Living room

Morning Hippobb,

Nice progress with your reno. I like the round corner at the living wall. Hee..

By the way, I noticed that you put up a 'wall' at the living (right-side of the living room pic). You might want to be careful with your furniture purchase because the space from the front entrance through the recess area to the main area might not be sufficient for the mover to shift / turn those big bulky furniture (e.g. sofa, bed) in. Wonder-bee (my direct neighbour) also face this issue during his furniture delivery (though he didnt have that wall). Just for you to take note.

Hi Rasp,

Thanks for highlighting this... we totally overlooked this point... that place is for a full height cabinet.. gosh..now we are worried if our king size bed frame can turn at that corner boh.... will do some measurements later this evening...

btw we got our FSM to come and visit our house and give us some FS advice on Sat... and it so happen that our FSM's daughter's friend also stays in the same blk so while our FSM visited us, his daughter visited her friend on the 11th flr... just wonder if that's you leh..

Hommage-trading @ tai thong crescent not only sells furniture at a reasonable price.. they also sell those shaggy fluffy carpets rugs ... just got a queen sized shaggy rug @ 280.... feel its pretty good deal compared to those at the expo or those carpet shops at holiday inn atrium hotel...

Hello Hippobb,

No problem. Think its a common issue for our layout. We also have a king size bed, but the frame etc are already there during reno (cause we didnt shift them out of the house during the reno). Hope your bedframe can go through.

Nope, not me.. its wonder-bee family doing the housewarming on Sat. Hee..
