OceanEleven 203 Report post Posted April 29, 2014 After hacking notice a problem. Originally not going to do any false ceiling & Living Room will eat into kitchen size of 1meter.After hacking, found out that the kitchen ceiling wall is lower by around 4 Inch (10cm). Anyone have any suggestion or propose as above ? Seriously, it is not as bad as it seems. It act like a clear segregation between the areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Originally not going to do any false ceiling & Living Room will eat into kitchen size of 1meter.After hacking, found out that the kitchen ceiling wall is lower by around 4 Inch (10cm). Some suggestion I got : 1. Do false ceiling for whole of living room and use downlights2. Design a big piece of platform above dinning area (Which is part of where the Living eat into kitchen)3. Few feature Beams. Anyone have any suggestion or propose as above ? Ah SongzIf I were to suggest, I suggest do half false ceiling with Cove lighting, so no need so many down lights. Buy a better grade of strip light, i tell, it will be very cozy and comfy. My 2 cents all give you. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't tell from the photos. I thought its the kitchen area.Hmm.. are you able to demarcate that 1m area into something else? To make it look as if you purposely "make" the beam like that?
