  1. Yes, they also tell me after this will be very fast liao, the most crazy things is I am going overseas this coming week and will be away for a week.
  2. Day 8 - Meeting with ID Just got back from almost 4 hours meeting with my ID, today we are finalising the colour of material, choice of laminates, counter top and also all the cabinet layout. I been thinking this will be a fast and painless meeting. Until I was asked to look at different shades of grey (lucky not 50 shades hahahah, I know is a very lame joke) try to find the one that match the counter top or the cabinets laminates. Discuss which side the door should swing, which type of blum I should use on each and every drawers. All I can say this 4 hours I can really see how much effort that my ID have put into this planning, they also push back my idea (I told them to challenge me if needed to) and justify to me why it won't work base on the colour tone or material of the design. This is the main colour that I am going for Grey, White and Brown. So now everything is almost done, so next will be lots of shopping and paying for the item I shortlisted for the past few months.
  3. Agree with Ahyong81, for bathroom is better for you to tile up the whole wall as the humidity is high and we shower each day. This is the best way to protect our investment and also with tiles is so much easy to clean.
  4. Thank you very much, looking forward as well. As I am not very good at imagine things. Can't wait for things to be more visual for me.
  5. Day 3 - 7 Went up to the unit early this afternoon the check on the progress, So here is some of the updates. Wall are all gone, new wall are starting to built, I always have the idea the wetworks will only start tomorrow. Kinda surprise when I walk in the unit and saw some wall is up. Panorama view (From the kitchen entrance) : View from living room : Walkway to my closet and dry vanity : View from service yard :
  6. That is nice, me in this rented place for 4 over years liao when I move in will be another big project.
  7. you can upload your photo to http://photobucket.comand link back here, so the photo will show much bigger. Hope this tips help. Did you manage to get your WC?
  8. The fireplace is a very unique and cool idea, I think it will go well with the theme.
  9. Hope the counter top problem can be solve soon. love love love the toilet door.
  10. Good to know that, I do have to say I like the look and feel of the design. And when sit on it I like it as well. So most likely will get that and the price is more easy for the pocket as well. Btw how much you pay for it? Can share? I went to their showroom at UE Square. Unit number is #01-33
  11. Shopping - Toilet I has been always like the TOTO toilet, so really looking forward for this shopping trip today to choses my WC. But end up I can't find anything that I like in TOTO but did check on their toilet accessories, do like 2 of their series. But really have to think of the budget. (maybe go TB see is there anything that is cheaper) After visit a few shops and try sitting on it, I have to say my body like the Baron W-888, as much as my friends have very bad experience with their customer service and the quality. So at this moment I shortlisted this and mean time will continue to go to see see look look and hope will find other that I like. I also bought the storage heater today. I go for the BeeBest 50L Storage Heater, because I was told that it is single welded joint.
  12. The grey tiles really stand out, good that you go check very frequently so can rectify the problem fast. So your MBR bath you are using built in WC?
  13. Woot! Congratualtion, exciting time I am sure. Enjoy the process and the shopping time. (All items you like you will feel it shine )
  14. Haha, she did draw the kitchen for me, as my other area nothing much, as I try to have minimum built-in item so is like lots of empty space.
  15. For me I seeing this house is a place I will be staying for a min. 10 years but again with my age I don't see the point of moving as well. So when I plan for the reno, I will try to make it as cosy and I can a place I really call home that I wanted to stay in and look forward each day, after stay in a rented a room and rented unit for years, I want to make sure I can call this place HOME.
