part of the reason why i do is because the original store is way too big . feel that the space is kind of wasted as we don't need such a big store rm.

1. we think we will need the room in the future, especially when we have kids, guests or when our parents decide to move in with us. open concept study room would be more workable if you have more bedrooms. we also have though of installing roller blinds at the tempered glass as a workaround but it is still very inconvenient for the user of the room next time.

2. study room has to be kept very tidy if not it ruins the whole idea.

3. might be bit scary at night to face the dark living/dining area. but plus side is a brighter and spacious feel in the daytime. saw a home with this concept and i absolutely love it.

anyway these are our opinions. actually i would still love to do it if possible. :unsure:

Hi fellow renotalkers, we were planning the placement of our down lights. Just wanna check, for those who had installed the 2 X 13W down lights (double tubes with about 5inch casing)...

1) what is your distance between 2 the down lights?

2) what is your distance of the down light from walls?

3) you use the same down light for your living rm and master bedroom? we were thinking of installing smaller down lights for the master bedroom.

thanks :)

We have confirmed yeak as our contractor. Will bring him to our house this sunday for measurements! :sport-smiley-018:

Hi!u gonna start your reno soon?

Regarding lighting,there is a calculation to calulate the lux level in the room

so that it meets the brighness level. :)

hmm.... how? can teach: :P

going to start work either on the 25th of may or 2nd week of june cause iirc kthc will start on 1st week of june so mine is either before of after that.

looking forward to more pics....mostly carpentary works?

ya.. quite a bit of carpentry.. as we are storage freaks! your progress seems pretty :thumbs up: .. hope can visit your place soon...

Congrates on confirming with Yeak! :D I'm sure Yeak will be able to help you with the downlights planning. Can always run through ur electrical points with him and also double check with the lights shop when you go and buy ur lights. Just bring your floor plan along and they will be able to assist. :)
