Money no enough

spent all on reno

This is the sofa from Florentino. Designed by Italian designer. (Big photo of the guy on the showroom wall).
I've customized it a little by changing the back pillow to a bigger pillow from another Florentino sofa model. - I screwed up his design liao
With that change, the back pillow actually support up to my neck.
Most sofa I've tried feel kinda small, this is BIG. Kinda like 3 bed linked together, that is the main reason I choose this model.

I bought this sofa in the early stages of renovation without really taking into consideration the dimension.

Me any wifey just fell in love with this when we first saw it and knew we just have to have it.

When I measured the living room dimension later, was a bit worried that it won't fit.

But this sofa is designed in 3 protion which allow me to mix and match to fit the living room.

2 portion with hand rest on each end (A portion hand rest on the left side and the other portion, right side).
1 portion no hand rest.

This allows for many placement option.

With all 3 portion, I can set the sofa in L shape ( also can do an inverted L). Another option is to set the sofa in U shape.

If still too big then another option is to take away 1 portion to be used stand alone and the the balance 2 portion to be used as a mini L shape.

Eventually I went with the 1 st option as the living room size fits it nicely.

Only trouble is I need a 60" TV to compliment this sofa
- Any contributors??

They started the price at approx RM7500, you will have to negotiate.

Renovation Updates :- Some loose ends ....

A Dummy / Noob Household Ethernet Networking

During renovation earlier I wanted some wires that transfer internet data that I see used in my office to be incorporated in my house.
At the time I do not really know what I was doing as I am not a technically versed guy.
I was just thinking that wire should transfer faster than wireless and wireless may not reach some areas (eg 1st floor) in the house.
So I asked my electrical wireman contractor to do it for me but he dunno and do not want to do it.
So I went out and bought a box of CAT 5e cable and gotten my wetwork contractor to conceal the cable for me.
The cable were left jutting out of the wall as the wetwork guy dunno how to "fix" the wire end.

This is a case of the blind (me-dunno) leading the blind (Contractor-dunno).

Finally gotten some-one to "fix" the cable end.

These picture location is the wall behind where the UNIFI's BTU and Modem are located.

Loose Dangling CAT 5eCable jutting out from the wall.


The Cable are all attached to Keystone Jack and the Keystone jack to the Faceplate.


The Faceplate is finally attached/cupped to the wall (Inside the wall there is a faceplate wall base -the same thing used by wall power points)


Note: the other end are located in 4 diffrent part of the house where i think I might use it in the future
2 are located behind the living room TV (HyppTV Box, possible small PC, possible Gaming Console)
1 are located on the 1st floor living room (possible extra wifi modem for 1st floor)
1 are located in the Master Bedroom

Finally all the avalaible ports from the current WiFi Modem are connected to the "Ah Beng's Ethernet Network"


Could have done this soooo much better if i knew what I was doing initially.

Errrr.... What is a server ah??? What does it do???? Can use server here ah??? What else can I do to utilise this network thing I have set up here???

Added on April 3, 2012, 8:58 amErrr... what is a switch??
a patch panel, is it something like a faceplate with more keystone jack???

Added on April 3, 2012, 9:04 amErrr... from what I understand from your post you mean to have more than 1 receiving port (keystone jack with faceplate ) at the TV area , 6 port as you listed.
You have 2 ports at your TV area, you use 1 port and have balance 1 port unused.
How does a switch (what is a switch) helps to acheive this?

What is terminate???

Sorry for all the questions here. Technical dummy here.

Glad you enjoyed this thread.
I had a lot of frusturations and also a lot of fun .

Hope your plan for another house comes true and embark on another extreme makeover.

TQ TQ for your congratulations for the new member in my family.

New car .... never thought of that , now still recovering

Never tried toilet yet

Actually, I do not want to paint my roof.
I kinda prefer the current weatherbeaten faded look.

Now with funds shrinking with no direction.... , its gonna be a challenge for me.

I can see you have gone through this phase before, seasoned veteran

If you have read on Pg 1, I've stated

I still "Budget : Don't wanna think about it (scary )"

So even if I can remember all the figures I would not go through this distressing experience

Its grounfos UNI-E. Got it from zheilwane.
Upper storey, lower ground, having a pump is to increase water pressure to your pipes so that all the toilets will have better pressure.
Usually if water source,(Water tank ) is on the roof top, the upper storey has lower water pressure compared to the lower ground. Gravity is the main factor here.

Err.. I dunno what my model is called.
Fron your description, should be the same as mine.
The original colour fabric is dark colour, I changed the fabric.
So far so good. No complaints.
The fabric I choose is surprisingly good with stains.

Yup, that should be the one.

Compliments to your choice.

There is another Gold fabric colour one by the same designer that won an award and is displayed in a gallery somewhere in Europe.(they say wan)
Wanted the fabric, but they say no as the designer specifically forbidden it.

Later. Now facing delay as my @#X&%* contractor delay the final paint job.
