Lyamani 21 Report post Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Hi all, after a hectic phase of reno, shifting n throwing a housewarming party, we r finally settled down n thot I'll share some completed pics... Here u go..Living / DiningView towards entrance, our completed pebble wash foyer area..Kitchen (pardon the messiness)Other side of kitchenView from svc balconySvc balcony laundry table side, got an ikea table to use as a misc/ laundry table so I can jus fold up my clothes there once they r out from the dryer.. Thankfully after all e scare of insufficient space n odd pipes tat may cause my dryer to stand alone at tis side of e svc balcony, we managed to pull thru our laundry table area haha Edited April 30, 2014 by Lyamani 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyamani 21 Report post Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Our washer n dryer stackedPassageway, n our bomb shelter door painted in dark grey chalkboard grey cos I didn't wanna use stark black which wud have made e passageway look dark n gloomy wit a sudden patch of black so got black+white chalkboard paint n got painter to mix to a dark grey... Turned out very well n blends wit our greyish themed living.. Success n e kids love it!Kids room with bunk bed with pull out unit n study area.. Pardon e darkness cudnt get a e right lightingMBR wardrobe area, also e first thing to see wen entering e room n view from passageway..MBR bed area, with our King storage bed. We feared e whole place might look cluttered n cramped but upon completion it's actually well spaced n enough room for walking n movement. Actually none of e guests said a word tat e house is small or cramped.. Think tat was a success for us.. Space planning works!MBR toilet Edited April 30, 2014 by Lyamani 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyamani 21 Report post Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Common toiletOur now messy bomb shelter with racking doneThat's about it...! Hope our reno blog has shed some light to fellow 3 roomers.. Wud like to add tat u need not fear of having less space to manipulate around etc.. Somehow the space is jus sufficient for our needs.. Not too much excess n definitely not teeny weeny cramped. U gotta plan out ur space n use of space n everything will fall in nicely. Guests actually commented our place looks like a HDB only til e doorway but once stepped in is like a 2 bedroom condo haha... So we believe a beautiful home can be created not jus out of 5rooms or bigger units but it's e quality n space planning of our home.. Space has never been sufficient for people, no matter how huge a house is, ppl still complain of insufficient space n not having enough. Thus let's be contented wit our smaller but no-lack-in-comparison 3 room homes! Edited April 30, 2014 by Lyamani 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Excluding accessories n items...Hi Lyamani, Thank You for the contact. i really love your living room, it has a cozy and homely feeling to it. and the laminate flooring is a spot on decision which u have made.and i have never thought that a common room could actually fit a bunker bed and a study table yet it dont look crampy. and your masterbed room, again a cozy feeling even with a king size bed. Now its time for you to take a break and enjoy your new home while awaiting for you baby. Congrats in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
