Your house has came together well! Looks fabulous!

Ps. Did u do away with the stainless steel in the kitchen? Didnt seem to notice it anywhere.

thanks thanks!

I didn't do away with stainless steel though.. did you mean my appliances or carpentry?

here's the other side of my kitchen (with built-in carpentry):

Haha. Actually i meant the counter top in ur 3d rendering. Tot it was a stainless steel counter top.. wanted to ask if it was hard to maintain, but seemed to me that its not..? :D

The 3D rendering of how my kitchen should look like:

oh yes.. i decided not to go with the stainless steel counter-top becos' i don't think i can stand the scratchy look although that's how it's supposed to look like.

Moreover with a customised stainless steel top, it would mean that I wouldn't be able to install the kitchen sink I wanted. I would have to customise a kitchen sink as well and it's quite hard for them to achieve the look i want (ie. the almost 90 degree profile at the 4 edges of the sink)

I wouldn't say I'm 100% happy with my current choice of counter-top becos' it turns out that the stone's color variation differs from the sample I chose initially, so it's not as dark as I wanted it to be. Apparently, it is common for natural stones to have around +/- 5% colour variation.

Having said that, the overall effect still turns out to be pretty nice and acceptable.

hey, saw u bought the selena sink. Is it really stainless steel? How's the feel of using it so far??

hello, my kitchen sink is not from selena though. I bought it from Kitchen Culture and it's an Italian brand called Foster.
