We arrived at the block about 9.30am to see our carpentry delivered and stored at a corner of the void deck! It was packed very compactly and neatly. Heard from my neighbour who has shifted in that he saw it being unloaded at about 7.10am in the morning!

The workers arrived at about 10.30am and soon got to work. 4 of them.

With about 1/4 of the carpentry inside the flat

There were still so many outside in the corridor!

This is the kitchen cabinet at the breakfast/bar counter side. We're using excel drawers for the whole house and blum hinges and blum aventos for the dish rack.

This must be the most exciting stage!

The house is materialising in front of you

The whole house will be in a different look once the carpentry is up.

Hope to see more updates once they are done

Day 2 of carpentry work after citygas came to run the gas pipe in the morning..

Slight cockup as the gas outlet ended a little short of mark. Will be rectified tomorrow..causing a delay as one side of the kitchen carpentry cannot be installed today for kompacplus to be measured..

The other side of the kitchen cabinets are up...

Wardrobe and study table up yesterday... wifey keep complaining that my study table's depth is overkill... 750mm to be exact including the cable management slot... i love big working desk =X

Bedhead and side tables completed today...

We will be engaging MGL Curtain tomorrow for our blinds...MBR will use roller blinds and the rest of the house timber blinds...

Very nice. I realised that you did not build be kitchen cabinet cement base?

yup, no cement base for kitchen as we will never wash the floors. It will just be supported by legs like those Ikea kitchen cabinets

Hi, is your corridor track light using led? What's the walt you used?

Thanks!

We've began installing some of the lights, others will need to wait for carpentry to come up.

Corridor track light

Haiku fan is up!

IKEA's mini tracklight at the main entrance. Wifey feels that the "track" should be rotated 90deg to look better, what do you think?

Replica Tom Dixon Beats @ Bar/Breakfast Counter

Thanks!

Yes, all lights are LED except the Tom Dixon Lamps and some T5 tubes later on. If I remember correctly, its 3w each.

Wardrobe completed

Study table left the laminate on the table top and the metal legs.

Subway tiles in progress..will be all the way up to the ceiling.

The sink side.

Suspended shoe cabinet and console cum settee is up! The feature wall is not yet secured thats y its leaning at an angle...cant wait to see the laminated look of it!

The btm part is done, so can have an idea of the look?

Checked with the carpenter at the end of the day if they can finish everything tomorrow. He shook his head and replied, "Either Monday or Tuesday then can complete". Schedule is really tight now and I'm not sure if Kompacplus can meet the schedule as they have yet to fix an appointment to do the measurements. After which, they require about 1 week lead time. Problem is, I'm moving in next Sunday! without the Kompacplus, the toilet sinks/taps and kitchen sinks/taps can't be installed. I would have to use water from shower only -_-

Forgot to upload a pano shot of the living room I took yesterday...from the corridor...

Cement screeding of a small portion of the kitchen wall and the beam in progress.

Washing machine base.

Common bathroom alcove wall.

Master bathroom alcove wall. The aircon trunkings seen here will be hidden as we will have false ceilings in both the toilets.

Hi Harocarlos,

Fellow Ancillian here. Looks like your reno is going well! Great looking place. I am curious about what type of heater you use and how you manage to hide it since the outlet/inlets are quite low. Thanks in advance!
