gwenie 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2010 (edited) The common toilet's tiles and everything have to go! And down goes the kitchen wall since we wanted an "open feel" concept... And so is the balcony area... no walls! And linking up MBR and Bedroom 1, there goes the wall between them... The more we hack, the more shiok we feel, so down goes the Study Room's wall too!
