Cosy Countryside Place In The West

[Angel81 1]

Thanks, Angel~

yep, its mysterious. so you also painting just one wall with this color or the whole room? i think it might be abit dark for the whole room to be in this color..

Hee... We going for the whole room leh. I was afraid that it'll be abit too dark too, but hb said that it should be fine. After all, 1.5 wall will be covered with cabinets/wardrobe, 1 large portion of wall will be the windows. So it's mainly the wall behind the bed that's exposed. Hope that hb is right. Aniway, dark=intimate=romantic

Hey, this forum is alive again? Hahaha.. Din know that..

Anyway, got quite some new additions to the house already. Handing over was delayed as there was some last minute requests on my side.

Hope to be able to post new pics up soon~

PS: I think my new house is very white. Should be super difficult to maintain in the future.. hhahahaha

So here's my pics from where I left off previously:

Work started on the living walls which is going to be the main feature

It's going to be wooden strips all the way, was deliberating between this and the traditional half wall style, but ultimately chose this.

Also have a partition separating the dining area from the living area.

Our kitchen sink, complete with a vintage looking tap from Adamas.

Thanks! Now for more pics~

The last time we were at our place, our furniture were being delivered and the finishing of our walls were done.

So now, we more or less have a complete picture of how it will look like when everything is done.

this partition separates the dining area and the living area, and houses our altar (I'm Catholic). in addition, the FS master (yeah, we're Catholics and yet my parents believes in FS) specified that the passage way should be exactly 108cm, and loyd actually did a perfect 108cm gap for us! we were super impressed when we first measured it loh! hahaha! anyway, the top and side gap was to let the dining area be less dark and stuffy. FS master say cannot cut off flow of "qi" also..

for our house, we dun really have a feature wall, as the whole living area is covered with the white wooden strips. initially we were abit concerned if it will look too "kampong", but with the right finishing, and the correct lighting, i think we managed to pull it off (i hope)

and here is our sofa!!! i think the picture speaks for itself, all we can say is we love it! (and finally some color to the house!)

that's for now folks, still got some pics that i will post tomorrow.. still need to decide quickly on the coffee table and the tv console ah...
