mr lost, we read thru mag to get ideas, but in the end the ID design is quite diff from wat we r thinking of. & in the end we choose our ID design. but here & there, hving some changes. also crack our head cos too many things to decide... like colors & material... this is more than enough liao lor.
anyone hv those wooden sliding door as kitchen door huh. those that the thread is on top only. my ID suggest that to us, a laminate door with a frosted glass... the door thread is outside the kitchen... is it strange?? not sure if still want to go for tat now after seeing MTDT's kitchen door... how how. any advice?

AK,
What do you mean that the door track is outside the kitchen? If it's outside the kitchen that means it can been seen when you are entering the kitchen is it? Pardon me but that wld be unsightly, isn't it? JUst my personal opinion lah.
My mum's house has wooden top track bi-fold door for her kitchen too but the track is inside the kitchen.

hi pegsfur, the door is a bit like those walk-in wardrobe kind of sliding door. not sure if u get wat i mean. the thread will also be in laminate, same color as the kitchen door. the door got a frosted glass design.
i forgot wat is the reason y it is outside the kitchen. i think becos i got a beam at a corner of the kitchen so my door cannot be inside. i go chk out on this weekend again cos need to confirm on tat. i didnt choose bi-fold door cos i prefer sliding. my kitchen is juz near to my main entrance, so tot hving a laminate door as a kitchen door, may give a perception that it is not the kitchen, but a room or something like tat... was thinking when it is opened, can give tat kind of wow effect... now i dun know if i should go ahead with it... my id said this is quite common for this kind of laminate door with laminate thread.
in fact our mom house is those aluminmum thread w/ glass door. the thread is inside the kitchen also. so mine is quite diff from tat.

You can go to www.hylien.com and view the entertainment room from the Gallery. The first pics on the first and second row will show you the door to the kitchen from entertainment room. The 2nd door is the one that leads to the kitchen. Its a sliding door and the finishing is in veneer.
Glass door is hazardous especially to kids. We have a glass door at the other side of the ent. room and 2 kids have already knocked themselves against it.

Hi Maraquan, steady lah. interior not easy. a lot of area to think of also. but very interesting line i feel.
wow, stephen, not bad sia. the view is very nice. though it may block in future but al least u enjoy the view for now. looks very nice. 34k reno? is your a std or premium. if std, 34k not bad leh cos can see tat the is many carpentary involved.
milo, thanks leh. i jot down the unit & no liao. yah not sure if got time to go down this weekend cos tomorrow need to settle on carpentary stuff w/ contractor & ID so will take up whole day liao. hopefully can make it for this sunday cos still got many stuff not bought yet. really appreciate your help here!
scient, i was thinking of now hving the laminate as white color w/ a bit of frosted glass as my kitchen door. my wall is kind of lily white, so i was thinking if i hv white kitchen door & the thread run outside, it will give a perception that it is not a door but a feature wall... dun know abt the maintainance wise. though i think pegsfer or who huh said hv to clean hands be4 opening... esp after reading newspaper. so not sure if this is feasible. also i was wondering if white laminate door will turn yellowish as time passes. anyone encounter your cabinets turning yellow?? feel your design is cool but cant afford it leh.

Stephen, i would like to see your pictures. My email is [email protected]. Thankz..
Hi AK
Not too sure whether white laminate will turn yellow over time. But if laminate can be easily cleaned, then no problems with white.
Hey Stephen
I see that you have a projector screen. What's the size? Movie buff? Which projector you using? We have one too and its really great when you watch movies.

milo66: coolz! i like the concept of ur bedroom..IDEAL! give votes to wooden grains laminated ledge and tv console as the effect will be very cosy..
hi milo, personal views, i dun quite like the 2 ledge beside your bed. a bit restricting feeling. dun know y. the tv console still ok.
why dun go for 2 mini cabinet like - low type & simple one. will look nice with a lamp there. some more next time if want to shift bed position wont be restricted by that 2 ledge. for 380 buck i feel a bit unworth leh. juz my views.
btw, if u going to view the shop i told u at world trade centre, that shop got a platform feeling type of bedframe with 2 mini cabinet on both side. actually there is 2 designs but i prefer the one with the rounded edge one cos at least if knock into the edge wont hurt (i kind of clumsy so always tot of prevention.. haaha)... look quite nice & as told u can detach the 2 mini cabinet one leh. the shop actually put a lamp or wat on tat mini cabinet so it really caught my eyes. i think the whole thing + bed frame is abt $998 if i rem correctly.

milo66: w/ledge at the side of the bed looks a bit weird since its a platform bed..that's my view but ultimately its all depends on ur preferences. i feel $380 for that 2 piece of thing is expensive..
heard a lot of ppl (including my ID) saying but dunno whether its true anot..anyway, remind u leh(dunno whether u consider this pt anot)..if next time u're preggie u might have difficulties in getting up if ur bed is platform bed...

milo66: i think i misunderstand ur qn...paiseh, i dun support the idea of theledge beside the platform bed..i give votes to the wooden grain laminated flr..
ya tot the ledge very ex and useless looking but w/o it might look empty. ok will go and think abt other alternative.
blue_genie: did tot abt that
i used to sleep on the floor with a mattress at my mum place. now eversince i move and got a bed on my own, i keep falling down the bed in the middle of the night. as in, when i turn , almost fall, will let out a scream and hubby always must catch me...(so paiseh). worried abt preggie time too.

yah. was thinking of hving inside & outside as diff colors. dun know if anyone ever did that... was thinking 2 color may give a diff effect in & out. but of cos, seeing a door by itself of 2 color may look weird, esp if the outside kitchen door is white tat blend with the wall but in the inside in the kitchen is wood grain texture for example. only when install as a whole, people wont really feel the weirdness but something like hey i tot the door is white how come i now see wooden color when stepping in & out... maybe, not too sure also. is it a strange concept?
milo,
I prefer wooden grains for the tv console. As for the 2 suspended side tables, which u refered to as ledge, i remembered my contractor quoted me $300 for 2.
I have a suggestion, instead of suspending, why dun u do a simple low drawer type which sits on the floor so that it sort of complete the look & sets out the area.
Cos like u said, yours is a platform bed, without the side tables it look empty. But platform bed sits on the floor so if u do it suspending, it's looks kind of weird lor ... my personal opinion lah.
Tulips,
I've posted my house pics earlier in the thread leh ....
Lazy to go find the link & post here lah ... u go search can? Sorry hor

AK: my bed is currently queen size. me and hubby quite big size so in the end sleeping is like fighting. shld have gotten a king size instead.
btw regarding your kitchen door, jus to share with you wat my ID proposed. if you see my pic of the MB, there is a sliding door there with a little piece of wood grain. on the other side of the door is my study room which my ID add a small piece of the study table colour. Supposely will be quite nice.
pegsfur: hee hee great mind think alike! that was wat i tot too! will let him know.
btw do you frequent DS? tot i saw some1 with the same nick as you and i receognise coalie from the pic.
think my whole hse concept abit rojak. kichen, tv console, shoe cabinet and bedroom woody, study room plain laminate. goodness! but seriously i like my study room laminate. Dark grey table top with white drawers follow by lime green wall colour.

You've been using this projector for long? Why changing? And which brand you thinking? Our screen size is 110" (16:9). We are using Sony Z2. You sound proof the room? I enjoyed it v much when we watched LOTR.
I saw you have a huge collection of DVDs. Where do you buy them?

Hi aeina,
I brought it from barang barang.
Hi scient,
Been using for 1 yr + liao. Upgrading to DLP projector which is inforcus 4805 or back to panasonic AE500 or sanyo Z2. But my fav is still either inforcus 7200 or Banq 8700 which both are DLP but at 8k to 10k price. but maybe wait till AE700 from pansonic release
I brought most of the DVD frm amazon or when I travel to US.
I thought urs should be sanyo Z2 and not sony Z2?
