Home@Stirling - Grass on my wall!

Finally got this done after procastinating for the longest time. And I'm so happy that it's finally up - my faux grass wall. Much that i love black and white, but a touch of green is ever so pleasing to the eye. And after I cut down my beloved growing-in-a-rage bamboos, there wasn't much green in the home. So this is truly welcoming!!!

p.r.o.c.e.s.s.
The guys came at 4pm and installed the wall in less than 15mins flat. 
It was so fast!!!! It was like putting up a picture on a wall.

Reno@Holland Ave - A 3 room resale story

TILES SELECTION
TRANSLATING'S A TRANSLATOR'S IDEAL HOME
Searching for the perfect home since he turned the eligible age to purchase a HDB flat, a bachelor came to us some time in early June and wanted us to help him to do up his 3 room HDB at Holland Ave. The ideas for the home were very simple and utilitarian. The important thing was to have a welcoming area for him to watch telly where he can "stone" out and his bedroom to have a study area to put his books and for him to work from home.

And I'm really pleased to say this....
"Reno has started this week and hacking works have completed already."

quote from owner "exciting times" ahead!!!

TGIF! - time to update what have we been up to...
 
Hi there!
Just wanted to update my blog a little on what we have been doing for the past months. I've sort of "neglected" my blog with just photos of renovation progress and not much tinkering/bantering on our design processes at home. Well, we have been rigorously designing and not just visiting sites! hah!
 
For the past 2 months, besides this new BTO flat which we are designing for at Buangkok, we have been re-thinking and churning out ideas for a 3 room resale where you can read about here. and a maisonette at CCK where you can read about it here. and another BTO flat in Yishun at here.
 
It's like a hibernating period for us. Just waiting for the hungry ghost period to be over and BOOM! we are going to start all the renos!!!
 
so hang on tight to your seats cos the progress photos are coming soon fast and furious.
 
hee!
 
xoxo

Reno@T Maisonette - Shoe Cupboard

The shoe cupboard is up for our T Maisonette! Here are some close shots on the pretty laminates which the young couple has chosen.
For the open shelf area, the laminate has a very distressed leather look, very similar colour scheme to the wall tiles which they have chosen for the bathrooms.
For the top and bottom laminates, it's also a kind of fabric but a woven one! like linen. 
The whole combi turned out really well I must say!!! 
Actually this is our second home which we are using fabric looking laminates. 
The first home was done in Toa Payoh, again it was a couple who was brave-hearted to choose a different palette of laminates.
On the insides...Slanted shelves to put the shoes!

Customised "floating" bedframe.


pardon my photos here...due to low lighting and a shaky hand - yes it's me taking all the photos here.
My fault.
