As for hanging wise it would be either upstairs in our playroom when unused or in the wet area on lower level.A little hassle but you can't have the best of everything now can we Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doubleEM 4 Report post Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) Some UpdatesOur solid top are in today and we are left a little mixed with what we expected versus what we see installed. It's weird because this was somewhat our original selection and it wasn't enough so we swapped and then the end product came back something similar. Still good but a little unexpected I guess haha.Granite TopTaobao LightsWe wanted something different for our common area for the second level since its a small area and traditional lighting are somewhat boring these days in SGP so we went ahead to customize 2 neon lights from TB seller and this is how it looks Let's see how our plumbing installation goes tomorrow. Kitchen mixers and MBR black rain shower and accessories. Before electrician team comes back on Thursday to complete the installations of remaining lights.

Thanks yes the original was a grey granite to fit the color scheme we have. Our sink is Top mount.We settled for a closed kitchen to ensure we will get the approval from HDB for the re-organisation of the floor plan layout. We love the lights too but now have to see after mounting whats the end effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
