Self-Designed Japandi Home Tour of a 4-room HDB Flat in Singapore

Күн бұрын

The renovation of our 4RM HDB BTO resale flat is complete! Come take a tour of our house. We went with a Japandi interior design for our home. We personally love Japandi, Scandinavian, Wabisabi, and Minimalist interior design styles and these are all incorporated in our home. We got a lot of items from Muji since it fits nicely into our home. We did our renovation in 2022 and it cost us about $60K for the renovation excluding furniture and appliances. Even after almost a year since getting our keys, the home continues to be a work in progress as we continue to add things we love. Please also check out the renovation vlogs on our channel for more tips!

Hi! I'm wondering if I should buy the neste28 undermount 70cm or inset top mount sink.. why did you opt for the former?:) What would u recommend ! Any scratches or pitfalls after all these while? Is your faucet Nio ? Does it leak or the pull out spray loosened?:) Thank you!! 😊 😊

@LivingwithSun 8 ай бұрын

We got the Zuhne Modena for the sink. We chose it since the drain is offset and the sloping is good so water drains quickly. As with all steel sinks, there will be scratches over time. We polish the sink once in awhile. Faucet is Nio! No leaks and pull-out spray still works fine.

@eliseww13 7 ай бұрын

Thanks for your advice!! I like the offset drain too but I don't think it comes in non-steel! Would you mind letting us know where to purchase the bathroom drain cover and the round lid ? I can't find it! I dislike using the tile one cos it is too troublesome. Both of you are super thoughtful and practical in all the nome decisions you make ! Well done!! Thank you! 😊🙏

A lot of fengshui master said couple would quarrel more if stove is placed along/opposite with the sink. However, this can be mediated by placing a pot of plant in between. I see you have plenty of space to place one underneath your knife magnet holder, so long as it won't affect the stream of your cooking flow. Just a harmless 2 cents. 😅

It only hangs over a little bit (1cm?). I think it's much easier to use after shifting the faucet handle to face forward since I can turn off the faucet without dripping water on the counter. Also easier to use my left hand to turn off the faucet.

Hello, would you share what’s the logic and construction works for you to successfully conceal the aircon trunking / pipes in the toilet, please? Also, any concerns about “future proofing” in case of any issue that needs it to be accessed? 😊

@LivingwithSun 11 ай бұрын

Ours is a resale HDB flat so we didn't really need to worry about the waterproofing warranty being void. For the additional construction, the aircon installers had to drill a hole in the wall for the drainage pipe to go through. The drainage pipe is actually quite easy to access for maintenance since it's on the aircon ledge together with all the other aircon pipes. The only part that will be hard to access is the pipe that's in the wall. But if there are no pipe joints there then it's very unlikely for there to be any problems like leaking. For the process it's like this: hole drilled -> pipe placed -> tiles placed -> pipe cut I also wrote about it here www.lemon8-app.com/livingwithsun/7253627843979100673
