYTH replied to mmoh's topic in RENOVATION IDEAS: Interior Design Themes, Space Planning
I like how the shelves make use of the recessed wall to have a "layering" look. Not too keen on having a wall mounted fan though. Seems like would be hard to clean and can't remove easily if wanna change. -
Nope electrical appliances aren't factored in the 25k. I budget 10k for that. Furniture is also separately budgeted at another 10k I'm guessing ill probably not use up the whole budget I set but I thought I'd just put extra aside just in case. My links do allow 3D view. You need to click on the icon on the right panel that says "3D". Is there anyone else who is unable to see the 3D view in my 3D design in 5D planner? Do let me know, I'll probably do a screenshot or something for folks who are unable to access. You're lucky u got a 47sqm. However, based on your reply in the other 2 room thread... I'm ... not sure if a 2 room flat is a good choice for you though. No offence, but your infamous quote categorizing 2 roomers being "mishapen and twisted individuals" ruffled more than a few feathers... Maybe u want to give up your 2 room and give other 2 roomers a chance and consider buying a resale 3 room or even a much bigger resale 4 room instead? Just saying.
