dugong6 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2010 Hi, very cool and nice kitchen.. i show my contractor this picture, suspended cabinet, he quoted me 13ft with top cabinet and the other end of kitchen just the lower part, both side with solid surface, $4500 is it ex? Solid top charge me at $75 per ft... beautifully done! Sob, for mine, I decided to do away cause my yishun unit has no government gas..actually I am still in a mini shock that there are still houses without government gas...even my mum's place at Tiong Bahru that is 30++years hve government gas! Sigh..and considering Yishun is a much younger estate compared to Tiong Bahru..still in my mini shock.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supersimon27 2 Report post Posted January 12, 2010 This lighting is a version of artichoke lamp, nice...I got a replica of artichoke lamp..simply can't afford the real ones... Hi dugong6, Thanks for visiting my thread …. Been so long since the last Visitor … ha lol Mine is not the version of artichoke lamp lah. Artichoke lamp is much more expensive, even the replica one. Personally I also like Artichoke lamp more , for the design and also it’s an Retro Icon. However my wife thinks likewise. Beside Artichoke is bigger and will be a bit over size to hang on top of my dinning table. We had a hard time looking for the perfect lamp (me prefer more fun shape kind of lamp while Rachel prefer crystal. In fact I’m quite surprise that she also like the “discoco lamp” when we saw it at lighting.com.sg . Without second thought I place a deposit before she changes her mind Compare artichoke and Discoco side by side Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SGK 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2010 Full view of my kitchen Hi Simon, I like your kitchen very much. In fact, I showed my ID pictures of your kitchen and told him I want a similar colour scheme, but he told me that glossy laminates, glossy white in particular, will appear uneven under reflected light. May I check with you if you have this problem with your kitchen cabinets? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kiven78 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) sure sure Give me 5 min Seriously bro, me & my wife are starting to be rather turn off by Henry incompetency,it might be due to his over-whelming work on hand or whatever excuses.We paid him good $ (not to mention his price is about the same elsewhere )to do up our house to our basic requirements (which we had discuss at length over a number of meetings over the months)without expecting fantastic results.What we received so far had been most disappointing judging by the way he handle our complains,displaying his enormous ego keep pushing responsibility in the most unapologetic tone - what annoys us most is his library of excuses which simply puts him in a faultless immunity state. For those would be renovators,kindly re-visit my T-blog under all Update sections for details tomorrow... i ll be updating all the cockups 1 by 1 in details tonight for all to judge.For his incompetency, our confidence in his professionism has been completely shattered beyond repair. We appreciate any constructive advices on our next course of actions based on current development. Edited January 12, 2010 by kiven78 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
