Is it my eyes? Look like the partition is slanted or something?

I think it looks slanted if taken with reference to that brown door. That door is ajar thats why it makes the partition look slanted.

Yeah, you're right. Because the "black" door was dismantled and lean on the wall. I think the partition is correct, at least when we did a site visit, it doesn't occur to us to be odd.

We actually hack away the old door frame and add a new frame to tilt it.

Yeah, of course my contractor who did it :D

I did not tilt the gate, i think that one is more tricky and might cost more, so we didn't do it.

The ugly aircon trunking

Due to the recommendation of FSM, the aircon locations make the life of GC men difficult. Although, when I knew the aircon location, I realized it's actually the best location for every aircon in the room, example: in the bedroom, the aircon won't blow directly to you.

Hence, I insist on having the aircon on those locations. Initially the were not receptive because the amount of troubles. And they also worry that putting the aircon on those locations will make the house "ugly" because of the trunkings that have to go around.

Initially, they even want to tear down my old wardrobe to put the aircon in the living room. I was ready to give up, but finally they have another solution with the truning showing up in the living room. I took this route. Hopefully, I could have some ideas to "hide" those ugly trunkings.

Behold ... the ugly trunkings.

May I ask who is the fsm? The trunking is not exactly ugly. I mean you simply cant hide everything unless you are willing to spend more $$$ to box up!

Cheers.

I am also really irritated with those thick aircon trunking... One even goes vertically across my wall.. sian (No choice cos the water from the aircon has to flow with a gradient to some outlet in the toilets) .. Have to think of creative ideas to make it less ugly or use it as part of the designs...

Eventually, our dining table is not ready in time.

S&C Furniture would provide us a loan set for our move-in.

Our dining tables would only ready in 6 weeks time (which means 4 more weeks). :(
