art00609 1 Report post Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) Yesterday morning, Mr K called me to ask if I was coming over as he would be doing my lightings and fans today...Since I couldn't make it in the afternoon, juz informed him which lights/fans for which roomWell, later in the evening, we went over and were surprised that all our lights & fans were UP!! Clockwise: The hall tracklights/fans (biggest pix), Storeroom light, Walkway tracklights, Wardrobe "milo tins" light, dining "hat" light and lastly kitchen lights As you all can see, I'm into black...hehehe my fans are black, lights are black Wonder what will Mr K surprise us again next week Edited June 8, 2013 by art00609 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macuser77 1 Report post Posted June 10, 2013 Hi , Nice lights. He actually recommended the lights from the same tiong bahru shop.However, as we're not going for the "industrial " look, it'll not be that suitable for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

art00609 1 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 After all the "drawings hunting" @our house, Mr K finally whatsapped me the actual drawings that he intended to do for our carpentary items a few days ago...There are some changes to some of the drawings...but nonetheless, everything going very very very smoothly Clockwise: Kitchen layout, Masterbedroom wardrobe, Living room, Study Room & Toilet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
art00609 1 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) Yesterday, we both went to the house to meet Mr K to confirm our laminates...He asked whether I wanted to take photos of the laminates that I had chosen but I told him no need...Basically our house will be shades of black, white, grey & variety of wood laminates...Duno how they would turn out but definitely looking forward to it! Cos no matter how it would turn out, it will still be OUR home truly After dinner, my husband decided to come over again to test and see how the lights would be at nite...So far, so good...i like the look of the kitchen (the lights against the cement screed) thou hubby mentioned that it might be dark but i just love it! heheh will decide later if I want to change to white light instead for my husband's benefit... so basically, my house is practically done...just waiting for my glass wall, floor laminates (the stock only coming in on the 18th) and my carpentary So far our reno has definitely been a wonderful experience cos both of us can definitely communicate with Mr K easily despite our language barriers and he really knows what we both want for our house...NICE Till the 18th then, when my laminates will be done...
