You can make full use of the open space by hanging yr TV on a pole so that you can turn around watching when in living room or in bed. If not putting the TV in the center is like a bit wasted for the open space. For me, I will mount the TV on the living room wall and place my sofa in the partition area. Like that both my bed and sofa is facing the TV and I can fully enjoy the open space created.

I installed storage heater. It is not inside my false wall. it was installed on the wall above my toilet door that linked to the hot/cold water outlets. No one will ever advise you to hide your heater ( instant or storage) inside a false wall. Leakage and maintainace is a big problem. Don't do that! I stay at top floor. I don't have a ceiling fan but I don't mind installing it in future. Don't worry about things from hearsay only. If you need one just go do it.

You definitely need to extend the pipes from the original basin outlets to your waist height for shower mixer. Build a false wall to cover up the extension pipes are the only way to make it look neat. If not, go for raw toilet look with pipes exposed!

Not at all! Purposely did that height so that I can wash my hair in the basin!

I did not hack my wall. I build a false wall to cover up the pipes. I think it's necessary if you don't want exposed pipings.

I changed my toilet basin and shower position too. Initially, I was shocked that my contractor told me it will cost additional few hundred dollars to build a false wall in order to install a counter top and a tap on it. I was not willing to spend additional money for that considering that I have already spend thousands to overlay my toilet walls. So I crack my head and finally found a wall mounted basin tap that looks quite cool that also goes well with my counter top basin.
Yup. It's awesome even the fact that I got it as a gift! Amazing performance!yeah. smart right?It's not a door. It's a fixed opaque glass panel.I installed a glass door for $350 instead. Cheaper than building a concrete wall. Hope this help.
Relocation of shower and basin area so need to dismantle and buy new pipes. Yes stainless steel. The cost of pipes is very cheap. Taobao one less than $10.My build in wardrobe cost $2080. The fridge is in the below pic.
Running aircon pipes for 2 room is very stright forward. The space so small so only limited options to lay pipes. My pipes are all directly above door frames. I am too lazy to take photos. Haha.No, the door is there. iQuartz. Relocation is needed. Simple but quite ex. 1 only la.I installed frosted glass. Fish tank shower concept. Not high coz I am tall.
