had to trace back to your early threads to figure out where is this area. then i realised you must had bought the common area as well huh. dude... can u imagine.. all these waiting and waiting and suddenly is debris lying in front of you already. and so, my usual little enchantment goes, "from heaps of destruction, thou flat shall reborn!" now eyes big big to see your tile selection. ha

haben buy yet but you're tempting me. you're evil. haha

well then, looks like it's all planned for. let the transformation begin! dont be so hard on yourself. sometimes, a spa or facial or 2 really helps to distress!

and counting... but the consolation is all minor touch-ups here and there, largely on carpentry works. yea, is a painful process for my ID till date cause wife is super micro detailing.. but is all for the better gd

ya lor.. get those corner units that is able to do a pull one kind. have a look at Green Giraffe's blog.. she has a Hafele system kind

haha.. this is like a self-dialogue but just had to add this in cause i believe my ID's version would be oct is creeping in and Fabian would say, "Lance, Everything that has a beginning, has an end" I sense it, but I believe this time is different. cause the near does not seem real i just sent him 21 pages worth of pictures and text document for the rectification works to be carried out you see. poor chap

yea, the kitchen is so much spacious after freeing the fridge from the kitchen entrance. my concern for the kitchen sink still remains. ha! otherwise, the all the rms are looking gd!

ooo.. took some time to finish reading up your tblog. i must say it felt like a satisfying weekend after reading a sunday column (dilmah tea and shortbread included). ha for a EM reno at $36k is really a good price but do make provisions for some top-up along the way. unexpected item like boxing up here and there are bound to have, so you may want to take note. looking at the few pics of kitchen cabinets you posted, got a feeling that your missus is akin to a more natural, woody while you are more contemporary modern feel. so yea, seems like yr choice for now meets both halfway. last but not least, welcome to RT, enjoy your reno process and well, don't forget your next facial appointment. HA

tot i told you to leave it barren instead? haha.. seems a lovely area to do bbq man with a fridge like tat and that cool lighting there... i will be drinking from there too! is really a neat set-up with very soothing colors. alas, why no build-in coffee machine? that would balance up the cabinet with the cabinet above the fridge my view la.. hee hee eh, the drums... gee.. funny why i conjure up an image of 7th mth ke tai straight away la! can we "bieo" auspicious items there next time we're there? next item, triangle with mouth piece..... anyone. 888!!! "sar tiao pieok!!!!" gum xia!

you're BACK! i tot you got lost in your garden! ya, the idea is to have a decent family dinner on the dining table. thus the bigger size. below the dining are 2 power points btw. so yea, steamboat is anytime! haha you're not keeping up, giraffe.. is not really concrete concrete per se. is a laminate actually but well, ya, the effect is there which is gd. HA we're aiming for stainless steel bench to fulfill the theme in the house, then another 2 individual ones to liven up the atmosphere well, pictures speak a thousand words; TOP: but this ss bench from lush lush is really costing us an arm and a leg. so we have nt bought it yet. butterfingerz mentioned there's a similar one at OM though. TOP: we just dig the artwork on the chair and we agreed that it would liven up if the house seems too "cold" with white and stainless steel

hey, the other side of the coin is... dont need to pay so much for electricity and water bills! haha I can't imagine the cleaning we're gonna do to the new place too. i will drop u a sms if there's ounce of muscle and energy left. HA!

THE DAY WHEN WOOD WOULD IS PASSE, NOW IS THE DAY WHEN LIGHT LIKES TOP: the very very tricky lighting feature that really onto our nerves (partly due to the d a r n concrete beam that ran across our island). discussion even went up another ante when wife and i actually bumped into a lighting consultant at lightcraft. after much serious debates with id, consultant and anal hours of discussion with wife over which lighting to buy over the island, it all boils down to this customised lighting at lightcraft - white, 4ft long with 2 spots and a T5 that would hang suspended below the beam. TOP BEHIND: my fujioh hood with free extension is up too! TOP: for a more rousing effect, go down under. HA TOP: cheap and not losing style, turn to ikea. track light that would be cast onto our open wiw which is most like an ikea set-up too. why ikea in the end, that'a another time, that's another day oct is creeping in and Oracle would say, "Neo, Everything that has a beginning, has an end" I sense it, the time is near, but I believe this time is different. cause after the end of the reno, everything in the house has a new beginning

excellent choice of tile! really excellent BRILLIANT i must say. cause am having that too. ha! just caught up with your blog.. your angled kichen is looking great in those modelling pics! very well planned without looking slanted, angled or odd! enjoy your reno process and yr stay in RT!

before the construction, the demolition takes precedence. ha finally, time to see yr tiles selection.

dude... is really unfortunate and my condolences too ya. yes, the consolation is that the reno is completed. at least, you can give yr mrs the unwaivering care and concern that she may need now. do what you need to do first, rt can always wait. i will hope all is well for you ya.. take care, take care

is funny how sometimes rls between man and wife is akin to army ranks... and not so too. We are the Generals and they're the Major BUT . . . We decide on general matters. they decide on the major ones. pink hubby, be gd. call lightings.com.sg k ha

much appreciated!!! tks tks will definitely go check it out. otherwise, i have no bench for now! ha

really wtf. neighbours' sucks, RT rocks is such platform that we come to know of such ugly beings that leaves us so irated and exasperated!! agggghhhhhh can u imagine my reno stops at 4 sharp these days so that if any noise complaint lodge, for sure is the level above that is doing the reno and my unit won't be implicated. but i mean, with reno permit, we can't do our reno in peace still. aren't they once new owners and doing renovation too... D A M N

thank you patsy. are you serious?? exactly the same? ok, i believe my kitchen and dining is worth at least .8mil now? hahahaha come to think of it, is my id being lazy by duplicating design or is he really that good? hmmm.. must go and test him liao. haha

amazed? you should be awed! is such an incredible transformation and i can't help but just b i t c h about your infinity island (the name is really catching on btw). and rubbing salt into the wound, IS STILL SO SPACIOUS after that! is sinful if you don't do entertainment at your place see la, you have just officially made my island seem so miserable compared to yours. i d i o t. hahahaha and i agree that the tv size is not proportion to the size of the wall you have there. but hey, am sure you're working on it all in all, wonderful reno done up!

oh well, come early, come later, come sequentially.. guess we just manage it along the way then. yea, pics dude... time to pic whoring. hahahah

hahaha... since yr hubby likes pink, i would say he's soooo cute to think of saving that $30 by buying more. but oh well, buying to your heart's content and esp when they are items that are love at first sight, what's stopping you right? ha hey... i noticed many white color too eh

go look for lily at home & bathroom building products. they house many hansgrohe and grohe stuff and i believe it can be cheaper than elsewhere. i don't have the receipt with me now but tell her that fabian from jelebu recommended you to come. then try asking her for the same price then. shoudn't be a problem.

thank you! same here, wanna see more. hahaha haha.. don't pretend. you jus wanna gatecrash to take your coffee maker right! alas, am quite sure the effect is achieved! period. thank you, thank you! like i said, the only raw industrial indulgence i can have you next to all the stainless steel stuff. but kudos to my wife too, she is very confident of pulling off all white mixing with my stainless steel items without a too clinic feel. so there was no holds barred when it comes to buying stainless steel items. ha

another item from lushlush.. am so wanting to buy my stainless steel bench for my dining but gee, the price is scary!!!
