Hi eekenji, sorry to bother again, but would it be possible to share the contacts of jimmy from 3d innovative with me?

Also, for the part of the old balcony which became your living room, is the ceiling levelled? If not what method did your contractor use to level it?

thanks!

Hi eekenji, are your window grilles the normal silver aluminium ones or white powder coated?

I'm trying to achieve the white/wood look too but white powder coated ones are much more expensive =(

thanks!

white powder coated, the windows were done by previous owner - just one year ago .. quite new and maintained well.

We didn't touch anything on the window and door.

Post renovation picture for Common Bedroom 1

More pictures can refer to this link.

Opposite master bedroom was the common bedroom #1, which will be rented out. It was fully furnished with a queen size bed, brand new wardrobe, build-in shelves and study table. We also asked the carpenter to fabricate bay window cabinets for the recess area. The cabinets were big enough to store a lot of stuffs, included a large luggage. The wallpaper was ordered online from Korea, the quality was really good.

I also like the bedsheet set from muji but they didn’t sell king size bedsheet set so I bought this king size quilt cover set online from oversea ~ looked similar to muji style.

Our master bedroom can access to our study room, we installed a bi-fold door in between the wall.

Another wall from our master bedroom was the walk-in wardrobe. It was just beside the door.

We built the walk-in wardrobe with Ikea system and only costed us for few hundred dollars which was cheaper than a normal wardrobe.

Yeap, the tv is mounted directly to wall. My carpenter made a little white box below the tv to hide those wires :notti:

He was a nice guy, he said this will no need to build additional wall and can save cost.
