Hi!

Having booked our BTO in the middle of 2012, we are scheduled to receive the keys to our BTO in 3Q this year. I intend to engage a contractor and incorporate ideas from various sources, and have been looking around here as well as on the general interweb. Did up a 'moodboard' by picking pictures that we like, and realised recently it's been a while that we looked at the floorplan.

Horrors - the floor plan is nothing like what I expected it to be, which was one in which the bomb shelter was next to the kitchen. Not sure if my apartment has got an odd layout, but this changes everything from the semi settled idea we had in mind.

So we're back to square one - thankfully with some time in hand - and have to relook at ideas.

Does anyone have an apartment with this layout, and if so, do you think you could share some pictures of how you made the place up? Better if you have a t-blog (which I have been reading with keen interest recently)!

Thanks!

(ours 4 room, and is facing the other direction - sorry, don't have elsewhere to host the actual floor plan picture)

Its a nice layout actually. I had own a house which almost 70percent similar layout as urs too.. was headache while planning on it at the beginning but at last i choose to get a freelance designer to help me on it. In the end, im quite satisfied on the outcome. Contractor also recommend by my freelance designer and renovation cost also quite reasonable compare to the price which that 20 to 30 percent lower than price from design firm. I dun mind to share you my artist impression drawing which is still with me but some of it i had already lost it. Will pm you.. you can drop me your email or ur contact. Thanks

Ah great! Broadly speaking, what did you do?

Hi Cokiee,

Your layout is particularly interesting due to the shelter

however I am sure there are ways around it

I am a freelance (part time) designer and perhaps could assist you in designing a suitable / workable layout based on your plan... do you mind to share with me the mood images that you had collected?

I'd be more than happy to be able to brainstorm with you

do drop me a note or message if you are keen

cheers
