patsy_sg 1 Report post Posted July 6, 2010 (edited) your place looks really nice! the wall above the table top could do with some small prints? just to liven it up (but I know your wifey is minimalist so may go against her taste!)! love the idea of the picture hangers to act as cable control!! one thing about buying condo's that have lots of built it is that you feel it's "sayang" to redo too much right? And yes, I will add lots and lots and lots of power points next time too.. when I think it's the last time we will move! As it is, bf is already saying he saw a great looking unit in Farrer Road! I told him we should at least stay here for 2 years for all the effort we put in the place! But if a good deal comes.... who knows... will be renotalking again soon the shelves for DVD's was a good idea... would it be nice to have covered it with glass doors to minimize the "cluttered" look? more pics!

Thanks @patsy...... like mentioned earlier, at this juncture, my condo does not have a SINGLE painting, prints, etc - pretty bland... still a condo, not a HOME yet..... wifey want's to live in for a little while, trying to see where or which wall requires what.... prints? paintings? size? colour? We will be visiting a few art gallaries soon. Glass door @ the 2 openings..... kinda difficult now, but I might cut a piece of glass to separate the openings into 2 halves - right now, the top layer DVDs are resting on top of the lower level DVD. Cluttered? hmmm..... I have actually put those same sized DVDs together to ensure they have an even look. Those are just a small percentage of my collection.... changing them frequently from main storage to these 2 openings those I want to watch. Let me see again Oh Oh... forgot to note.... the study room is MY territory... mine... mine.... MINE.... MINE.... hahahahaha!!!!

MINE.... hahahahaha!!!! yeah, good idea to look slowly for pieces that work for the space... for me, since i had the pieces, i designed the house around the art/antiques if the gallery will let you, take a pic of the art, then superimpose it into you wall so you can see what it will look like. and make sure you know the dimensions of the place it will go into before you buy!! let me know if you find nice pieces, am still looking for one for the dining room and master's bedroom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will leave my place bare and plain for the time beingWhat has changed since my last visit in April? Well, the glass door leading into the kitchen SHATTERED 2 months into our stay..... and got the condo management to change it but I insisted to have a wooden frame for support - no more just glass!
