50% to completion

Finally more pictures to share with you for my new house... something new :) My carpentry work has started today. Targeting to be completed by mid of next week or even earlier. Okie, lets see the skeleton of what has been done so far. Well, its about 50% to completion of my reno... tiling done, carpentry on its way... followed by paint works, installation of toiletries, aircon, lights, chemical washing.. we still got to confirmed all the curtains stuff this sunday... I wonder how long it takes to complete the curtains...

I am also considering if we should get our designer to do the shoe rack for us... or shall we get off the rack??? headache... If he is doing the shoe rack for us, we will be delaying the handover... well, i'm not in the hurry to shift in yet... coz i'm not in the hurry to CLEAN UP the house... argh...

This is the work done for my kitchen. My mum is standing there looking out for any flaws. She is complaining about how we made the kitchen looks much smaller, when it supposed to look more spacious after hacking down the wall. It would have looked bigger if we do the conventional type of kitchen. It looks smaller also i have extended the length of my island so that we have a bigger working top! If only HDB has allowed us to hack down the entire wall, we will have a REAL island kitchen... there will be no blockage at that corner. It's really a pity...

The top cabinet has not been installed yet...so only the island and the bottom cabinet is installed.

A closer look of the bottom cabinet.

Now, this is one place i really hope that it can be done up nicely! Our cosy corner...a raised platform. But we are kinda lack of resources, $$$, to buy the necessary for the cosy corner. Well, give us more time and i'm sure we can really make it a cosy place. The plank in the centre is for a purpose, we going to have a tinted glass mirror there for the dining area.

This is the view opposite the platform, this is our bomb shelter. Now its covered!

This is going to be our TV console, one place that we will be spending a lot of time in.

It's tough to take pictures of the wardrobe...so here are some of the pics of how the interior looks like. Guys, I bet you're going to comment that we really made our Master bedroom a really small one, when it's already small enough! But see it in another view, it looks more cosy??? haha okie, i know initially I mentioned that we really love to make more space and try to "enlarge" our rooms. In fact, we did, we managed to enlarge the space of our wardrobe without making use of another room! Our wardrobe took up the space of half our bedroom. Yes, do we have so much clothes??? I don't know, most probably... that happens when 2 vain ppl are going to stay together.
