Bedroom

Bedrooms these days... small. So here we are with the task of squeezing in a few components:

1. Queen size bed
2. Wardrobe
3. Shuyi's 'oil station'
4. My PC

Bed

We are looking for a no frills solid wood bed. Simple. No tail board though.



Wardrobe

Like most girls, Shuyi dream of having a walk in wardrobe. But as mentioned, the space constrain makes in IMPOSSIBLE to walk into anything. So maybe instead of 'walk in', we settle for an 'open concept' wardrobe can already. The stolmen system from Ikea is the cheapest option around and like it.

Mix and match, can extend to cover the full height of the room. But no doors. My concern is with the humidity coming from the toilet. Maybe we'll install a heavy curtain or something.

Oil station

A place for Shuyi to get her 20 layers of oil on her face. Her request: a simple tall table top and a wall mounted mirror. Maybe something like this.

Hope we can find something like this at some 2nd hand furniture place. A brand new piece would cost a bomb.

Decided on a floating vanity top design. To be done in bronze finish and fitted with white lights.

air con... please don't drip water

The 'oil station' is finally done up and Shuyi loved it.

yea. she loves it

I initially decided on a metallic bronze laminate for the dressing table but was informed that there will be additional costs which seems a tad over the top. So I ended up with this avant garde design (or so the catalog) calls it as I feel that the normal woodgrain ones are oh so boring.
