i like the 1st choice more attention to ur wall

First one too..goes better with the feel of ur place..but then..I'll be worried abt dust..possible with drawers? =p

And I vote gray sofa too..it's perhaps more everlasting (but common/boring)..what abt spicing it up with those pink cushions instead? =D

i vote first option!! Keeps the focus on the wall

[greglhc 30]

second option because cables easier to hide heh

[mrmerry 2]

i think the 3rd option will bring some colors into your living room, vote for 3!

Option 2 as the only one that will hide some wires... gotta put ur viewquest and bluray player there. Sound bar on top.

Dunno whether it goes well with ur wall though.

Do take note that the center of the tv screen should only be just below your sitting eye level. ideal is around 10 degrees below your eye horizon. Heh most people either leave the tv too high or too low...

i like the first option too.

do you know how much is the second John Erdos tv console?

[retchlow 7]

how about shorter legs like in option 1 but the body of option 3?

[retchlow 7]

ermm, no $$ cos of your big ticket items like the lovely &tradition lights, SMEG etc ?

HAHAHAHAHA don't remind me

[macuser77 1]

HAHAHAHAHA don't remind me

Hi Retch.

Actually my wife and I thought u made the smart decision by keeping reno cost low, and beautifying your house with nice furniture. If we had more funds we will definitely get the &tradition lights! We needed 3, which is very "xiong".

Hi Vanessa .

Thanks. By the way we'll drop by commune tomorrow as suggested.

Ya,and I realized most guys choose the 2nd or 3rd one. Haha.

Nice hor, but shipping will be a hassle. Apparently this has won some award. Haha.

Option 2 as the only one that will hide some wires... gotta put ur viewquest and bluray player there. Sound bar on top.

Ya but my wife is worried that it has too much of an industrial feel. Will see the real thing tomorrow and post them here.

hi macuser77,

would like to be frank..the brick feature wall is not well done. going by your furniture choices, i believe you are looking for something more rustic than this..now it look like lego clouds on the wall. This is not "subjective" as your contractor termed it . its a matter of skill.

To be honest, it looks rather fake right now. Im hoping by telling you early, you can get your contractor to touch up on it. afterall, this guy is not cheap, if he want to charge higher, you should expect more right? regards.
