rdnest 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Tiles for the whole house has been chosen from Sin Lek Building Materials P/L at 70 Eunos ave 7. The salesperson, Jasmine was very helpful and friendly. Glossy tiles for living & bedrooms 1st tile from top is for Kitchen floor. 2nd for kitchen wall (abit wave surface) The rest not selected. for show nia Bathroom tiles. All will be in white (same design) but only the shower area has a row of yellow with 2 strips of mosaic running along at 2 sides of yellow. Toilet tiles. All will be in white (same design) but only the wall facing the toilet door has a row of green with 2 strips of mosaic running along at 2 sides of green. The picture is not so clear to show the shimmering glitters in some of the green mosaic. very pretty Edited June 8, 2009 by rdnest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rdnest 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 The white one is the wavy kitchen wall tile + orange tiles that will only for the wall between top& bottom kitchen cabinets. So it means no need to do backsplash...save $$ Closer look of the orange tile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rdnest 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 actually after choosing the tiles, my fren wants to change the layout...yet again :faint: Alas, he can't help but feeling strange w/o a storeroom. Initially he planned to make one at one corner of the kitchen. It was later replaced by the cooking hob after the advice of FSM. Now, he hope to make one directly opp the hob. meaning the washer & dryer hv to give way and re-settle at middle of kitchen. washing basin thus got to make against chute wall so as to make more walking space rather than L-shape. And L-shape wardrobe in MBR is also scrapped as he wants more space in MBR so tt his bb gal can bunk in (with her bb cot). His workdesk is tucked in a corner of his bb's rm. not custom made. think should be getting one from ikea or somewhere... here is, (hopefully) the final plan : Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rdnest 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Just done up a 3D layout for the kitchen. This shows the Un-L washing basin. straighten up looks more neat or not Below cabinet cannot hv drawers type cos got rubbish chute inside This show the newly added store area. The program dun hv sliding door selection, me use tall cabinets to illustrate. Most likely the area will be built-up & using folding doors.. cheaper Edited June 8, 2009 by rdnest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
