I wanted to do a charcoal grey, Ang mo style, in my bedroom, but no guts... Went with light clean colors for safety. Lol. :)

But those with dark navy and grey super nice

my ID keep trying to hard to convince me to go for the tone, almost not allowed me to choose my colour.

I only say yes until I can see what direction they are going. But again I still worry.

I'm sure it will look super nice. Can't wait to see the result.

haha I only have grey roofing beams to join this party.

Exquisite taste again nextstep bro. Teka hob looks nice..

Welcome to the grey tone club :)

Thanks for the compliment on the hob, main reason I go for it is because this hob is using ceramic glass instate of tempered glass and also come with cast iron grids. Simply just because I am never a fan of enamelled grids.

Initially my colors are dark brown... My wifey also doesn't like grey when I showed her last time. But when ID introduced grey to us, we began to like it. Now almost all our stuff are grey... walls, ceiling, cabinet, bed, rug, mat...

Thank you, hope it will turn out ok lah.

The steam oven is about $3100, I yet to put in the order but so far this is the lowest quote i got, still got time can shop around to compare price.

I wish to give a more clean and sleek look. But too bad not enough power, old resell HDB problem.

Day 16

Back for my holiday as only, during I am away my ID still keep me updated on the progress. Since today still my eat snake day so went up to take a look how's the progress.

So far I am happy with the workmanship (or maybe I am did not really look into the detail),

- Part of the tiles at the common toilet is up.

- Plumbing pipping work is done.

- Aircon pipping is done.

- Service yard window frame is up.

When I am arrive there is only 1 uncle working on my MBR toilet. When I am taking the pic he ask me "Do I need a model and he will pose for me!!!" and we have a good chat about the work he is doing at my toilet, actually just build a wall to concealed my shower set.

I think very soon I have to do all my shopping liao, I really been dragging the shopping finger cross by than all the things I want will have stock if not really is going to be a big problem.

So here are some of the photo of the progress

MBR Toilet ( A super small toilet :( )

Common Toilet (Tiles are up)

Today I went to ideal bathroom to check out their toilet bowl, this is the one that I like, but I am thinking should I pay almost $700 for a WC?

Maybe I should just go for the Baron.
