the first pix got paw prints on the floor

it's added by you as an effect?

Haha yar, i added the paw prints in photoshop. Since nothing's really done yet, the pictures i took turned out all boring... added the paw prints just for fun (and they look nicer than footprints) =p

really makes the pix look interesting :wub:

now beginning to wonder if i should get photoshop

Chapter 4: Nothing to SEE?!

After being banned from stepping into the house for a week... tiling's all done.

BUT, before i even got to see anything, every inch and every corner was already covered by cardboards! All that was left "open" for view was the "foyer" area. If it wasn't for opening the door... i probably would have nothing to see at all I was trying so hard to peep at any possible edge or corner they might have missed out, but seriously, NOTHING. All covered. Kudos to uncle chua and his team, super duper hardworking and serious in their job...

So all i could snap pictures of.. were these? (Still as dusty as ever...) The lines between the tiles are suppose to be black. But it is SO dusty, they all look white... I guess i'll only get to see how it really looks after the final wash

Not the whole house is laid with black tiles. But that's all we can see so far... And thankfully we didn't lay the whole house with these black tiles... they are SO REFLECTIVE! See the evidence... (uncle chua warned us of wearing skirts... and now i see why...)

So far, from just that little exposed surface we see, the tiling looks good.

Status: Met the carpenter today, chose the color, chose the material, decided on the measurements... just looking forward now. Edited May 3, 2008 by Ennovy

Chapter 5: the COLORS!

The first coat of the intended colors are UP! They sure are efficient and keeping to the schedule as communicated.

Room #1: Intention was to keep things bright and sunshine! It's afterall for a teenager full of vibes and energy! A darker shade of green will be up during the second coating for one wall.. in the mean time, we ain't seeing the whole picture yet. oh well.. till then. Somehow, i feel this room lacks personality.

Room #2: MY ROOM! Right from the beginning, whenever asked for a choice or opinion, i've got only one reply, "I WANT IT DARK". And DARK is what i got! Even though my idea of having a baroque theme room was tarnished, i just had to stick to my dark theme. I'm totally loving the feel of the atmosphere in my newly painted DARK room! Can't help but look at it afew more times when i was there... (Downside: it really does make the room appear smaller. I can live with that, hehe.. i'm so turning gothic soon.)

Room #3: The MBR was designed to be cosy and classy. Well, i'm feeling it already.

My digicam bombed, hence all the lousy picture quality taken with my hp I gave the living room a miss since my hp couldn't capture much of the living room's color anyway. Oh well... Gotta get it fix at habourfront soon

Oh and we went light hunting today! Nothing interesting to me since most of the lights are "downlights" (am i spelling this thing right? ><) And still angry with my digicam being spoilt, i took nil pictures during the light hunt. Guess i'll just snap the pictures when they are delivered or when they're up! Total damage for lights: $1300 (i think? I'm not the one paying =p) Edited May 4, 2008 by Ennovy

Haha me too.. love high units ;D I dread the crowds in orchard too.. but i guess it's a habit for friends around me to say "let's meet in town!".. so staying around the area helps to get my lazy bum outta home!

- if i not wrong, we hav e same floor plan. (u at A, i at E) M thinking of shifting e mbr door, like wat u did.

If u dun mind, mayb can share with mi ur quotation?

Hey Ennovy,

- is ur contractor e same s meowie's?

Eh, i'm not sure which contractor meowie engaged.. But i doubt it. Cos when we ask uncle chua if he has any showroom for us to see see look look abit, he didn't have any in the area. (Now he has US! hehe) He works on mainly private housings.

- can i go kpo kpo?

Sure can, prob the weekends if you are ok with it. We can arrange this nearing the weekends.. But ah, nothing much to see at this point.. =x

- dat 'uncle chua' under ur siggy is e main-con or carpentry works only?

Erm, uncle chua runs the company Hi-Wood which (if i am not wrong) is the main con. He is coordinating the whole reno from design, electricals, painting, carpentry.. and everything.. i suppose he is the main-con..

- can i hav e contacts & info of ur contractor?

I gotta ask my dad for the no. as for info.. i gotta check it out and let you know. Will PM you.

- if i not wrong, we hav e same floor plan. (u at A, i at E) M thinking of shifting e mbr door, like wat u did.

If u dun mind, mayb can share with mi ur quotation?

Shifting the MBR door is quite common for our unit's layout. Some ID which my mum went to initally suggested this too. As for quotation, i've to check with my dad.. anything to do with cash isn't in my boundary. I'm playing advisor! Haha! If you are popping by during the weekends, i can ask if Uncle chua can join us too =)

Chapter 6: I realised...

I never did do up any floorplan! And so i did...

This is base on the initial plan. How much changes, i do not know. We've all things to consider.. the space, the budget.. the many many other considerations.. Once i've got the time, i'll probably do a zoom in of each room with more details. Sounds like fun. Hee!

In the meantime... *Walks off back to my game.. Dota!*

Hey, after seeing your reply i went up to lvl 34 to take a look. I'm not sure if it's your unit.. but i saw a home with really pretty renovation! the walk in area had a wall with baroque sorta prints. If only my parents could adopt more of these baroque styles in the whole house You got a tblog or blog of your reno?
