I think the problem lies with me. My photography skill is lousy; angle problem. Our living room too small, sofa too near the TV already. Cannot move the sofa back, if not will block the door opening.

And lastly, our living room is completed with sofa, TV console, and shoe cabinet. I bought the shoe cabinet from nearby neighbourhood furniture shop.

Wah sweet home, feel like wanted to lay down and sleeo

Yes, we are still in our new house, unwilling to go back my parents' house to rest.

The dinning table and chairs look very nice.

Oh, finally the sofa arrives! Nice colour you choose. You don't plan to have a coffee table or at least a small side table?

Don't worry too much about your MBR wardrobe. One day if you don't like it you still can ask your uncle to help you do some magic with it. I think when we were given the laminate samples, we always see them in small pieces so it's hard for us to gauge the aesthetics based on these small samples.

I think because the TV console is not very long, that's why the TV seems to look big?

Nice place.. Congrats to the completion.

I hv been to a hse like urs at serangoon when visit sites while choosing id.. The flat layout v good .. No window by corridor n out of lift only 2 hse?..

Good morning. Thank you all for your wishes. Finally sweet home sweet, home sweet home. We are packing and prepare to move on the auspicious date (tomorrow) and time.

May: I think I know why the TV image looks big. The border of Sony TV is thinner, just like the latest Samsung model with silver or glass trimming. This makes the image wider than other normal TV with thick trimming.

Ong Lai: Remember to post some photos when you buy the chairs.

Valerie: We got the bigger piece of laminate for sample. The sample piece is as big as an A4 size paper, but we didn't consider the layout and we just go ahead with it. Ya, if by the time we have more budget, may decide to have system wardrobe to extend as L-shape so we can put more clothes. Current wardrobe size is too small.

The console length is already very long, 2.2mtr. Anything longer will make the living room looks weird. And also, the tv console has two different laminate colors, therefore what we see is brazilian laminate more obvious than white, so the tv console "looks" shorter. I think even if we want longer console also cannot. Any longer console cannot fit into the lift.

Muska: Yes, our house floor level has only 2 family - me and my neighbour only. Every floor has a lift. Except some neighbours staying on 5, 9, 12, those houses are corridor units, but still two different family shares 1 lift, so corridor units have more privacy too. Our unit has privacy in the sense that the upstairs or downstairs neighbours will not come to our floor level to take lift, so it is more quiet.

Some of the laminate that I wasn't sure of, I also asked for bigger piece. Especially those that have wood grains.... Just to make sure it looks nice when it's a big piece.

So happy for u!!! Can move in tmr.... First night at new home is the best! Really really sweet!!

Yes yes. Lesson one learnt: Ask for big big laminate to see the effect. A4 size laminate is not big enough to see the effect.

Tomorrow need to be in the house before 3PM. By the time settle down, can watch the repeat telecast of 红星大奖 at 4PM which we missed last weekend.
