Our New House @ Kallang - Choosing Colors & Lights



On sunday, we met up with Steven to review the 3D drawings as well as selecting the materials, wall colors and he also brought us to buy lights from Chelsea, a shop in Jurong East.


Colors

Initially we wanted to use Nippon paint but after looking at the catalogue, we decided to go for ICI instead cos the range of colors from Nippon are quite limited as compared to ICI. Here are the colors that we chose :

Living & Dinning - Bright Passionate[Using Lollipop (Wash & Wear) and Fairy Light(Light & Space)]
Master bedroom - Warm Neutral [Using Culture Pearl(All-in-1) and Bisque (Supreme 3-in-1)]
Adelle room -Pinky [Using Doll House (All-In-1) and Fairy Light(Light & Space)]
Study room - Bluey [Skylight(Light & Space)]

Lights

We drove all the way from Upper Serangoon Road to Jurong East and paid $700+ for the following items :
- Dinning lights (seee above pic - 3 in 1 circle flowery black lights)
- L-box lights (forgotton to take pic but we bought the square type with white frame)
- Kitchen lights (forgotton to take pic but something like a doggy bowl in RED)

Some interesting terminology that we learnt are hamburger(a kind of round and flat light similar to hamburger) and milo gong(round and long like milo container). Nearly gotton hamburger for toilet light but we decided to buy a big round lights from Ikea instead.

We nearly bought our master bedroom light too. But becos it is black color so we hesitated and decided to try our luck around balestier, jalan besar and geylang to see if we get any other alternatives in brown/beige color to match our warm neutral theme. :)

After a week of sourcing we are comtemplating of whether to the one in black circular (see below left pic) or the one in cream fabric(see below right pic). Which one do u think is nice?? ;)
