i topped up 1k+ for that whole wall plus console and the feature that i gonna do to it.. the shorter wall was quoted to me as a package.

this way i feel the house would be more spacious looking..

I've also been looking around this forum too. My house is smaller than yours but I think I have the same concept as you! :sport-smiley-018: To hack a small part of the common room to connect with the master for the WIW. And also will be hacking the wall for the kitchen to make it an open concept! Will be following your thread closely so do keep us updated! Look forward to your house after reno! :dancingqueen:

By the way, can share your 3D drawings from plush living and what was the reason for choosing them? I'm looking at their designs too! :yamseng:

  • Author

my 3D ah.. i try to look for them hee. i think the reason why i choose them is becos the ID i spoke to is around my age, can click easily and i feel its eaiser to talk.

the others is more of like a formal kind of relationship like ID and customer, cant really talk much. also if i wanna request certain stuffs might be hard also..
