muska1119 1 Report post Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) After waiting for close to half a yr since OTP...finally we'll be getting the house key by next Fri 16-Mar. This is our 2nd flat, a block away from my parent's place. ..Ever since the kid's came along, we've been treating the 1st home at Sembawang like a weekend resort ..weekdays is always spent at Whampoa for the past 7 yrs! Finally..we made the decision last year to shift here..It's a 5A with 131sq meter floor area. Edited March 10, 2012 by muska1119 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muska1119 1 Report post Posted March 9, 2012 Received the 3D design from ID last night..the 1st viewing was disaster...all the design was rejected except the std kitchen..The 2nd draft was better..but I find the tv console n feature wall colour a bit too dark for my liking..

I'll tear down e wall (kitchen to balcony) n put big glass door (since kitchen is so big, i'll shorten breath of kitchen.. Increase breath aka area of e balcony)! Haa.. Not sure if my language is understandable anot.. Lol.. Fell in love with this kinda layout since I saw a t blog of an EM like tt.. Haa..
