Our BTO Home-Part 1


We had applied for our BTO back in 2014. Now fast forward to 2017, its almost time to collect our keys. :)


Do you know where this is? 

I know some other residents have already collected their keys already. We havent received the date of collection yet but it should be end of January/ early February. If it was on my birthday that would be great!


The good thing about your SO being and interior designer is: cost price for reno ;)

We have been planning out our interior designs lately; looking at pinterest, qanvast, going to Courts etc... I dont know about you but i get very excited about home renovations. :) Its the feeling of designing a space all by yourself. 

Now our theme will mostly be black white grey tones, wood and marble. :)
Kompacplus for the kitchen tops, EDL laminates for the cabinets.


Pretty much confirmed on using Milano Marble but i just saw a darker one called Linate Slate!


Cabinets will be dark grey/black. 




We'll have that mirror. Cabinet im still not sure. But zh wants to overlay the shower with wood like that. Tiles maybe as well. 

Below are some of his drawings. I must say his sketches have improved tremendously! 



We're planning on renting 2 of our spare rooms out...though im pretty apprehensive about living with so many strangers. Maybe one room is good too but...the extra money is even better.


Bedroom initial plan is good. But if we have to accomodate our computers, we have to make space for a long desk. So...bye bye bedroom plan.
