Not quite sure but these are the sample. I prefer bright design which feels more comfort (i guess) like scandi or japandi but in love with these kind.

For the bed I would prefer the back wall in black or dark grey to give it some contrast for the rest of objects in the room to stand out. But for living room it's looks comfortable enough to me.

Perhaps post more of the example pics for others to compare and give their opinion here.

Black is classy n cool but i dont think i can accept black, im very attracted to mosquito n prefer bright color actually. I still kinda afraid if tis color would make my room looks dark. i still planning to have a office desk for computer/reading/playing phone.

I got a storeroom door beside my tv, thinking of make it into hidden door, might use the bedroom background design shown in the photo as the surface of my tv background.

Fluted wall panel, however this looks like using wood strip.

Tq. But how about this though?
As I said, i dont need to know the name of the material, fluted or solid, just wondering if someone knows what the general term of this design is called. I usually see it around kitchen bars.

There is one KEY area that house owners always ignorde while getting their renovation works done, then felt much regret after living in the new home.

This KEY design element is Interior Space Planning and Storage Cabinet Layout Arrangement. Without thoughtful layout plan being created prior to renovation works, we will find lots of things are missing and uneasy when carry out many of our daily household activities

Check out some of our blog articles on space planning tips:

Hi ehwee, would like to ask on the recommended hight of the counter top if the main user is 165cm tall. Is drop down the stove area by 10cm recommended? Or is it to raise the sink area for ease of dish washing.

Oh, and another question. Are LED strips on the ceiling and under cabinet easy to maintain? I mean light bulb are easy to swap, but what about LED strips? Do not want to ask electrician to come fix every time it fails.

Following on the LED strips question too. Saw a lot of design suggesting lighting to use LED strips make me thinking about the maintenance part. How easy or expensive to replace the strips when it is due to?

If you're using gas stove then 800mm counter top height is alright. If electrical cooker then 850 to 900mm height is ok.

Nowadays led strips are more advanced, as long as they come with aluminum channel and connected plug for light replacement, make sure your contractor fix them properly and easy access for maintenance, then will be ok.

Can consider T5 Led fluorescent as alternative, easier to replace too.
