KFC1189 replied to fingerscross's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat - HDB Resale Renovation & Interior DesignHi Fingerscross, do you have a floor plan of your resale condo? A floor plan is good for visualization and understanding.

KFC1189 replied to Clarence Lye's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat - HDB BTO Interior Design and RenovationHi Clarence, Your platform bed has storage under the bed, right? How do you access those storage under the bed? Do you need to lift the mattress up first and then open the storage cover plank? isn't this too troublesome? Also I think if you have a king size bed, there is not enough space to get in and out of the bed. You will need to crawl in and out. Do think for your wife when she is pregnant, she will have difficulty getting in and out of the bed. Perhaps a queen size bed is a better option.

KFC1189 replied to infatuation1527's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat - HDB BTO Interior Design and RenovationHi, I like your standalone wash basins too. Are there any shelves where you can keep your toothbrush, toothpaste, etc?

As the old drying rack on the ceiling has been removed, I installed a foldaway drying rack in the kitchen. This drying rack has a total length 4.2m of clothes hanging line. But it is not strong enough to hold heavy clothes like wet jeans. Do take note that kitchen windows have been changed to Bestview windows with invisible grille to bring in more sunlight.

KFC1189 replied to cybergreen's topic in Renovation Contractors, Interior Designers & Suppliers ReviewsHi Cybergreen, It is really a nightmare having to deal with these types of ID and carpenter. Please share. Sometimes, it is worth paying more to have a peace of mind.

Hi ilkl, You have a very impressive home. Well done! I like your vertical garden wall a lot. It really brings nature to your home. May I know what maintenance efforts are required (daily, weekly, and monthly)? Can you choose herbs for planting so that you can eat them as well? How much is the routine maintenance fees?

KFC1189 replied to Ohwowitsmac's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat - HDB Resale Renovation & Interior DesignHi Ohwowitsmac, Your apartment is very nicely done. I could not view your floor plan anymore. Could you please check the link. Thanks.

Hi fifteenmay, Very nice and big home indeed. Your two girls are lucky to have plenty of space to play in. The marble floor is original from the previous owner, right?
-
Wow, 50 years old house! Is it a freehold house? What is the land area?

Hi, I own a big corner terrace too. I think it is best to engage an architect or a builder to provide you with a quotation after a survey is done.

Hi, I like your narrow pull out drawers. They are very practical. I have 2 integrated dish-drawers from F&P as well in my kitchen. The bottom one has a different configuration and can accommodate big pots and frying pan. Both dish-drawers can operate independently. I like them too.

The fold down mirror in the dressing table is just for make up of the face only. There is a full length mirror inside my wife's WIW.

Hi 15May, I really like the design of your feature wall which incorporated with so much storage space. This is a very practical yet nice looking feature of your place. I am curious why didn't you engage a PE to remove the beam which I did when I removed the sliding glass doors in my own balcony. Is the middle niche an altar? The shoe racks are on the left, right?

I faced the same feng shui problem in my master bedroom as well and there is no other place to put my wife's dressing table except the bed is facing the mirror. My ID managed to solve this problem by using the following design: When the mirror is folded down: When the mirror is open, LED light at both sides will automatically turn on:

Hi, please be cautioned that a mirror facing the bed is considered bad fengshui. This is because it depletes your personal energy when you need it the most: at nighttime when your body does its repair work. A mirror facing your bed is also said to bring the energy of the third party into your intimate relationship. If you don't mind, I guess it is ok.

Hi, congratulations to you for having a spacious apartment with 4 good sized bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Where is the location of your 3G flat?
-
Wow, I like your view. It really made me envious. Where is this place of yours?
-
You will be surprised that many contractors don't refer to the latest guidelines and still think of the old way. My own contractor did not know it either until I told him about the latest guidelines. So my resale flat does have two condensing units one at master bedroom window and the second one at study room window. I believe HDB has updated this guidelines quite recently because in the past only one condensing unit is allowed.
-
Some ignorant contractors may not know that a resale HDB flat can have 2 condensing units installed and give you the wrong advice. Please refer to HDB air con installation guidelines as follows: http://www.hdb.gov.sg/cs/infoweb/residential/living-in-an-hdb-flat/renovation/guidelines/air-conditioner-installation-works#.WNp6WBjrwDg.gmail

Actually, HDB allows two air-con compressors even for a resale flat. But both compressors cannot be installed on the same wall outside of a window. So you can have one compressor outside the window of master bedroom and the second compressor installed outside of study room window. For BTO flats with air-con ledge, both compressors must be installed there.
-
Hi hwaa, I saw an air-con compressor in your service yard. Why didn't you install it outside of a window? By the way, I like your bathroom wall tiles too.

The original WIW looks really good and more logical than your proposed WIW. You should keep it so that you can have a King sized bed in the master bedroom as well.

Please post your floor plan so that we can visualise your renovation better. Is it an ea? What is your floor area?
