renovation updates... Sunday, March 14, 2010 |
The house renovations have entered its later stages of the entire construction process, what people in the field will call "defects" period. Alas, there won't be a DLP, so we gotta identify any eyesores that we can find right now, before the contractors get their full payment.
Anyhowz, some pictures...
The living room floor. I like how the c/s screed turned out. Pic above is how it looks, after the matt-finish sealer has been applied on. The contractor also added a darkening agent, prior to the sealer coat, to enhance the contrast. Must be careful though, it's not as resilient as tiles are, and will be prone to scratches. Guess imperfection / randomness is going to be part and parcel of this house, any wear and tear to this floor will probably add to its richness. jhee positive thinking~!
Master wardrobe, with a small dressor for Chet and a display cabinet (with glass door, yet to be installed at point of time photo was taken) for the little memoirs that we created together / bought in the past decade, and certainly for our future... Big mirror sliding door, I like :) Hidden behind is Ikea's pole system wardrobe...
The look after stepping into the house... dining light heights still need to be adjusted slightly for more randomness / play... Happy how the aircon in the living room turned out as well... we managed to hide all the coolant / drainage pipes rather well throughout the whole house. The red kitchen also turned out nicely, I'll be the 1st to admit that I didn't think it was a good idea in the beginning...
Living room TV console, and small display unit, where my 12" figures / statues will be consolidated. I think all the carpenters hate me by now... for rejecting alot of their works. Alas, I do think that they can only blame their boss, who does have a renegade in him, to say the least.
