Easter 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2013 Minor updates, didn't really have the time to dropped by our new place due to hectic work schedule. Only managed to went up today and saw that the electrical work and gas piping is done, now so looking forward to our L-shape false ceiling design in the living room, hopefully it will turns out good Gas piping done up with electrical point for hoodLiving room wiring done up for downlights and cove lights, I think it looks kinda funny here because the false ceiling is not up yet.The wiring done up for the passageway as there are going to be 2 downlights there as well.My study room wiring work, I realise there is consealed wiring done up, and my ID is so nice to help me install a switch for my study table lights.I think that's all for now, next progress should be air con piping followed by false ceiling installation.

Easter 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2013 Air con piping was completed, I choose to do it at the outside of the room instead of behind the carpentry work in the 2 rooms. So my ID suggested that I can hide it with a boxup later.All my lightings from taobao consolidated and ready for light fitting. Waiting for one more batch of taobao purchase to arrive on the 20th some preview of the ceiling lights(left) and MBR foyer light(right).Can't wait to see all the carpentry and ceiling up soon, will update soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Easter 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) An exciting day for us as carpentry work is up today. Went down to look at the workmanship as this is the area we spend bulk of our $$ in the reno so DIE DIE must double check haha. When we went in, the carpenter was taking picture of our feature wall, he was quite pleased with the turn out effect and so do us. Love the mosaic feel black laminate for the TV feature wall and shoe cabinet, and the TV console shape. Because we can't really visualise from the 3D drawing initially. But the after effect is very good. Now the pictures will do the talking The black lines on the feature wall are actually black tinted mirror stripes.Our half height shoe cabinet with settee, we will be getting a mat to place below to place our common wear shoes / slippers Master bedroom wardrobe design with our customised accessories installed We chose black and white leather type laminate for the exterior colours and luckily it turns out quite up to our expectationOur study table and cabinet. Quite like the effect it turn out With carpentry done up, house reno is considered at least 70 percent done finally, left light installation, plumbling works and painting Edited July 16, 2013 by Easter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
