Day 32 of our home renovation project @ Minton, and Day 3 of carpentry installation. We’ve been quite pleased with the internal structures of our various carpentry items in our home – though we also ran into our first hitch along the same today. More details on that later, but here are more pictures again.<\/p>\n

\"Storage
Hannah and Peter’s twin bedframe has four drawers. The ones at the lower-level bed are especially deep too.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"
Beginnings of our TV feature wall and console in our Living Hall. The feature wall will be suspended off the floor too; a design trait that Ling asked for to allow easier mopping.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Four of the storage drawers in the king-sized bedframe revealed, and the other two drawers in the bedside tables.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"asdasda\"
Our half-width TV feature wall in the Master Bedroom. The cavity will hold our existing 46″ Plasma TV. There’s a hidden console just underneath the cavity too with quite a bit of storage space too.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"asdasda\"
The suspended full-height shoe cabinet. It’s too tall to fit to fit into a single picture frame! There are four haversack pigeon holes too.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Daylight
We really liked our 3-in-1 LED downlights. Each of the light’s color temperatures really provide a very different look and feel to the room. Here are the downlights in our Master Bedroom in daylight white…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Cool
… and In cool white, the color temperature we suspect will be the most heavily used…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Warm
… and finally in warm white!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And below is where the carpenter goofed. Check our our intended design as planned for by our designer:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And what the carpenter has installed so far:<\/p>\n

It’s not the different laminate surfaces, since that was an intended choice on our part. But our carpenter had installed the wall-hung cabinet and shelving the wrong way round. It’s done correctly on the opposing side of the room, but I suspect the carpenter had thought we’d been asking for mirror images. Our designer quickly spotted the mistake when he did his rounds this morning, and alerted us immediately of it and assured us he’ll have the carpenter rectify it if we want. We’ll have to make a choice; go with this (I’m actually alright with the cabinets and shelves being mirror opposites, but Ling isn’t LOL), or get it corrected but that might potentially mean some delays to our carpentry installation completion.<\/p>\n

Something to think about for sure very soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
