Hi ashomech

welcome!

wah, your layout is very interesting, and yr seller's decor is even more so! Very very bold finsihing. What's that pole thing in the kitchen?

Berry,

Yeah it is malay house.

Ne0mesis,

Is it? I had difficult time deciding the kitchen layout. Even now i am keeping my fingers crossed to see how the final outcome will be. :unsure:

The unit is in Sengkang.

Froggy,

Yeah i chose this one just because of the lower COV. I am planing to tare down all the wall papers, carpet and redo all the painting.

The pole is for pole dancing ;) i guess. Just kidding. they kept some spices and sauce in those trays.

Even i wondered when i saw it first time the table with bar stools and a pole in the middle of the kitchen. When I told the seller that i'll be hacking away all the cabinets in the kitchen. The seller was asking me that they want to take that pole. I think they love this pole very much so i agreed for that. Yesterday when i visited for final inspection the pole was gone. :D
