Mirror Mirror On The Wall
from my personal experience, positioning mirrors that conforms to FS are very tricky. cannot face main door, cannot face window, preferably one big piece. must be very careful as mirror 'absorbs', so must ensure cannot face the wrong thing.

Mirror Mirror On The Wall
i think it is important to know what is reflected on the mirror. ie. was told that it is not ideal to have 2 adjoining mirror in front of a dinning table. cos the image of the dining table on the mirror is actually split (signifies broken family??)

Citygas Or Cylinder?
definitely citygas. cleaner, no need to worry abt gas leak plus non-stop supply of gas 4-5days of cooking is considered heavy usage by today's standard. sometimes the rusty cylinder dirty the floor tiles.

2 Unrelated Person Buying A Condo
no prob for two unreleated persons buy private properties. if one of u own a HDB, within 5years MUP cannot buy private prop. if either one own a HDB, then property tax will be 10% (instead of 4% for owner staying). u need to chk out CPF rulings too (ie. if already using CPF for one property, need to set aside minimum sum in the CPF a/c, before it can be used for 2nd house). U two need to decide manners of holding (joint tenants or tenants-in-common). basically if two of u do not own any property, no major issues. if u do not use CPF, even less issue.

Induction Cooking Or Cylinder Gas ?
u must buy appropriate pots + check that yr power point supporting the stove can provide sufficient power . I think it is 16 AMP for 2 induction and 32AMP for 4 induction hobs (to confirm with yr supplier). the area around the induction hob is resist up to 100degree or something like that..

West Facing Rooms- Very/too Hot?
i stayed at mum's plce for 20+ years before I moved out. her place is W-E direction too. kitchen faces east and living room + common rooms faces west . the only good thing is that clothes can be air dried within a few hours. we hang clothes around the windows to keep the glare out, so in fact our house is darker than those NS houses. we cannot take a nap in the afternoon too.
