    Hi Joywalker, did you eventually have a door for your wet dry zone?

    I'm thinking of doing a simple screen like that but not sure if the water will splash out too much

    Hey, I’ve finally moved in last Oct and finally using my shower!

    Water do splash out to the floor (along the curb) but it wasn’t that much. I just mop it away or just let it dry on its own if I’m too lazy to mop. The area around the toilet bowl is still dry.😬

    @JOYWALKER did you overlay your bathroom? I'm thinking of getting my ID to one some thing like that.

    so after installing the smart curtain, was your room cool when you turn on the aircon? where did you get it in Singapore.

    @Rivervale shore

    Hi , sorry for the late reply. 
    Yes, the bathroom tiles are overlay.

    As for the smart curtains, I hardly used them anymore. Only used it when my mom stayed over, to block the living room’s lightings when she sleeps. The electricity bills is surprisingly not that high when I switched on both Aircons every night, cooling the rooms before I sleep.😬

    The company that did my curtains is called Unique Zone. They were introduced to me by my ID.😀

    I'm not sure to get a Queen size bed or not as I don't move much when sleeping and currently I'm just sleeping on a super single bed. Getting a Queen size bed may take up space and be underutilised as the other side of the bed will be left unoccupied. Lol! I'm thinking of doing a full height wardrobe and a small area for doing my work on laptop in the room. I have a lot of books (cos I do tutoring) and I do handicrafts work so I also need space for all these barangs. I'm just worried not enough storage space in the bomb shelter. 😅

    Yes, that is true, about under utilizing but I was thinking, if I have close friends who stay late and wish to sleepover, at least I have a bed to offer!  :D ( at least one other person, the rest have to sleep on the floor! LOL)

    I have my writing desk set in my living room (facing the windows) and that's why I have extra space in my bedroom for a Queen size bed. Guess it depends on how you would like to place your bed ,wardrobe and your desk then work from there on your storage shelvings. Do note carpentry works will put quite a hole in your pocket. 😅

    Hi @JOYWALKER

    Thanks for your reply!

    Wow! I like your living room. It's bright and spacious. The penguin cushions are cute too!

    Noted that I can request the contractor to extend the wall. Learn something new today 😄

    From your photo, I think maybe I can get a 1.6 m sofa so that if my mom comes over for a weekend stay, I can sleep on the sofa which is long enough to accommodate my height. Lol! 

    Hi @Melody2205,

    You have no plan to get a Queen size bed? It will fit into the space of your bedroom.  :)
    My place looks spacious is probably due to me removing the wall between bedroom and my living room. 😬

    Hi @Melody2205 !

    Same layout like mine! :D

    1) I do have a round dining table (85cm) and a 2 seater sofa (1.42m) in my living room. Not big on entertaining, so didn't get larger dining table or sofa. But in case you need a longer sofa, you can ask the contractor to extend the wall here, so it will lined nicely. Do note that, by doing that, it will eat into yr dining table space.

    2) Didn't build much storage shelf as I do not want my place to be too cramp. So, other than the left corner tall bookcase and lower drawers, I still have some storage space to store my stuff inside the TV console drawers. The rest? I just dump inside my bomb shelter! LOL

    Hope this helps.  :)

    Hi!

    How's everyone doing?

    My BTO has been delayed from this Q4 to next year Q2. Hopefully it won't be delayed anymore.

    Just want to check with all of you on the following:

    1) Did anyone of you get a sofa and/or dining table for your living room? If yes, care to share the dimensions of your sofa? I can't make up my mind how big sofa and dining table I want and I am aware that I need to measure the actual place before I buy those stuffs. My cousin is currently doing his renovation. His area is in Canberra. He says that even the 80 cm long dining table can't fit at the bomb shelter wall there with the chairs pushed closely to the table. I was thinking of getting a longer table as my current computer desk at my parents' place is 80 cm and I find it small for a dining table. Attached is my floor plan. Most items at parents' place are bigger in size. Now I need to try get used to smaller sized items for my new house 😅

    2) Did anyone of you install storage cabinets in the living room? I see some designs with storage cabinets in the living room. Not sure if that will make the whole living room look smaller? Otherwise, I may need to place all my stuffs in the bomb shelter. Hopefully the space is enough to accommodate all my barang barang 😆

    Thank you and stay safe!

    Hi Joywalker,

    i have similar layout as yours and i plan to seal the bedroom side of the wall.
    although you were able to designate the shower to that corner and have the basin opposite the toilet, may i know if you broke the warranty to do this? I suggested to swap position of the basin (beside toiletbowl) to where the shower(in middle of toilet, opposite the toilet bowl) and the contractor told me it would require hacking to do piping and will break the HDB 5yr warranty.
     

    My ID never hacked anything. Think he just re-directed the pipe for the water flow from the basin. 

    I've opted out everything so my toilet was bare. (But a toilet boil was there surprisingly when I got my keys. :) )

    wah headache sia..the toilet layout like this..how to do shower screen ar? haiz...

    I did move my basin and sealed up my kitchen toilet door, in order to have a shower/wet area.

    Guess you can do the same thing, but instead of sealing up the kitchen toilet door,  you may have to seal up the bedroom toilet door. 

    Doing that, it will also gives you more space to do a longer wardrobe in your bedroom too.  :D

    Wao your kitchen design not bad and the price is within my budget. Does your ID only do kitchen package only?

    Actually IKEA also got provide Quartz table top.

    How I wish HDB allow 2 rooms owner to opt in the kitchen cabinet as one of the OCS so that I can move in faster when I collect my keys.

     

     

     

    @LangrisserPM me and I can give you my ID details.

    Then , you can check out with them if they just do Kitchen Cabinet package.  :D

    wah very nice and comfy... good for you...

    ? Thank you!  The place looks more like a home now, less like a showroom flat! :D 
    Bought more stuff from Shopee/ Lazada/ Daiso to decorate:

    I didn’t have a coffee table. Instead, bought this C table (with wheels) so I can eat infront of the TV if needed.?

    Honestly , I have yet to shower in my bathroom!! :D

    I'm quite small built so, thinking, with the shower spray pointing down at this angle, I might splash a little onto the dry area but not too much, I hope.

    Will let you know, once I've tried it!  :)

    Hello! @JOYWALKER

    I guess you are a cat lover. You got such a cute kitty peeping at your kitchen entrance and more cats around your home?

    I too intend to get metal shelves from IKEA .

    But I have my eyes on another model. I would like to know , did you assemble the shelves yourself, or you get IKEA to assemble?

    Hi @Cranberries! 
    Yes, I do love cats!??

    I had the shelves delivered and assembled by IKEA ppl. Now the shelves are done, gonna buy their storage boxes to store my stuff liao!?

    oh 11.11 is coming so, I’m eyeing those extendable laundry poles as well!?

    Nice sharing @JOYWALKER, amazing to see your home taking shape over the months. My place gonna come 3Q2021 and I have absolutely clueless where to start beside knowing that I want a japandi minimalist theme, and that I should be talking to ID now.

    @JOYWALKER, nice comfy sofa and cute penguin. We need coat rack since we dun have normal bedroom door to hang our clothes. ?

    Yes, I’ve been looking at options on how to hang my jeans and coat rack is the best solution! 
    Once again, thank you for the recommendation!!?

    This two seater sofa is one that I can sit and my feet can still touch the floor! Comfy and not too deep. But I suspect I will spend more time in my office chair rather than the sofa!?

    I have a similar layout to yours, so it's good to see that the aircon trunking can be laid in quite an elegant manner. Why do I find myself staring at your bathroom wall tiles? Such a pleasing arrangement!

    If you don't mind, could you PM me your ID and ID firm and cost for your reno?

    Done! PM you liao. ?
    The trunking is done by the Gain City guys and they were very good at their job.

    My camera sucks. Here are the better pics of my bathroom (sent to me by my ID):
