Hi there, My house is a 30-year-old flat and the original laundry area is at the back of a very long kitchen and just at the entrance of the toilet (i.e we have to walk through the kitchen, the laundry area before reaching the common toilet) Since i don't cook very often, i separated the laundry area from the kitchen with a sliding door so that the cooking fume can't dirty my clean clothes. At the same time, i opened up the toilet to join with the laundry area to create more space for that area. If you have enough budget and want to perserve the spaciousness of the kitchen, you can actually install a glass door as a divider between the laundry area and the kitchen Hope my sharing helps!

Hey Cherry, Ya given that our house is just a 3 room and my hubby hates claustrophobic space, i am constantly reminded to minimize uncessary stuff/ purchase...lol.. But somehow, we still need to hide our junks..so we created a small storeroom (like 1.2 feet by 1 feet big only) to dump all our stuff and even a mahjong table inside haha... The queen size bed also doubles up as our mega storage as the underneath compartment is fully accessible for storage purpose. Storage is like $, the more the merrier..keke

Hey, Sounds fun to have collective intelligence! I did mine late last year already. can see the pix in the following links: http://www.lobopix.myphotoalbum.com/view_a...um05&page=7 http://www.lobopix.myphotoalbum.com/view_a...um05&page=8 http://www.lobopix.myphotoalbum.com/view_a...um05&page=9 my wardrobe is not a big one and the structure is rather simple..not much fancy stuff. we have to extend the MBR into the kitchen to "steal" some space to allow for a not so squeezy walkway. To cut carpentry cost and permit light to go into the kitchen area (behind the wardrobe) we used the pole system from IKEA which is actually quite sturdy and affordable So far no compliants Hope the ball can keep rolling ya!

Oh I am interested in seeing the pix also. Actually I had my 3-room reno done late last year already. But out of interest, i am constantly looking at other projects for inspiration for future use..hehe
