That's all the pics I have for now... I will be looking for a cooker hob & hood and an oven tomorrow with my mum since Mr Wan is still away. Hopefully when he comes back we would be able to post better quality pics... That's all for now. Stay tuned for more updates next week....

Updates: Aircon installed, false ceiling completed...

I dropped by the flat today to take more pics to document the progress of the renovation.

Gain City had came down on Monday and Tuesday to installed our new system-4 Mitsubishi Star Mex Inverter aircon. I cant wait to try it out! As for now, have to settle with admiring it only =)

This is the air con that is in the living room. The pic was taken from the main entrance of the house.

A close up shot...

Another close-up shot where you can also see the L-shaped box in the living room area. This is just
outside the MBR.

The aircon in the MBR. You will also notice the area where we had hacked off to connect the MBR to Room 2.

The aircon in Room 2 is placed almost corresponding to the aircon in the MBR.

Lastly, the aircon in Room 3 which is also our Guest Room.

Besides the aircon installation, the wall plastering and false ceiling are completed as well.

Below is the false ceiling near the main entrance at the dining room. We are thinking of putting in drop lights on the left area as we plan to put our dining table there.

Below is the L-shaped box around the living room area. We would be installing a ceiling fan there so there's no false ceiling here.

More pics on the rest of the house in my next entry. Read on!

MBR Toilet: Sneak Preview

When I went to take a look at our place last Saturday, our MBR toilet was still a work in progress. I cant wait to see the finished work. Mr Wan chose the tiles for the MBR and he was quite picky about it.. Heh.. Here's a sneak peak..

The pipes look hideous against the blue tiles. We've already told our ID to conceal them so that it would not become and eyesore.

Below is a pic of the MBR toilet taken from another angle. The whole area is covered in black tiles and this is where the shower area is gonna be. It'll be covered by a shower screen so that the rest of the toilet would not get wet.

Some more pictures of the work in progress

What I like best of our house, is that the kitchen is spacious. Well, not as spacious as some of the bigger, older flats. But, big enough for me to learn how to cook and bake and experiment new recipes. Plus, the white tiles that Mr Wan and I chose adds on to the spacious factor. Hopefully, the brown laminates that I chose for the cabinet won't make it look smaller... Some pics of the kitchen below... The rubbish chute that you see below looks kinda out of place. But, dont worry, it'll be covered up with a cabinet.

Another picture of the kitchen taken from another angle.. Dont you just love the bright white walls?

Here's a picture of the windows that our ID threw in into our reno package for free... Only the glass panels have been installed. The grilles would be installed soon.

And the tiling continues..

As promised, I would upload more pics of the tiling works... Below is a pic of one of the men working on the kitchen wall. Just be warned that the pic quality is not so good cos I had to use my camera phone. Mr Wan had brought our camera along with him.

When I went to take a look at the house last Saturday, the tiling works in the common toilet was almost done. More pics below.. If you look closely, the tiles at the centre portion have concentric designs. It would have been much more nicer if the concentric designs were in black cos it could then contrast with the black floor tiles. Unfortunately, the shop did not have any.

Tiling work begins...

Hubby and I dropped by our flat before he flew off for London on Monday nite, 1 Sept 08. We were quite excited to find out that the men had started tiling the kitchen walls and the common toilet walls. Below is a shot of the common toilet from the entrance of the toilet.

And another pic of the common toilet from another angle.

For the common toilet, Hubby let me decide the colour and type of tiles that I want since he chose what he wanted for the MBR toilet. I chose the white tiles so that it will make the toilet look bigger cos as it is, it is pretty small. And for the floor, I chose black tiles. I dont have pics of the floor yet. I will try to upload more pics once I get hold of my thumbdrive. I forgot to bring it home today. More updates on the progress of the renovation tmrw. Stay tuned!

Me and wifey dropped by the flat the next day to take a quick peek.
