madcat 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) I've beening browsing RT forum since I signed the purchase option 2 weeks ago.... My agent just sms me that our 1st appointment date will be mid May this year and the floor plan will be send to me next week... Can't wait to start my own T-blog here lol Because I am kinda noob to reno, really hope to receive advice from all the experienced forumers here^^; Below is the floor plan taken by HP My reno ideas as of now: 1) Overhaul both toilets (floor, wall, basically everything) 2) Overhaul kitchen (again, must redo everything) 3) Redo the floor for living area, dining area and 4 bed rooms (still thinking of going for Homogenous 800 x 600 or marble) 4) Build-in Wardrobe in MBR 5) Rebuild the wall and door for study room (The previous owner hack the wall to make it open concept) 6) Display cabinet/Book shelf in study room (yes... finally i can have a customized display cabinet for my collections!) 7) Redo lighting for the whole house (still thinking whether to redo false ceiling or not) 8) still thinking what else to do lol Edited February 21, 2010 by madcat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine is also an EA. Since you are redoing the study room wall, then maybe you want to consider doing glass walls, very classy. That's what I am doing. Wish you a smooth reno ahead .

Since you are redoing the study room wall, then maybe you want to consider doing glass walls, very classy. That's what I am doing. Wish you a smooth reno ahead . hehe.. thanks for the suggestion. The previous owner only hack the wall that with door originally. So i think it is kinda difficult to have glass wall with door. I am thinking of just do a normal wall with door, so that it will prevent my kids from smugle into my treasure room (all my toy collections will be inside my study room LOL).

madcat 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2010 just uploaded my floor plan... taken by HP camera.. will do proper scanning on Monday. Now started trying out floorplanner lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madcat 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2010 After playing with floorplanner, this is my idea for our new home. No hacking of rooms, because wife wants to keep at least 2 bed rooms for our kids and I want to have my own study room to display my toy collections lol the living area near balcony is kinda pack... so does the dining area. Any advice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
