True also.. But the brand carries their reputation and quality of the product as well. So it has to be of certain quality/performance in order to be marketed at that price.

Just hope it's good lah. I just hoping all my products will last me at least 5years, given that most of them arent cheap.
All my electrical appliances (fridge, aircon, washing machine, etc) we also purchased the extended warranty to cover everything for 5years.

at least we dont have to worry anything in this 5years till it spoils after that.

Got some updates on my 3D drawings. this is after selection of the new laminates.
IMO, i think it looks much better now. But I still prefer my living display area to have more of the pop in/out effect as this seems a little too less?

Before vs After amendments:

Living Area

 

 

Kitchen

(This last photo on the service yard

 is quite outdated as the laminates wasnt update. Anyway its just for reference.)
 

 

 

MBR (Pardon the ugly momento wall in 3D, should be nicer in real life? Lol)

I've amended the backing of the wardrobe with the pattern lines. I drew those lines as idont like it to be "boxy" as per the photo.
 

There are a few errors in the 3D:
- wall paint colours not included in most of the 3D
- Bedroom floor colour is incorrect, we selected the Amsterdam Silver, so the floor should look darker.
- missing leaf door for walk-in wardrobe, not sure what happen to the door. It went missing. 

Anyway 3D just for reference, so still ok. So long actual product is better i'm fine.

 

Today, Evorich is doing the vinyl flooring.

and it's DONE. Very fast and good. Will take better pic when i go down.

Hi Clarence,

Your platform bed has storage under the bed, right? How do you access those storage under the bed? Do you need to lift the mattress up first and then open the storage cover plank? isn't this too troublesome? Also I think if you have a king size bed, there is not enough space to get in and out of the bed. You will need to crawl in and out. Do think for your wife when she is pregnant, she will have difficulty getting in and out of the bed. Perhaps a queen size bed is a better option.

Hi @KFC1189

storage under bed yes, it's for those items that we will not take out such as old CD collections, albums, etc. Will have to lift the mattress in order to access the storage.
And for bed size, i only accept king size. Queen size is a no-no as we currently share a queen bed and it's too small for us.

As to crawling in/out, idont really think so. My platform bed + mattress height is = normal bed height + bedframe that you buy outside. Therefore there is not much difference in terms of height.
The overall height is exactly the same as how a storage bed will feel like.

Hope that helps.

HERF

living room is Amsterdam Eggshell, idont know the code. Perhaps you can check evorich website on HERF?

Updates on reno:

1) Pictures of the vinyl flooring by Evorich

(Entrance)
Quite pleased that the tile i selected for my kitchen/entrance kerb matches my Amsterdam Eggshell nicely.
If you see the boxed area, it's actually the un-eveness of the woodgrain tile. Appears that this brand of tile is uneven. However it's not very eyesore, so its still alright.

(Living Area)

(Bomb shelter)
 

(Corridor walkway)


(Bedroom 2)


(Bedroom 3)

(the transition from Living to Bedroom Vinyl)


(MBR)


Guess what, the jointing between corridor to the MBR is SLANTED! 

I used the balance vinyl plank and also the measuring tape to confirm that my eye is not seeing things.

Evorich will come and rectify once my door frame/door is up, so they can get it fix more accurately. Not entirely their fault, it's my ID told them that the door frame will be fixed by me (which in actual fact, ID forgot that it's done by her. *sighs* )

2) Aircon installation completed by Gain City. 
Very professional and they achieve the look/layout that i want. Once everything is concealed it will be ok. Although there's alot of people saying not to conceal aircon piping, incase it leaks or whatever.. well i find it difficult to accept the trunking/wiring exposed.

the MBR aircon piping goes through the bedroom behind, this way the aircon can look like just a standalone unit on the wall nicely.

3) painting completed, pictures can be seen from the other photos above.

4) momento completed

Before vs After


That's all for now.

Tomorrow will be doing the false ceiling/box up (of air con pipings)
