in fact, i like and enjoy cooking.. surely i can't do without the hood i got my kitchen and bathroom stuff from Asia Excel,IMM...i m not sure of the price for the 3-bowl sink..probably u might wan to go for window shopping 1st on some shops and do comparison of their service and price..i go to Asia Excel bcoz my ID able to help me get higher discount.

having an island in the kitchen was my dream...budget don't fit leh so haf to scrap the idea... tot of placing the cooking area at the island top but island hood itself aledi cost more than S$1K...don't understand why it is so ex..

the waiting is really unbearable... thanks for the advise, i m prepared to drop by as frequent as possible during the reno progress...thank goodness my workplace is juz 4 mrt stops away...can sneak out during lunch time to go see see..

hi Malui, Franke sinks caught my attention when i was browsing those interior decor/design magz..it is nice indeed.. initially wanted this design but it is TOOOOO EXPENSIVE!! !! u should be looking for something like this..if i m not wrong, tis type easily measure up to at least 1m.. well, unless u've ample space on ur kitchen top otherwise i don't tink it is practically sound. .as for the price, i'm not so sure and it also very much depend on the brand.. wil post here again on how much i spent on the sink + rinnai hood on tomoro..coz invoice is at home..

hi rebtang, the bottom part is a seatee+shoe cabinet...initially, i do not want tis part as well due to cost cutting but wife insist lor..

Hi Ben3555, so who's ur ID? ur house still in the midst of reno? i've to cross my finger and pray hard tat my LG aircon won't experience premature failure.. but my wife & I likes the design lorr, so no intention to change. can't wait for my reno to start...nxt fri will be getting the keys, so most probably will start on the following week.

Some items that I have ordered for my house Franke kitchen sink, tap and some accessories LG air-cond - Artcool Inverter Sys 4 Cuizino built-in oven Rinnai gas hob Rinnai hood

the color of tat wall is lavender mist. but somehow the tone looks abit off leh.. !! may haf to double check wif my ID if she used the right color on the drawing... my tv feature wall is 980 partition at foyer is 1580, this include extension of the wall from the pillar yeap! it is big..and tat's the reason for buying.. but will expect to be at home more frequent coz more space = more cleaning I've some pix, which i took during the first viewing...but rather limited lor...i will be doing my final inspection nxt week, then will take more pix to share here...must haf a before and after mar
