Condo Living

Never turn down an invitation to go to your friend's newly renovated condo if he/she invites you. Cos this is what you might get to see & experience ...


Going to his house was like walking into a showroom ! His living room became my favourite as soon as I stepped in !

The first thing that caught my eye was his clever use of different colour and texturised wall-paper to bring out the ambience and classiness. The living room would be normal looking if not for the tinted glass frame, which gives the area a spacious feel and blends well with his colour theme. Looking at the white leather sofa, sleek goat sculpture in gold beside his TV console and lovely chandlier , there is no mistaking that he spent a huge bomb on decorating his house.


As I breezed through his house, cant help but notice dull colours like black, brown complemented with white wallpaper - usually colours which I will usually frown upon, could create such a warm yet uplifting effect ! Not only is the colour scheme themed, all his decorative light pieces are also made of crystals.









Can you now understand why I cant take my hands off the walls ??? The white wallpaper along the corridor leading to the rooms is simply exquisite ! *woooh*












To complete the look, he invested in a set of plates from Tiffany's bamboo collection and bought matching table mats. For the first time in my life, I ate hor fun and fried rice ta-bao from hawker centre on chinaware and crystal plates ! What an experience !!! Can you imagine how stressed I felt trying to be graceful eating hawker food and be mindful not to dirty his cotton tablemat ? .. .. Once should be quite enough really ... give me good old plastic plates anytime... *tsk*tsk*


Oh and not to mention, the centrepiece on the table and roses at the side table were also arranged by him ! What a talented kid = )
