Floors

Hi Again,

Do you know what floors these are? We are in the design phase of building a new house on Maui, and it will be modern plantation. Are you by any chance working with a lady by the name of Andrea on Maui?

Aloha Amy, This home is on Kauai, and I did the interior specifications & design. Don't know Andrea on Maui. The wood floors are a white-washed distressed oak. Good luck with your Maui home :).

David - Thanks! Appreciate that you even drew out the plan. :) You are absolutely right, it's been difficult finding an optimum layout. In fact, our current layout is more or less the same as your plan. Would you have chosen different furniture - a smaller sofa or a different dining table perhaps? (Also, I'm curious: is there a good reason why the architect had the pillar like that?) Mona - Do you mean having a buffet at the entry? I currently do have a sideboard, though it wouldn't fit at the entry - it's about 67" wide by 18" deep. It's currently placed in the middle of the long wall. There's actually still sufficient clearance between it and the 3-seater sofa in David's plan. plague - The household shelter is a local (Singapore) building requirement. Its walls are reinforced and is meant to be a shelter in times of emergency. It can't be removed, and any renovations carried out cannot affect its integrity (there is a list of permitted and prohibited works). Normally it is just used as a pantry or storeroom.

ID recommending vinyl flooring for BTO - Any bad experience?
Q

Look up Forbo Flooring. I think it comes out of Europe. Its a product with " green " credentials and whilst it is used extensively in hospitals and industrial centres it is extremely strong and hard wearing. I think with other good strong design elements in a room a vinyl floor can easily be pulled off as dynamic and urban. Used a lot in say Denmark and Sweden for example with product longevity in mind & positive if you are also environmentally conscious. I am currently looking at Forbo vinyl to be laid in our sunroom, utility room, pantry and entrance way as it is practical, easy to clean and with a great colour can provide a lot of impact. And whilst it can be hard to walk on & can be viewed sometimes as cold visually I think a rug/rugs can remedy this in the colder months. Vinyl & cork went out of fashion a couple of decades ago and they are now popular again for good reason. I hope this gives you confidence in your current ID :)

BTO tiles Floor Finishing Level

I recently got my BTO flat and i’d opted out the HDB Living room and bedroom tiles. We all know that HDB BTO kitchen tiles are not able to opt out. However, I recently found out that if I lay my own tiles for Living Room and Bedroom tiles based on the height/level of my HDB BTO Kitchen tiles, my main door and bedroom doors will not be able to open because door height is longer of about 0.5-1cm and the door bottom will need to be trimmed-off. Is this a defect from HDB Main contractor?

She is building a house in my neighborhood, the house down from me! Can you let me know what you charge for design work? I have built a few homes, but I want this to be my last!! I do pretty well with design, but I am no expert. We are submitting plans next week, so no rush. I would love to bounce windows, doors, flooring, and roof off of you.
