Ripples

Hi, does anyone know where to buy this corner basin? Looking for good quality basins.

The metallic laminate that I selected is too expensive. So I have to re-select a cheaper laminate. My ID guy suggested a black laminate with the same brushed finish and a "midnight" black solid top. What do you guys think? Stay with silver or change to black? Original Option: Silver Laminate New Option: Black Laminate Corian Night Sky Solid Top

End of Week 1: Cement/Tiling Works Cement work is coming along slowly and steadily. It's like watching paint dry. So painfully slow but essential. Certain things can't be rushed. The guest toilet is reinstated. The previous owner hacked the toilet and replaced it with a pantry cabinet. Had to put it back as I don't expect my guests to climb upstairs to use the toilet. The aircon team came in to run the trunking through the bedrooms. Looks more like elephant trunk! Need to get my ID guy to wrap it up nicely. Managed to get HDB approval for the aircon condenser to be installed outside. Glad I don't have the chunky condenser buzzing over my head in the balcony.

I think I got carried away with the hacking Maybe it won't look so huge after the furniture is in. Haven't explored the neighborhood. Only know I'm close to Thomson Plaza. Will check out the market soon. Thanks for the info.

That's the proposed shower area.

Thanks for the feedback. My sofa will be delivered in Aug. I'm planning not to join them. The larger piece will be in grey fabric and the smaller piece will be in white. I bought the ottoman too. That will be in grey/white mesh. Here's my reno blog: http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=21995

Hi Supersimon27 Great job with the reno. Is the Cellini sofa comfortable? I bought the same configuration but selected the grey/white fabric.

My ID and I spent the weekend working on the enlarged bathroom design. This is what we came up with: New Floorplan: Any comments?

Hi kcsek Check out the Amasco website: http://amasco.com.sg/products_detail.asp?pID=132&scID=1. It's on promotion but still not cheap. I've yet to test the fan so I don't know how powerful it is. I'm going to stop by the showroom later this week. Let me know your thoughts if you get to demo it. Also, if anyone knows where to get a better deal, pls share.

The two bedrooms will be transformed into my new master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom: http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu304/R...ion/Bedroom.jpg (still working on the color scheme). The existing master bedroom with another ensuite bathroom will become the guest/entertainment room. There will not be a WIW as I want to keep the space opened. There will be lots of floor-to-ceiling wardrobe space flushed along the walls in both bedrooms: The wardrobe doors are "almost hidden" as part of the wall to keep the lines clean.

Here's my shopping list: http://s658.photobucket.com/albums/uu304/R...hopping%20List/ Found great bargains at Showroom Fairs, GSS and Neighborhood Stores. Glad to recommend.

Hi All Thanks for the kind comments. The last renovation was done 8 years ago. The design was inspired by the Japanese architect, Tadao Ando. It is now my turn to continue with the transformation. The inspiration is based on a combination of light, air and space. Therefore, most of the walls will be hacked and replaced by sliding doors.

My place is at Sin Ming Avenue. Yes, the section wall is coming down in the balcony: http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu304/R...n/Balcony-1.jpg

Not doing much. Focus on upgrading the bathrooms and kitchen.
