Phase B of reno

Here's some photos during Phase B:





Here's my parquet platform where I have a sunk in section for my King size Simmons bed!!!




















My wall feature in the living room.












My half knocked down kitchen.. so that I can have a bigger living but smaller kitchen.. hee hee, i reckon i will not cook often too.












My painter doing his first layer of paint in our living room.











My MBR colour. Dark pinkish-purple.. looks very girly right? HB says this room is meant for me, so must be girlish a bit.. View from parquet














View from my WIW.. Looks big right?? cos 2 rooms into one leh..













My WIW colour. It's actually Gold colour, but doesn't really show in the photos right? Anyway, the colour turn out nice IRL..










The most difficult decision is to choose the colour for my other bedroom... Tentively it will be our guest room or mahjong room, but in future, it will be our kid's room. If paint blue, too boyish, pink too girlish...
so in the end we decided to go for a neutral one.. Green.. This is Willow Green.. Good for eyes also.. ahhaha

Phase A of reno

This is the last photo we taken together before the start of our reno.





















Our black tiles finally arrived! We were so excited though we heard many comments on "huh? how come black tiles? later 'orh lu lu' leh" We wanted something different from the normal white tiles. In fact, the tiles we had chosen wasn't real black. It's dark grey near black with slight glitterings on the tiles..
















My Kitchen View. Part of my kitchen wall was hacked to make my living room bigger. I always wanted to have an open concept kitchen. See the ugly tiles in my kitchen? I am going to plaster them!!!





My super spacious MBR!! I had combine 2nd bedroom with my MBR. Part of this will be my WIW. I really need a big WIW to store all my clothings, bags ..












This photo is taken after tilings with my kitchen wall plaster too. Now the living room is bigger bigger! The commom toilet which is orginally inside the kitchen becomes part of my living room. on the opposite side where the big empty wall in the photo, will be my dining area.

Floor plan

Here's some of my house layout.
A simple 5 room flat. There's a funny edge in my MBR, kinda weird eh? standing at only 110 sq meter, there's nothing much "fanciful" things we can do for our house.. SO SMALL!!! and we still have to pay so much?? GRRRRHHH..
First thing i told my hubby,
1) i want my room to be bigger
2) I want a BIG WIW so that I can arrange all my clothes nicely cos my current wardrobe in my parents place are bursting!!
3) open concept kitchen
4) space, space, and more space!! I don't like my house to be packed with many barang barang..
5)platform simmons bed so that I can laze around everytime.

Well, i think my requirements are pretty reasonable right? hee hee.. So, my hubby takes my requirements into consideration and started his planning. He's the designer of the house. When I say designer, I really mean DESIGNER!! He designers everything from bomb shelter, colour scheme of my house, how to max the limited place we have, kitchen alignment, WIW, platform bed, wall features.. EVERYTHING!! Btw, the ID we hired was Impress 21 Design and Build. Henry who is the boss is extremely PATIENT! He is always trying to do his best to fulfil our request. Anyone who is looking for ID, I definately intro him!!! Thumbs up for his service. The workmanship is good too. hahah.. henry should pay me some advertising fee for praising him like tt. Well, after much discussion, my dearest hubby came out with the layout which show like this.

Hee Hee. We had discussed and here's our "near end" design.

Let's start with my MBR:We combined 2 rooms into one so that my MBR is bigger. A decent space was set aside for WIW. It's a pretty big space. My HB wants me to have a changing wardrobe. Meaning I can have my dressing table in my WIW, walk around in WIW like any Zara and mango Boutique!! We will be having pole system in my WIW and we are getting Alumix to do for us.

That little "odd" corner will be turned into a little cosy corner or maybe a study corner. Not decided yet.

A nice sink in parquet platform for my lovely KING size bed. I will be having a small LCD TV mount on the wall so that i can catch my movies before sleep.

3rd bedroom: I did not do anything to this room. This will be my guest room for now and future for my bb.. hee hee. When that time comes, we will have wall paper with disney characters to make it a lovely kids room.

Next, Kitchen:

Knocked down part of the wall so that we can max our living hall. Will have glass panel to partition so that I can close my door when doing heavy cooking.

Living hall & Dining area:

Wall feature will be as shown. Ideas taken when we are having our coffee in citylink TCC cafe. Will have a arch with fluoresant light behind. Red wall feature for our TV. As for dining area, a full length mirror will be done to make our whole house looks bigger!

Gratitude to my Hubby

well, this is my first post here. Reason why I am here is to share with everyone photos of my love nest. I must first of all give my hb most of the credits. He has been working really hard and putting in much effort in making me a cosy love nest. He said to me " I am going to give you the best of everything. Although this house is not most beautiful and expensive one, I had put in all my best to make this house a lovely and cosy home. I hope you can be looking forward to come back to this cosy home after your tiring day.... " I was really touched when I heard this and gave him a tight hug..
Thank you hubby for everything you do.
