    Wth. That sucks. Can I ask though, what made you choose him at the beginning? Were these issues that were obvious from the start? Cos I met a very noob ID also, and he's been seriously pushy about asking us to be his client. But he also cannot make it la. More on it on my blog, if you wanna know. Sorry to hear about the sucky experience! Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    Wow, I'd always thought Living Gaia was promising. I've been meeting up with IDs the past few weeks too. Met some good and bad. (I've shared my experiences on thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com.) Hope Rezt and Relax lives up to your expectations from here on. Fa.

    Loving the colours of the entire home. I like that they all blend nicely together. Btw, I noticed you're using mostly subway tiles for your kitchen. Is that costly? Am planning to do it for my bathrooms but scared they'll be too expensive for many walls instead of just one feature wall eg just for backsplash. Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    Love these lights! Hope they go well with the whole look. They remind me of the ones you see at Swensen's haha. Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    Wow. Really sorry to hear that. I thought the whole point of getting an ID is to give peace of mind and not having to monitor the renovation progress. Sounds like this guy isn't making your work any easier. Do share with us what happened even if you don't wish to disclose the ID. Think bad work needs to be publicised as much as good work.

    DUDE. You just articulated how I feel about laminate cabinets. They're one of the reasons my blog exists. I too would go for real hard wood as much as possible. And no matter how persistent an ID is about using laminates cos they last longer, are cheaper blablabla...resist it! You seem to have a keen sense of taste. The purists at Renotalk hope you'll put that to good use. Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    Great look so far! Most people get carried away with the Scandinavian look. I think this is tastefully done. Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    I actually curate some of the more...questionable home designs and Absolook has popped up a few times. IMO, it doesn't seem like they know what they're doing sometimes. Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    That view is dang awesome. Good luck on staying within budget. Taobao is the witch devil and will make you want to buy everything. All the best! Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    LOL. Actually, you're not the first homeowner to say that. Don't worry lah, it doesn't matter what I or other people think. Just design how you want. If featured, still publicity =P Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    Came here to say THOSE TILES ARE AMAZING. Have fun picking the furniture too - "industrial" doesn't always have to mean crates and barrels. Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    TELL ME ABOUT IT. I'm on a personal quest to get ppl on this forum to not follow these cookie-cutter trends - and, if they absolutely must, to at least make it their own with some design touches. Anyway, I'm on board with this look. Feels really classy and timeless. All the best to you both with your respective homes! Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com

    Congrats on your new home! Just a tip: don't worry too much about trends and getting the right look to fit a certain theme. Take what works and always plan storage, lights and allocate space for different functions. Be honest and upfront with what you like/don't like with your ID - don't let them force you into adding horrid fixtures just so it'll be good for their portfolio, but an eyesore for you. All the best! Fa, thisbtotrendmustdie.wordpress.com
