Day 10 - Adding Boards for the partition walls View from entrance of MBR View from corner of MBR Across the wall is the WIW area. The living area partition is also up. One of the sides of the partition wall will be where the TV console is. Open-concept study room. My work area, wootz. Now I see the room... it is really very big

Any lighting experts here? I'm having trouble planning my lighting. Not doing any L-box, false ceilings. Not sure whether should we add on any other lights, take away excess lights. Living Room: Is 3 light points too much for the living room? Basically LP03 (Lighting point 3) is a fan with yellow light. By itself it is incapable of luminating the whole living area. Is 40W light too much for LP04 and LP13? Thinking of when we need more light we can switch off the yellow light from LP3 and use LP4,LP13 instead to light up the area. Vice versa when we need more 'ambience' can off LP04,LP13 and just use the light from the fan (LP03). Master Bedroom: MBR has a horizontal ceiling beam running across in between the 2 rooms. I'm worried that 1 light above (LP01) is insufficient to light up the whole place. What is the best way to light up MBR without using Lbox, downlights, while maintaining ambience? Wall lights? Balcony: Do we need an additional ceiling light if we just put 2x wall lights? (Those small ambient kind) Study Room: Same as Living room, the lighting point (LP05) is yellow light mounted on a fan. Is there a need for another set of lights just to light up the bookcase area?

Day 9 of Renovation: Wet works completed. Framing for the partition walls are up Study Room partition frame built up. Sad to say the pictures that I took for the MBR partition were either blurred or corrupted. So no visual updates on that. Entrance to the kitchen. Floor tiles are in grey. Wall behind the entrance. This will be our future dining area. :3 Bathroom is erected in MBR wootz.

I'm woodlander too

Hi, Congrats on getting your new house. Hope to see your house pictures soon :3

OMG cream of brocolli. I like Looks really tasty and tempting~~

Yep, my parents and in-laws will also jump if they know that we sleep under a beam. Luckily the new arrangement doesn't clash much in terms of fengshui. Now just need to work on the new layout + some adjustments of furniture and other stuff.

Day 6 of Renovation: Everything is in order and I heard that the tiling will be completed on Monday Pictures of the current tiling status Common toilet Master toilet - Decided to leave the pipes out in the open. Boxing them up will make the toilet look much smaller. Close up of tiles, can see the flower motifs The tiles are actually pretty much reflective, wootz. Really glad that we chose these tiles, they make the toilets look brighter and bigger visually/ Tiling for the MBR toilet floor is done too.

Wow.... I want a waterfall tap too... but our budget doesn't allow T_____T It is very very nice.

Welcome to renotalk 27k for a full overhaul + so many carpentry... It is considered quite a bargin le

Found out that there is a horizontal beam running right across our intended bed-position T__________T The Fengshui master said that that location is the best for both of us, but it suffers from the horizontal beam. Really don't know what to do. Have to rectify this before our contractor start erecting the false wall. One way is to revert back to our draft 3, which places the bed on a solid wall instead of a false wall, though it reduces the wardrobe area to 3metres instead of 4metres. Sighz.

OMG hacking is completed. Patrick says wet works will start tomorrow Wow at the efficiency... Some pictures taken when me and wendy pop by this afternoon. The tiles are all delivered too....

Something for the ikea fans, how I wish in SG got this kind of show sia.

Went to select tiles yesterday at Hafary and Lian Seng Hin at Balestier Road...need some opinion on which combi looks better First combi..the upper two tiles are wall tiles while the one at the bottom is the floor tile. Second combi... And also the tile for kitchen...got three choices but dunno which one will look better in a kitchen with white cabinets... Choice 2 Choice 3 - looks almost like choice 2 except it has little sparkles here and there on the tile... Appreciate all opinion and feedback...thanks!

Renovation more or less settled on 28th Sept. Previously intended to 'dong tu' today but I'm having my ICT till the 18th..... **** sianz. Can't wait to see how my 1st house turn out. :3 Over the past weekend we went for a shopping spree for our new house items, bought ->

Wow that's a very nice statue of Elvis O.o Sad to hear that the neckline there got a chip, otherwise it will be a great addition sia.

Just started collecting them. They will be occupying some of the display spaces we set up in the new house

Some pictures of the house. I think it is long due liaoz haha. (*crosses fingers and hope that the current owner wun mind us putting up pictures*) The house is quite well maintained. If FSM never said anything about the kitchen placement and position, we would have kept the kitchen intact.

Wootz. First decor item bought for new house. Took a bit of time to take the pictures. Let the cute little nendos help describe it ba. Miku: Leave it to us!! Kureha: Bean sprouts, tied in a cute way using a red ribbon. Kureha: This is broccoli. Cute Rin: *looks in awe* Miku: Although this is not my favourite leek, it is still a healthy vegetable. How the panels are stacked together, with the clock.

Wow those are really nice 3D drawings Dunno is it me... is that a one side swing glass door for the common bathroom? From the picture I find it hard to open that glass door when I am inside it.

Draft 4 of house plan after consulting FSM. Some major changes, but the difference isn't that much as compared to draft 1 and 3, phew. An image with the FSM's plans is here.

Opps didn't know that my wife is still log into her account. The above poster is me. :3 One thing which I'm concerned about is a couple of comments of the FS master. His suggestion is for me to place around 9potted plants in front of my door (4 with heights above eye level) The circles in blue are the plants Will this be considered obstructing the common corridor? Any plants that are tall and have a small base/side frame to recommend? (like bamboos?)

Thanks for the suggestion. I just came back from HDB hub at Toa Payoh. They are willing to help me process the application for AHG as even though it is 2days prior to the 1st appointment. Really grateful to them.

Help.... I just received a backdated letter stating that if I did not submit the documents by 25th June. The Additional Housing Grant will not be processed. And my 1st appointment is in 2days... Be it human error or anything, is there anyway I can do to salvage the situation and get the HDB process the AHG?
