Icez 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2013 Went shopping for some furniture yesterday, have to get aa rough idea what to buy when my house is ready.1) Make Room - selling industrial/elecktic furniture2) Galanga Living - also selling sone industrial and wood furniture3) Furniture Mall - not impressed by the shops there.4) IMM- quite a nice range of replica designers' furniture.5) OM Joo Seng - like the contemporary furniture pieces there, prices are reasonable too. Having good moving out sales at the moment.6) Hommage - furnitures there dont really suit what I wanted. Saw a yellow standing lamp selling at $500 + there, might suit my blue chairs.7) Egg3 - nice chairs and dining tables they have there. Reasonable prices too!!8) Grafunkt - Love all the furnitures there, especially their shelves and clothes hanger etc, prices are reasonable too!! Will be going back to get some of their itemss.9) Xclusive - Besides Furniture Mall, got our L-shaped sofa set there. The framework of our sofa is designed by Eames, very comfortable seatings! Have to choose the colour of my sofa soon!! Salesperson mentioned ours made of Grade B leather, will any know how to distinguish this? Can't decide between camel or white colour, cos salesperson mentioned10) Comfort Design House - Really the Table and Chair store. Wide varieties of chairs available and we are also able to customise the benches to our preferred size. Prices are affordable too.11) Restore Living - Quite a small shop with refurbished pieces.12) Stevie General store - Lots of quirky and one piece items for the house, from lamps to accessories etc.13) Jurong East - Shop selling recycled wood pieces, would be good if you are into woody feel home.14) Scanteak - Wood pieces too, not what i wanted for my place.Will be going more places to look around for furnitures today and tomorrow. Lots of shops close at 6pm and on Monday. Will update all again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jus4fun 4 Report post Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Decided to engage the referral contractor to do my house main reno. As I've signed the kitchen cabinet with + Space, would have to let them do this one item. Hacking started for my new home.. Some pics to share..Soon they will be tiling my MBR toilet first, then the kitchen and toilet walls. Will share the pics when I have time to go my new home to take some snaps.祝动土开工大吉大利! A good start to a masterpiece in the making in 1-2 months' time! Cheers! Edited February 3, 2013 by jus4fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makanology 29 Report post Posted February 3, 2013 My floor tiles are milky white, something like pale cream and my walls are white.Hmmm I would go for yellow to contrast with the blue, maybe buttery yellow? However this will draw all the attention! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is your favourite furniture shop thus far??I meant some pieces are reasonable, there's definitely some pieces which are way over my budget. Ha.Cant post much pics as I'm not using camera phone, ha.. samsung camera also down.. Will try to post more pics eventually!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icez 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2013 Hmmm I would go for yellow to contrast with the blue, maybe buttery yellow? However this will draw all the attention!Yup I'm also looking at light shades of blue or buttery yellow, but the sofa leather does not offer such colour choices, unless I'm getting fabric sofas. Have you seen leather sofa in buttery yellow? As I would prefer leather sofa over fabric sofa for better comfort and durability. Now I'm thinking of grey or white or coffee/hazel colour.. White is definitely easy to match but the salesperson strongly discouraged it. He said all white sofas will have yellow spots after 8-10months, unavoidable.. and with my kids, might be difficult for maintenance too!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icez 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2013 Nice stools and chairs from Egg3.What about this for my dining table?? Quite cool ya..Also went to check out a few furniture shops today.1) P5 - really nice furnitures, all come with a story, but very expensive prices!! We asked for a pendant light pricing and the pair costs near $16K!!2) Foundry - Love their side tables, high end pricing too.3) Like that One - Always love this shop, always will have something I like when I go there, but my house do not have so much space, too many things I like..ha4) Robocco Kent - Vintage decorative items.5) The GODOWN - Vintage decorative items.Will check out Second Charm and Carpentry and Cook next week when I have the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
