Girlgirl 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2013 Hi. Your crib is cool. I am contemplating doing the old-school type of metal gate that you have. Is it expensive? And would you mind sharing your contact? Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HaiDeChen 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2013 ANd the Kitchen'Finally the kitchen/dining area. Having a kitchen island works out fantastically when friends or family comes over, can all sit around and cook/chat/eat. Overall I have to say I am super satisfied with my contractor. He is Ah Heng of Panerai Decor. He executed my vision fully and was very helpful in helping me solve space planning issues. I will recommend him to any forummers looking for a contractor. Pm me if you want his contact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By the way, jus to back-track a bit, did u reconfig ur master toilet, incl relocate WC? I did not bcos was told WC not possible (can't even rotate?). Given the older layout of our toilets (at least in my case), it was quite challenging to hv an enclosed shower screen + vanity top given the WC position..
