BunBun 5 Report post Posted April 23, 2008 This one don't need to attempt to get a feature wall to cover the bomb shelter... Insanepoly didn't do anything to cover his bomb shelter. He painted his bomb shelter the same colour as the walls & put wall decals over the wall & door. Nice.. to summ up x|an's words, "why not showcase it"? Hehe, saw her photoshop pics on how to showcase aircon trunking a few ways in a blog yesterday. If can share how much is it let me know ok.

Hehe, saw her photoshop pics on how to showcase aircon trunking a few ways in a blog yesterday.That is what we are thinking initially, but the black think handle super ugly. Not like her nice and slim stainless steel handle. And my wife super don't like the bomb shelter being so obvious. It's the 1st thing she ask me to do something about it and till now move in liao still have not do anything. We were looking at wall decals too. Maybe will reconsider.no la.. only those hollow tiles.. they change some of it.. but still cmi..now uneven floor tiles.. ask them nicely to change.. candy i think you can try to ask.. may be possible.. since unlikely your ID has the ability to uneven-ise the tiles.. really thinking hard.. should cover or not to cover..?? i actually quite okay with the bomb shelter.. just dun like the stupid circular air vent?? any advice??I see! Heehee....The circular air vent can use a board to cover and paster over, than paint over. There is actually 2 holes, 1 facing the living room which HDB cover up liao, and one abv the door. If only HDB cover up the one abv the door and open the one facing the living room, I can just put a big clock to cover it. Now extra job. Haiz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BunBun 5 Report post Posted April 24, 2008 Your door handle is black? All the while thought its steel for most shelter doors (recent flats) as mine is steel. You can find some patterns for the decals to blend in with the black handle while forming a picture or design on the whole wall with the door. It won't be obvious also. That is what we are thinking initially, but the black think handle super ugly. Not like her nice and slim stainless steel handle. And my wife super don't like the bomb shelter being so obvious.
