 From what I saw at the hdb myhome showflat unit of 38 sqm, between the living room and the bedroom is a sliding wall. I am not sure if I will be given that sliding door or have to install one myself. Putting a piece of glass as a partition can be nice too instead of the sliding wooden wall. My intention is not to hack anything of. Want it be as pristine as possible. Hacking costs really not cheap from what I have read so far.

I dont like glass panel in the room cos very obvious when dirty with finger prints. if u want to divide the rooms, use your wardrobe to divide it. the back can be used as tv wall although i think 2850 abit short so ur TV cannot be too big.

Actually I got the initial whimsical idea to install a big aquarium to 

divide the living n the bedroom. I really love fishes especially those big fishes. 

I think it's so much hassle to maintain such huge thing. Hv to forgo that. Haha.

I got a new neighbour who install a I think at least 6 ft tank to divide the main door and living room, his is 5 room unit though and yes, big fishes.

1 caution of putting aquarium is the sound of the airpump and motor... esp if use it is in the bedroom...  not advisable lah.

congrats! show ur floorplan?  How to have open concept for bathroom?

Didnt realize I can't hack the toilet walls, wanted to use glass/frosted glass all around to let as much light in as possible. Also thinking to squeeze the toilet, sink and shower along the aircon ledge wall and bring in the bath room closer to the wall so it opens up the living area more. Also want to hack the divider between the living room and bedroom.

Don't think you've the wall length to place everything along the aircon wall though. 

Glass all round is only possible if you're not doing wardrobe and kitchen cabinets along the common wall with the bathroom. As for frosted glass, it doesn't really open the space that much and your guests may not be comfortable using your bathroom as frosted glass still expose a bit  

One way is doing clear glass window with roller blinds installed for privacy. Really open up the space and can be quite cool. Something like this.

That's one concern though I thought about getting those sink + toilet combo that might save some space..Willing to sacrifice to a narrow bath area..then also divide between wet/dry bathroom with glass doors facing living area..think can save about half a metre..dont want the toilet jutting out so much into living area.

Kitchen stuff will be along the wall where the main door is..thought of putting the sink at the windows..though that would hinder the drying of clothes but then again I won't have much laundry..again something I don't mind sacrificing.

I like your layout.  squeezing all 3 in 1 row is challenging.

For sink in kitchen, it has to depends on where all the piping are, which are not shown in the floorplan.  So where you gonna place your sink, your washing machine, have to depends on the piping location, unless u want to do a major overhaul.  Since your kitchen is so squarish, if you dont cook alot, you can even place a small dining table in the kitchen.
