Samich 1 Report post Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) Hi all, after waiting for 4 long years, finally got our key this year. From married, to having 1 daughter and getting key within this 4 years really " drained" my savings lol. So we will need to be very careful and not spend over our budget for our new nest. Before getting our keys, i have already read this forum for ideas and info. So we decided to go for simple , minimalism theme. Below is our floor plan. Simply hate the L wall at the kitchen. Also the door "open" in the middle. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Edited May 1, 2012 by Samich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samich 1 Report post Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) Cont.Because of the short L wall, we have to drop the idea of open concept kitchen. This space also is awkward for placing dining table. So in my mind i have decide to hack this L wall. After we got the HDB letter for key collection during Feb, we started to search for an ID. I actually have the design in my mind but i need a ID to help me improvise and monitor the renovation. So our searching begin. We did not go sourcing too many, in fact only 3-4 and i finally decide to choose Absolook. Reason was because even though they were quite new, i believe they are more " hardworking " and i always believe giving opportunities to newer startup. My ID is YY. A very nice chap.Pre-renoLiving room viewIntend to hack this L wall Edited May 1, 2012 by Samich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samich 1 Report post Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) Renovation Progress - 1st weekI missed taking photos for the first day due to work, nevertheless i managed to take some photos as below from day 2 onwards. I am quite impressed that the new tiles was delivered and hacking of existing tiles, walls was completed in day 1. This included removing of the debris. Very fast!The only issue was that the worker forgot to place corr. paper in the kitchen floor resulting scratches. Anyway my ID said no worry. He will replace for me FOC if there is damages!This was the 2nd day when the existing tiles was hacked . I thought they can laid the new tiles but is is still uneven and need to drill the cement again. Edited May 1, 2012 by Samich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go take a look.oh... seems like they have new chairs design... saw something similar in star furniture and price very reasonable, just some specs not meeting my requirement. usually lush lush is at least 2X higher in price.. GSS is coming.. will check lush lush out again.... thanks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
