An Update (Oct 3rd 2011)

False Ceiling and L-Box



The L-box has gone up in the living room and the false ceiling has gone up in our dining room of our apartment recently.

We selected to go with L-box for the living room because we want a ceiling fan. This has more of a utility value because we don't want to have the air-con running most of the time to save on electricity cost. Having a ceiling fan, hopefully, won't affect the aesthetics of our apartment look much.

The false ceiling of the dining area unfortunately had to be lower than the L-box because it had to cover part of the original kitchen ceiling which was lower than the living room. Hopefully when the wall features of the living and dining room go up, they will draw attention away from the discrepancy in ceiling heights.

Kitchen



After the laying of electrical wires and running of water and gas pipes, we are now waiting in anticipation for the kitchen cabinets to come in. Now that we've bought the hob, hood, oven and kitchen sink, the carpenter has the exact measurements for the solid surface kitchen top cut outs. So we are happy to report that the kitchen cabinet fabrication is in good progress. =)

Bathrooms



We are quite impressed by what has been done to the toilets. Boxing up the exposed pipes really made a difference to the outlook. We have ordered 90% of the sanitary fittings so it's a matter of time that they are up.

Light installation is in progress and we are in anticipation that the painting is completed soon so that we have more colors in the photos for our next few updates.
