confessing here .. i think i rem a temple somewhere, coz its always v vibrant during festival, but might be some dist. They stay blk 21something near beatty sec there.

Ha ha, that is really some dist away from the main PP town, divided by Kallang River... Then how come u know the indian temple leh?

Anyway, do drop by.. nice & quite neighbourhood currently.. that is, until URA decided to build a commercial complex on the big open space outside the MRT Stn under the master plan i understd.. :(

Ya, shopping cum residential on top (http://www.singaporenewlaunchguru.com/upper-serangoon-meyappa-chettiar-commecial-residencial-site/)

I dun like leh, It's already very convenient wif Nex, Bendemeer HDB mall & City Sq Mall jus 1-2 mrt stops either way. PP is so small, and there is only a one-loop service rd into the estate. With the SC, sure conjested & crowded one lor (think Serangoon Central wif Nex).. Then my quite & nice neighbourhood will be gone.. :( Or either the SC will not b popular wif the neighbouring bigger SCs.. the plot of land not really very big anyway.. heard they r going vertical..)

=( ok if they are going vertical they may end up blocking abit? but on the positive side proximity to a mall can enhance ur flat value !

had a hiatus from the thread for a while. Been busy sourcing for furniture (yup i know im doing this kinda backwards). Will talk abt that in the next post.

Just wanted to share my experience with a FSM that went to the house.

First point, seek the FSM out first before engaging the ID on the design and layout of the home. I know it sounds terribly obvious, but we went the other way round (seem to be doing many things backward haha). This was because we intitally did not want to consult anyone, but he is a family friend and so happens he came by.

Some tips he provided

1. Find the "God of Kitchen" (Shi Shen) position in your house (usually north) and place your stove/hob there. Ours was next to the service yard window hence we had to go for our second choice. *boo*..

2. Hob should not face the main door, fridge, sink. The former due to the fact it will create negative influences. Sink/fridge however can face the oven dpding on how particular you are.

3. Study table should not face South West (Si-bei) - not positive for career.. im linking this to the phrase eat si bei wind i.e. no job

4. Mirror should not reflect study room, work areas, fire etc as they are not elements you want to double. and no mirros in the mBR

5. Bed should not face west.. haha obvious connotations.

6. This is person dpt but we were told to go for light colours which is fine by us haha.

7. We should let in more light into the kitchen.

So given all these advice, we had to drastically change our original 3Ds including doing away with the full height shoe cabinet at the kitchen.

Major pain!

Thankfully, ive come to appreciate my ID alot more. She is patient to the max, despite being with a child and a mum, she meets us for additional discussions on weekends and after work on weekdays.

we just concluded another 1.5 hrs yest. depsite the changes she remained open to our issues, ideas,etc and was very willing to make them, suggest solutions etc.

Its abit of a plug for her here, but my take is we are quite a picky and problematic bunch so if she can handle us,,,, anywayz we really do love her!

Waiting for the 3Ds now !! counting down to key collection whee..

What your FSM said is almost the same for mine. :blink:

Probably it's some common knowledge by now. Mirrors in MBR will include TV as well. :~

Plus I had to move all my electrical point from one side of the room to the other due to the direction of bed and also sofa in the living room.

We totally had to hide the TV in the wardrobe and close it every night in order to hide the "mirror" inside. Wanted to install a 47" but it eats too much into the space and also difficult get it to be placed in the middle when aligned with the bed. Therefore settling for 42".
