甜蜜爱窝 定制鞋柜

我们让ID为新家设计的第一样东西的就是鞋柜啦！我一直想要有一个full height的鞋柜，把我所有的鞋子排列整齐，每朝换好衣服就站在鞋柜前慢慢挑选matching shoes~~好幸福哦!!

跟ID和木工师傅讨论后，他们都不建议做full height的鞋柜。一来华人一般觉得鞋柜一定不能高过主人，不吉利的象征，二来他们的意见是太高的鞋柜我也根本不可能每天爬上爬下的去拿鞋啊～

我并不是迷信的人，不过还是得尊重H的想法。再来，在我再三研究后，发现打算做鞋柜的位置如果做full height的可能会有压迫感，因为空间并不是太大，所以还是决定听取他们的意见做160CM高的鞋柜。因为不是full height的关系，我觉得容纳不了所有的鞋子，所以提议要利用两面墙做L-shape的高矮鞋柜：一面墙做160CM的高柜，另一面墙做60CM的矮柜兼seatee with cushion，可以坐着穿鞋，seatee里面还可以受纳更多的鞋子（我真的很天才）。

H，ID和木工师傅一起傻眼。。。这女人还真的想尽办法去搞个鞋柜，倒底要放多少双鞋啊??

我还特别要求以黑玻璃当矮鞋柜的柜门，就像一般鞋店都会在地上放块镜子方便顾客照看。真的，大家看起来都很佩服我的idea!! 完全地绞尽脑汁利用有限空间来达到我美观收纳又实用的目的!!

3个男人难敌一个疯狂爱鞋的女人， 所以我成功了!!

又是特意让ID留一个小空间，让我摆放我的狗狗 (H：你除了鞋多，狗也很多 =_=''')

ID特意设计柜门为通风口，让空气流通。也因为通风口的优良设计，免去了安装手把，大大提高了美观性。实用通风口巧妙融合进鞋柜的设计，simple and nice, 我钟意!!

OK，我承认，这个鞋柜不够我放鞋，I NEED A BIGGER ONE, HONEY!! ;p

甜蜜爱窝 饭厅篇

很多人问为什么会选上这间房子呢？我的回答是，因为我喜欢房子的格局，特别是饭厅。住过SG的人都知道，这里地少人多房子小，通常客厅和饭厅是在同一个大厅。我特别坚持饭厅是饭厅，客厅是客厅，所以才看了那么多间房子啊～

我特别喜欢餐厅式的饭厅，也默默的想好了心目中餐桌餐椅的样式。餐桌啊，一定要是圆的（H和我在这点上有共识），这样一来才可以圆圆满满亲亲爱爱地围在一起吃饭嘛。餐椅，我想找欧陆式米色的餐椅，欧陆式餐椅感觉上充满餐厅的格调，布质椅子可以制造些些家的温馨感(毕竟我们主打温馨路线嘛)，就像下面杂志的一样!

我们打算在饭厅的其中一面墙放上两面茶镜，一前一后，一大一小，做重叠式的的效果。另一面墙则做FEATURE WALL，用两种颜色和质地的材料，也以重叠式和不同大小的板块来营造柔和气质风。下面就是我选择的材料啦：

Snow Stellamatt & PS898S

选好装修用料，接下来就是家具店啦~为了满足挑剔的我，我们逛了好多的家具店，下面是稍满意的餐桌：

1号：白色玻璃不透明桌面和白木制桌脚，看起来不错，不过稍嫌单薄些。。

2号：黑玻璃桌面和白木制桌脚，蛮Modern，不错 ~

3号：黑玻璃桌面，深色全木制桌脚和同色系转盘，看似没什么性格，不过胜在容易配搭

猜我选了那个?? 还是都没选?? :P

最让我头疼的就是餐椅，逛遍所有家具店几乎都没有我要的款式。。要嘛就是皮革质地的（老款啊），要嘛就是绒布质地（不欣赏），我要麻布麻布麻布啊！终于，被我发现了她！

好看吗？简直百分百我要的餐椅啊！麻布料子，椅背嵌入同色圆扭，微弯的后椅脚，超爱这张餐椅的!!

但这餐椅价格稍高，超出我们的预算。我们决定去更多的家具店想看看有没有类似且价格更优惠的餐椅，但是都没有。其他类型的餐椅也都不能入我法眼。H知道我是非此类型餐椅不买，加上他也觉得是张漂亮的餐椅，就说买吧!买吧!!买吧!!!

经过和店家再三的议价，我们终于把它带回Home Sweet Home啦!

看到饭厅搭配美丽餐桌餐椅的效果，H非常的满意，我也觉得带出温馨高贵气质风! 再次过关!（捏把冷汗，饭桌椅钱花的值得啊!!!）

你猜对了吗？我选择了3号餐桌来配搭米色餐椅。

特意让ID留一小幅墙不要装上茶镜，好让我玩WALL STICKER~ 每几个月可换一次，更新饭厅LOOK!

再来张特写，太爱这餐椅了!

甜蜜爱窝 Living Hall

Our home sweet home living area is in rectangle shape with full length windows (Yes, very sad, we don't have balcony...) Basically H have no idea what we going to do with it and he knows that i have something in mind, so he just leave everything to me to decide. I am touched when he said: 你喜欢就好，最重要的你喜欢！

I am indecisive whether to buy or to custom made the TV console. Buying a ready made console of course is much more economical but limited design and not easy to find 8feet long console. Custom made console can be designed 100% to my liking, but the price tag could burst our pocket! After serious consideration and visiting some furniture shops, we find it difficult to find suitabe 8feets console to our liking. Hence, we decide to custom made the TV console and with feature wall. I've selected the following material/colour for the TV feature wall and console:

Silverwind (bottom left) as the feature wall colour and Stone Stellamatt (top right) as TV console colour

Actually i am quite worry about the feature wall colour that i've picked. I intended to have a white feature wall but look at the photo, the colour that i've picked for the feature wall is quite yellowish as it appear in the 3D drawing my ID showed me, not even off white, it is yellowish! Very worry, i called my ID few times and he rest assured me that the combination will be nice and the Silverwind colour will stand out from the living room's wall colour. I trusted him and keep my fingers crossed for this!

And, the end product did not dissapoint me, feature wall looks white! Very satisfied with both TV feature wall and console:

We've choosen to have tea mirror as part of the design as it will match with our dining area's design concept. The handle of the drawers are made from tea glass, when the drawer is closed, you'll see the tea glass as a piece of glass, but it is actually made from 3 individual tea glass. I like this design, it is UNIQUE!

We also decided to have a short platform near the full length window, as our cozy corner, so that we can relax in the weekends afternoon for tea/games/nap. ID recommend dark colour as easy to maintain and platform will look better in dark shade. I wanted to use light colour as i think it will match with the TV feature wall and console. Sometime, i am sturborn and well, i think the dark platform will not match with my TV feature wall, hence, go with light colour and this is the colour & material I've choosed:

Kahlua Oak

I am glad that i've insisted on using light colour, it looks so nice, so different and it is really my style and taste. It match the TV feature wall very well, brighten the living area and make it looks very cozy & with the "ATAS" feel~ Even the ID also agreed that i've made a right choice on the colour~

We went to furniture shopping and found this calf leather Italian designer style sofa:

I love the low seating that give create a modern look and the white colour looks so elegant! The headboard is adjustable, so you can lay your head comfotablely on it. I like the individual sofa seats to be wide and deep, as the small and shallow seat makes me feel my buttock is half on the seat and half outside. The seat have to be wide enough to not give me a feeling that i am "kuet siou" with the people next to me... So, we decided this is what we want, but in L-shape and we choosen to have the safest colour - BLACK. Both H and myself is lazy and we don't want to be cautious when sit on our sofa everyday, well, the idea is we should enjoy and rolling on our sofa!

This is how it looks like in our living area:
3 + 1 seating (L-shape at the right plus 3 extendable seating)

Our rug, H likes to lay on it to watch TV:

Colour is 3tones beige, very smooth and comfortable

I am loving the sheepskin which add on a cozy feeling to my modern looking sofa. There is a reason why i choose to have this sheepskin instead of day pillows. 1st is because day pillow is way too common (seeing it in almost every houses' living area) and very difficult to create "ATAS" feel with it. And i need something that stand out and same time, blend in well with my black sofa. The white sheepskin create a good colour contra with the black sofa and enhance my ATAS theme which white pillow cannot bring out such effects. I am imagining myself laying on it, hugging my dog and watch TV with a cup of tea... so relaxing~~

H want to have a bar counter in the other corner of living area and we've bought this ready made bar counter:

Black and White L-shape Roma Counter

Actually H wanted to have both bar stools in black, but i think that is boring, i want a red bar stools! and here there are my red tulip and black tulip bar stools in closer view:

Next post will be on my favourite Dining Area~ Stay tunned~

甜蜜爱窝 Home Sweet Home

We decided to re-start house viewing around end July2011 and selected this unit early September after viewing more than 50units.. Really have to thank to my agent being so patience and helpful~

I am basically looking at Jurong and Bukit Panjang area. At first, it was fun and i really look forward for each house viewing session after work or during the weekend. As time passed, the units that we viewed really not up to my expectation and the some seller is asking for rediculously high COV despite their unit is old and required major renovation. After numerous viewing, BF and i decided to settle down with this unit in Jurong. Valuation average, COV although abit high but the house is well maintained and no major renovation required, plus we really like the layout, the surronding and location, we negotiate it down abit and decided to give it to the seller~

After waiting for 3months+, we finally got our keys on 16 Dec 2011 and started the renovation immediately! I'll share more about renovation, furniture hunting and every corner of our home sweet home soon!

Cheeers!
