BhongNCorrine 0 Report post Posted May 7, 2007 Went to the LIFESTYLE21 exhibition yesterday, was surprised that the barang barang is offering interior design services as well. Talked to one of their ID, and was very impressed by his ideas and how he helped us to visualize his idea with lots of quick drawing. Very tempted to sign up with him on the spot, because of the EM flat package barang barang is offering. In the end decided not to because we felt that we have not yet see or hear enough.How come there are not many companies offering package deal for EM flat? I only encounter barang barang.Will package deal offer me better bargain for money renovation work! I wonder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope it will make it more easy for me to communicate with them and get a more accurate quotation ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
