yup, Pink is correct on the new flat area. When i bought my EM, it was 148sqm (reflected in the resale transaction) and after i bought the miserable recess area, it became 150sqm and was reflected as 150sqm in the resale transaction when i sold it off.

Err, as promised, hope this post benefits those going through their renovation. It's a know-how from our ID when we engaged her and I feel it is great to share such useful 'innovation'.

As not to flood here, the full posting with more details [and more illustration photos] can be found in my personal blog. Click on Renovation Tips - Wire Management in my signature.

We turned the sides of our wardrobe to act as a wall for our switches/sockets.

Hi pet,

LOL, pardon me but I cant help having a smile on my face reading the sentence 'so can conceal without ILLEGALLY concealing them in walls'. The word 'illegally' gives me the shivers leh.

BTW, 3Ds Max looks complicated to use.

heh heh ya... For me I can't really be bothered cos mine is a simple home. But given the chance to really do up a designer one like yours... this would certainly be a very good solution to all the trunking all over the place.

haha I think so. Still waiting for it to come back to SG. Not so near in the future but I'm not in a hurry for it anyways

Hi Reiki, can i seek an information from you?

You mentioned in your blog "Though we managed to get the color code from Legrand for its silver colour and gotten the electrician to spray paint the base, we didn't want to employ too many of it in the house."

I have asked my electrician to spray paint the white bases for me too...but he said the colour might not match exactly and so I immediately remembered that you mentioned abt colour code. Can you share with me the colour code for the silver colour that legrand use?

Thanks a lot.

I cant find the color code in the invoice from the electrician, though we were billed for the colour base.

I knew my ID called Legrand for the colour code and instructed the electrician to act accordingly. On closer inspection of the base, the silver grey is not as shiny as the plate but it does look the same.

You may want to call Legrand at 6416 1550 to enquire, Bon07. I am sure they can assist you.

LOL, every month I'll walk to town council and demand for pay for washing that area

This is called vanity lah with a price. They wash my block on every 26 of the month [there is a notice pasted on the notice board at void deck]. On every 25th, we will clear the stuffs and put them back 26 evening. Kinda troublesome but since the carpet was a gift from previous seller and we are grateful for that - and we felt it was nice to have it outside, we endure the routine.

You finalised all your house concept and gotten all the stuffs? Saw yr blog - your house gonna be so spacious, so bright, so bling bling with gold and with such a lovely view!
