Updates for November 2007

Some little updates:

• High bar-table

Our high bar-table has arrived, it's placed at the balcony. Pair up with the high bar-chairs, its a good place for smoking corner, surfing, la-kopi and al-fresco dining. kekez...

• HDB EA Showflat

We have visited HDB's EA showflat at a couple of blocks away. I think it's theme is Shock Modernalisation or something like that. We realised in order to have the WOW factor, you have to switch on every single lightings you have in the house. :-p The flat design has something which we yearn to do but never do. That is to cut a window at the Study Room and replaced with thick glass as wall. It'll create a very bright and spacious effect. The showflat color theme is grey-ish white, grey and shocking Pink.

• Curtains

We have confirmed our curtains order (finally!!!), and did the site/windows measurement. Spent 2 hours at the curtain shop. Curtains will be installed 2 weeks later. This issue has been delayed for a long while. What we have ordered:

- 2-tone steel grey base color with glossy silver color highlight night curtain+ white color translucent day curtain for Living Room (3 big sliding doors @ Blacony area)

- Light grey base color with blueish grey color vertical stripes for Study Room's bay window

- 2-tone glossy red base color with S-curvy matt darker red stripes for MBR+BR2 wall-to-wall window.

- Curtain track (only) for BR3 as there is no occupant.

- 3m black-silver 2tones string curtain for dining hall seperator with curtain tracks.

Thoughts: We feel that the 2 tones effect on curtains will create a better 2D effects with tied up, ie less boring from the typical 1 solid color curtain. All the materails are washing machine washable, est. 75% sunlight blockage. Will be givien simplified plastic hook and tied-bands made from same material.
