They'll resume work today, but didn't get a chance to go down today (currently staying in Tamp, new home is @ CCK).... hopefully my in-laws snapped some pics hee..

They're supposed to have some 'team meeting' today to discuss on how to go about the reno to cope with the ad-hoc changes as the ID deems necessary like placing the storage heater in another room's top cupboard to allow our ceiling rain shower etc...

Might be dropping by Sungei something to check out the marble tops for our dining table this weekend.. hope that'll go smoothly and see something we like...

Wah lau you totally opposite of me leh

Hi P3nguins,

Tks hee.. actually we were open to anything so we kinda gave some 'freedom' to ID to decide what he felt was best suited for us... hope it matches well with the overall theme though

hi.

are there going to be doors for your mbr and study room? cos from the layout plan earlier, it seems they are door-less (with 1 sliding door, i think) while your latest pics has a door frame in the mbr.
