Small setback for you and soon you will be in a beautiful home. When is estimated handover

    The wooden bed frames looks nicer but I would have taken the 2nd one because of the cushiony headboards because I like to lay in bed to read books,mobile, watch movie etc so I would prefer that for comfor.looks wise it is also nice and more unique to wooden frames. The legs are also hidden underneath so less chance of hitting toes to the external frame

    Enjoying the shopping process for home renovation. Went to Kohler showroom to have a look at the sinks and fixtures. Shortlisted 2 below (pulled out) but decided on the rectangular one as i have a habit of dripping water all over the floor when washing face and brushing teeth..hehe Kohler is having sale on their existing stock - while stocks last. I have chosen it because they are vessel sinks which have half sitting inside the vanity table thus giving it a sleek thin look on countertop and yet deep enough for practical use.

    Very nice very nice! I like the masculine style of your home and like almost all of your home furnishing. I am also looking to have texture glassed or frosted for the glass door dividing my kitchen and the yard/toilet area especially since my WC is open concept so anyone in the kitchen can see the "action" . How come yours has colour? share please ..

    You are giving me the motivation to break away from the safe colours for my kitchen too.... heheh..

    I saw the LG OLED in Best Denki @ Great World City and served by this guy Jerry Fong. There is a promotion price for the OLED 4k and the Full HD at $4799 (less $888) and $ 3099 ( Free 32" LG TV and less $188) Very impressive and I am also very tempted. This sales person actually recommended me Sony which he says makes good quality TV and lower pricing.

    That's the most important to have a responsible Contractor or ID; )

    Yay! Tres tres bon! I am looking forward to seeing the colour combination because no risk no gain I spent a fee minutes on the admira site and honestly although I love so many of the colours but I was thinking why don't just take white to be safe mm so boring right ? Still trying to convince my mind to see the colours all together .. But his colour board looks more green than baby blue to me or ls it my eyes ?

    Think it will be rojak eccentric style..haha.. actually i love dark warm spaces with splashes of bright colours such as teal, dark pink, rich purple etc, very indian or arabic style but BF feels its too feminine for him so we are trying to balance it out. I came back from India with 1 persian carpet and 2 indian embroidered pouf covers. On top of that I have a whole loot of items collected over the years from travel so to be honest no idea how the space will turn out. Anyone can share where to buy foam / beans for the cushion covers/

    I always wonder how people can decide on a colour for the whole space with a tiny piece like this? I dont have much imagination and most of the time cant see it in my mind... thats what cause the sleepless nights and my poor contractor also have to give me opinion like it is his home. lol. Thanks lazyfatcat

    I saw your black frame windows, will you be changing them? I am undecided about it because I wanted black but full panels. Currently it is black frame but with those small windows that open outwards at the top. What is the monster?? curious..

    Kara, when you have the time kindly share a photo of the slop up step of your home. I am wondering if it is allowed by HDB?

    After 10 days away for work trip in India, it is exciting to see the tiles coming up. Our last minute decision to change the tiles didn't come out too badly. Contractor Desmond has also feedback that the tiles quality are quite good with hardly any warped tiles. **happy! - wall between bedrooms came down to make space for a walk in wardrobe. - Kitchen walls came down to have an open concept kitchen. \ - wall between bedroom2 and living room came down to become part of the hall for TV area. The original hall will become a very big dining area. Walls between the WC and shower came down to make an open concept WC. (sorry dunno how to make the photo vertical) - Woodtime Italian tiles up for the whole flat except for yard and toilet

    Kara! just got back to Singapore and have time to catch up on your long awaited photos. Beautiful home and I love it so much. Doesn't look like a HDB at all and it feels so cozy. That fireplace and that Christmas tree is super thumbs up YOu did a great job!

    Lazyfatcat! I am back to Singapore after 10 days and will catch up on your blog again, don't stop So have the tiles laying started as i am always as anxious as owner to start see the transformation of home renovations. LOL! Looking at your colour laminates and they look lovely especially the baby blues - are these laminates Formica? I am quite attracted to the Lilac and will ask my contractor Desmond for a closer look. Wood is nice but felt the same way as you in that it could be to close to the flooring colours since in my case, my kitchen is bearing the same wood like tile throughout. Stainless countertop.... oh girl.. I like that so much but practicality overules. I want to see your kitchen before deciding mine but I think no possible..

    Thanks for the photo and the update for the installer. Its very kind of you to remember that I have also bought the lock On a side note, is your main door a new one? My main door is still in good condition but the door frame is looking quite worn out and I am advised that door frame needs to be change along with the fire-rated door. Just trying to see if I have other options.

    I was away for a good 10 days for work trip to India and didnt have time to catch up on your progress By the way, the sofa will takes about 2 months I believe so its best to start planning now to round up your move in before CNY

    I have to agree with you on this. This blog has been amazing and people are kind and helpful.and it is wrong to decide what is good and bad as long as they like it..,) I have gain lots of information and short cuts to the renovation because of the people here who are willing to share. I have brick wall too so I have join the crowd as well . And I have bought my hob because someone posted their purchase and I like it and I asked them for reference so aboslutely with you on this. Well said and I apologise for sounding like offstandish. We all know what makes a home and it's definitely not the renovation, it just add to the joy of owning a home ;)so let's go back to renovating our little nest

    Kludi is good quality and very stylish as well. Not saying there is anything wrong with people using Grohe or hansgrohe but there is a difference in the German made and the thai/ China made. Don't believe go feel the difference with the tap level and also see the price difference Peace out

    Very interesting topic because that was exactly what went through my mind when I started reading the t blog a few months ago. Everyone with BTO and everyone doing scandi, industrial and then finally because they are buying everything from TB it becomes scandi-dustrial or whatever. I do appreciate all the input etc but practically everyone bought grohe and hansgrohe from TB which I bought the Germany ones for my home 8 years ago and not many people used it then.I told myself this time round buy any brand also can but grohe because if you visit somebody's house it's probably a grohe The point is, whatever rocks your boat but it's really it important to have a home which reflects your personality . That said, there are a few cool homes in this blog and I love them
