    I do not like bi-fold door since they spoil easily. My relatives have sworn off using them for kitchen and toilet a long time ago. I think sliding glass door is much better. Gives a semi open concept, slim and doesn't take up space.

    How is the make and what material is used? Its hard to gauge looking at the photos only. Any closeups?

    I have both, curtains and roller blinds. Going forward, I will only use roller blinds for kitchen since it is easier to wipe and remove the grease. I will NOT recommend roller blinds for rooms since when it get windy...especially at night ...they make a LOT OF NOISE! I have to draw up the blinds to stop them from banging against the window grills and the walls....otherwise I cant sleep since it is so noisy. For me..curtain can be inexpensive as long as you do not choose those fancy or expensive fabric.

    I remember that home fix or self fix retails the chalkboard paint. If you intend to use for writing...you should stick to the chalkboard paint. For matt paint, will attract fingerprints easily. As for the white patches, I think those are molds..if the paint didn't cure or dry properly will have those ugly patches.

    Try Home-fix or self fix. I believe you can find a lot of materials and tips from their websites. happy reno!

    Hdb just issued a circular stating that the aircon pipes should be directed to the drainage directly. Alternatively, just place a pail to collect the water. Else the water might seep to the toilet below n you have to pay for the damages. http://diva79.blogspot.sg/2014/10/there-have-been-some-new-changes-been.html The solution to porous tiles is to apply sealant but it's not permanent.. And will wear out. Need to reapply every year...but clear sealant will also yellow with age..so I would usually recommend to use darker tiles.

    I am using Yale digital lock..very good. Makes the metal gates sorta redundant. Have been using over a year while my relative have used the same one for over 6 years with no issues at all. I am unsure of samsung but my general experience with Samsung is that their products are not very lasting. Though its cheaper.

    It is really an ingenious design, how much does it cost? I am also seriously considering it.
  18. diva79

    Did you manage to keep to your budget? Case in point; I have been quoted 7k for standard work for a 2 bedder condo.

    Did they sand the parquet tiles BEFORE varnishing? That will help to even out the floor.

    Haiz....my chinese cannot make it. Hence I find online shopping on chinese sites very daunting. Did you use any website translator?

    Oops! hahahha...what we did was to decide on the furniture and then interior design is based on the furniture which we have purchased.
  24. diva79
    how much did you pay for it and where did you purchase it from? Have been looking at paintings for the longest time and I am too lazy to paint myself too.
