False Ceilings and Making Trips

A week has passed, and wow, has the place changed! When we went to the work-site today, the electrical and aircon trunking were all done up, with the workmen touching up the last bits of the false ceiling. Things were looking pretty good as the apartment was slowly taking shape.

The MBR toilet was fully tiled up and it was nice to finally see one "room" taking shape!

Here are some of the shots that I took this morning.:

After visiting the house, we made a quick stop to Sim Siang Choon to buy our toilet bowl and completing our sanitary ware purchase. (The final bill was not huge, but still sizeable and ballooning our budget further). 

After that, we stopped by Massimo at Ubi Tech Park to have a look at our sofas. I'd been looking at their sofas for a while now, with the various designs named after different kinds of Italian pasta. The thing I liked about their sofas was that they look modern, and had a large range of fabrics you could choose from to customize your own sofa. We found a rather nice chaise and a sofa model named Risi and are just waiting for our ID to come down with us a second time to decide on the fabric and color before making our purchase. (Lead time is 4-6weeks, we'd better start moving...)

The Risi. We're customizing a 3m long sofa. (No L please)

We then chanced upon a outdoor furniture store right across the lobby to Massimo named Soflex (with a red "O"). I'd been looking around for nice water features for a while now to no avail and this shop had some really nice stuff that both my wife and I loved right away! This discovery basically made my trip to Ubi Tech Park more worthwhile that I had originally planned it too. "Chancing upon gold"

Nice and unique water feature @ Soflex

Next week, the marble and parquet flooring will begin and last for at least a week and a half. Meanwhile, me and the missus will be out hunting for more stuff for our new home. 

...Time to buy the bed....
