zanie98 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2007 (edited) zanie98,Hi shercjwSorry for the late reply as I left my laptop in the office and was on mc for the past few days.My ID's idea was to use mirrors to cover majority of the ugly wall tiles in the toilets that HDB supplied. This will help to make the bathroom look bigger and allow us a 360 degrees view of our bodies. Havent started reno yet so cannot let you see a sample. But Blk 79C 39 Storey 5rm flat is using same ID. If they allow, can go see see look look. !! Edited December 13, 2007 by zanie98 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
