strikingreality 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2011 Are all the shortlisted dining tbls available in SG? I ESP like the third one.Btw what kind of look are you going for? There are quite a few inspirations, from which I gather you're going for a raw industrial look with a wood dining table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi SRThanks for dropping by ~yes all these tables are available in SG, the 3rd table are from journeyeast. I checked out the actual pc and it is really very raw - a little outdoor feel. they have many other raw looking tables there too...and you are right... am aiming to go for that look, but I'm not engaging an ID so I hope my personal "designing sense" can get me there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terencetcw 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2011 Hi pinkwhale,Welcome to Reno-T Blog~~Let me suggest some of the design for your layout..1) Your TV console is really long approx 5meter?2) By looking at your L-Sofa to TV distance is only 3m spacing...if you would get a 46" tv, your clearance should be >5m to get the best picture quality~ 3) Study table facing the window.. hmm, i suggest can relocate next to your bed, reason being, nowadays laptops/desktop monitor screen comes with glossy finished. This might cause some glare while doing your work. Moreover, while doing your work in the morning facing the windows might stress your eyesight~ Do consider rainy days as well...wall plug maybe located below your study table? Just my opinion happy planning~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just my opinion happy planning~ Hi Terencetcw, thanks for dropping by and ur suggestion!1) Yes, you are right! the TV console is ard 5meter as I'm planning to use part of it as dinning chairs.. should be ok right?2) thanks for pointing out le.. didnt know about the clearance distance, in this case how many inch TV can i buy 42" ok?3) Ya lo initially i also wanted the study table to be next to the bed facing the wall.. but the FS master say must face window cos is wealth direction wor so now i also abit dunno how to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
