My First House @ Ponggol ( Fengshui, Newborn Etc )

[triton 0]

By the way, backtrack a bit. 3 week ago something happen. I am supposed to 动土on Sunday morning before 11 am( my fenshui master recommend this time to avoid the 7 th month ) . But my wife is in confirment. So I went with 4 year old son. I was a bit late so I started my prayer at exactly 11 am. After that I did not wait for the joss stick to burn finish and started knocking on the floor to signify the start of construction. But later that day I had bumped my car. Then my mother and my wife mentioned maybe I did not pray properly or my sequence is incorrect ( should have waited for the joss stick to finished first) . Just pure unlucky or superticious . Up to you to decide

Went to survey lighting and bathroom accessories last weekend with my ID. I wanted to choose led downlight but I am quote 98 for led 4 ft lamp. T5 about 28 per set. In total I need to pay about 2.1k. Luckily my neighbour is a importer of lighting. My neighbor have been quite friendly and so far he is quite honest, he quoted me almost half the price. I think I will try with my neigdbour . Anyway 98 can almost buy 2 set. Once installed, will put up the picture

just about 1 month ago , when the renovation start, we encounter a major challenge. Initally my designer and i decided on building a shower screen

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

It should be quite straight forward. And you just draw a line and it became a shower screen. Unfortunately upon measuring the wall, it is too narrow. It is less than 600mm. Too narrow for a man to be comfortable inside.

Then The designer propose to use a hexagonal design. Another mistake. The door swing inward into the shower area. You need to squeeze into the other corner before you can get in the shower area.

Then serious consideration , i decided to knock down the toilet entrance door and replace it with glass door. In this way, the door to the toilet is shifted. Thus it sorted out the problem. Luckily my ID have been Kind and understanding for me to redo it. Of course need to top it up a bit. I do not know if anyone encountered this same problem?

For the common toilet, we also have slight issue. After we overlay the tiles , then we lay the aircon piping. Then the thick aircon piping and the drainage pipe can be visible. It is so ugly. Then my ID designer help me to overlay it with matching tile

Nice color. Quite nice looking. But I prefer drawer layout because it look more modern. My wife do not like to have so much drawer. So my ID design the door to look like drawer.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

It looks like drawer. But actually most of them are open door style. My granite top have not been placed.

My upper cabinet also meet with some challenge. Initially it is supposed to be flat. But there is 1 ugly fat piping on the top right corner. My designer designer to box it up. Altough slightly off, it still look ok .

But i like to the combination a lot. Black frame with light color door.
