Countertop up as well as kitchen cabinet door knobs installed. Upper row Drawer handles not yet installed. My Bling Bling countertop. It has some kind of jewel like sparkle to it which the phone camera was not able to capture. From far it looks like a black polished granite top. The original position of the hob I initially designed it to be vertically positioned. Then dorothy pointed out that I will have a problem with cooking with a larger diameter Wok/pan as it would interfere with the wall.... looking back at my design, yeah I didnt cater space for that. Obviously i don't cook. .. but on the side of practicality, it was switched around to be horizontally positioned. The immediate picture here isn't really correct, the hob should be rotated180degs, I made sure my larger wok has sufficient space. The next close up picture is the correct position.. Correct position for Hob with larger diameter position at the outside edge of the countertop. A close up of the sink area. Manage to capture the blueish purplish sparkle on the bottom right of the image. So... you can only see sparkle on the phone when it is out of focus... Super bling. Almost went for black galaxy granite, no regrets with this choice.

For feature wall you'll need it in without cuts in 1 big slab form to look nice... Go Soon bee Huat 2nd floor you can see some really nice ones.

I like the 1st one. Looks as if the stairs are floating on air

Your Uniarm is from kelvin? I tried contacting them, call but no one picks up. Sms to ask for callback but never return call... Business too good.

Does that have a gloss look? Can't see clearly on mobile. Was thinking of using the Nippon borduex(spelling?) paint used for wood skirting. Yeah I'm concerned on streaking too. As my skirting had streaks even when done by painters!

I did the opposite of 1... On purpose though. Don't want to bang my head onto the chimney as the hob was at the edge of the worktop

Installation of the heater tank alone and running the control cable is included by Aosmith. These were done by Aosmith. However piping has extra cost. It was done by my own contractor as it was already included as part of my Reno contract.

are your cabinet doors spray painted? Was it difficult? I'm looking to have some of mine sprayed as some of the off the ikea wood panels didn't come out as I envisioned so I Intend to spray them glossy white.

I meant the backsplash glass color. It's actually painted at the rear side. I just go into Nippon website choose a color and provide the color code and they have it painted before installing.

This post is on Countertop choices. Initially i wanted black galaxy granite. So I paid a visit to Lian Hin and brought a drawer front to match color to it. I found some not so commonly used granite such as emerald pearl and Blue pearl which also looks quite nice. Some close ups Black Galaxy Granite - Does not look as fantastic as the big slab in SBH showroom which has deep glossy black with large gold flecks. unfortunately SBH's granite only sell in big slab so there is large wastage... so i decided to drop this. Took a look at the other granites. Emerald Pearl Granite.. Pearl reflections very nice if you have spotlight to shine on it (I do! ) Does not look so nice without lights. Blue Pearl Granite under cool and warm lighting. Was deciding between these 2 until I went to browse at quartz range. Actually to me I still prefer granite as it is more natural but my commanding officer saw it(Ocean) and . Seriously the one on the wall looks real good, but the Ocean sample on the table does not look as good. Huge difference here so I'm concerned on consistency. Lian Hin staff told me it may not always look like the one on the wall and different batches may had a different look which they have no control over... Anyway with these in mind i spoke to Dorothy and told her i'm considering black galaxy(but not Lian Hin's one as i need something with more gold specs and also like Lian Hin's Ocean Quartz). She found a supplier for granite called Bellus which I found their sample for black galaxy granite to be close to what I wanted but eventually as to accommodate the wishes of my CO, in the end I selected Ocean Quartz. I highlighted the quality consistency concern and she went and got me larger sample cut from the same batch to see if that is what i wanted, and if i were to make an order it would be from that batch. Cost is somewhat higher than granite but she also absorbed the difference. here's how it looked like against my kitchen wall tile. It had those blueish purplish specks in it which hopefully will match my glass backsplash color. Really nice if you have warm lighting. My backsplash color that I selected. Can you guys see what color is this? On my laptop it looks blue, on Iphone it looks purple. Hopefully it dont turn out too obiang. http://www.nipponpaint.com.sg/colours/colour-paint-chart/colour-creations/PB/1668/skylights-np-pb-1489-p/

Kitchen cabinets works. With solid plywood carcass customed to ikea door/drawer fronts. Its the first time the carpenter is doing this. They were initially quite worried at first but so far it turns out quite okay... so far. Drawers tracks are from maximera range which is actually Blum tandembox plus. So its full blum tracks, hinges/dampers. I intend to run cove lighting at the top of the cabinet, so the top gap filler is taller and also recessed. the LED strip will be hidden by the upper cornice. The bottom cornice color is abit different compared to the rest. Seems to look whiter compared to the doors. Will get this switched out.
