Elica Kitchen Hood and Lights

2010-04-14T08:42:00.000+08:00

we first saw this brand in Kitchen Culture Bangsar.....
really innovative coz it looks like lights but in fact it's a kitchen hood

another avant garde looking design
don't look like kitchen hood right?

my favourite got to be this one....would be nice to have 2 hanging on the kitchen counter
right on top of the induction cooker...

enquired the price from Singapore Regional HQ....
about SGD 3.5k to SGD 6k
T_T
a bit too expensive
think gonna look for another brand

but this one so cantik kan????
sigh.

The first few gadgets...........

2009-11-13T08:55:00.002+08:00

yesterday..........JS bought this Smeg A2 opera cooker with 8 functions
it has 6 gas burners
2 multi function ovens

the main oven has 8 functions *dun ask me wat were they*
while the auxiliary oven has 6 functions *I said dun ask*

the other purchase he made was the Liebherr side by side fridge with a wine chiller

errr yeah even if the whole house is converted to wine storage
it will still be not ENUFF

and so we'll have 2 more Liebherr wine chillers....
3 Bosch wine chillers.....
and a wine room.....*gosh we haven't even do/design anything bout it*

my advise: buy less wines

JS: "then u'll have nothing to drink wor!!!!"

Possible Kitchen Designs

2008-09-18T17:05:00.006+08:00

minimalist with neutral colours,
this is quite homely...
but too "out fr catalogue" look.
I would love to have a center island...
but Kitchen is HIS territory
I have no say >_<
Poggenpohl kitchen design,
designed specially for MEN.

I'm waiting for it to open soon in Msia.
soon soon according to a few editors.

I like this!!!!!

Dunno why I lurve everything black...

HE's making all the decision

I shall wait.

just need to go to Saujana to play golf
>_<well if compared to month of May 08,

I like this home a lot...

it has a built-in floor to ceiling arwana fish tank.

errrr next time I'll try to zoom in and snap pic for u guys,
but with the amount of security cameras at his home...

The View

2008-07-04T17:47:00.012+08:00

I don't believe it...
they don't have any showrooms of the unit we bought....
WHY????
the living hall is approximately 24 x 24
excluding the entrance's foyer.

what am I to do with it?
it's 7 x 12
GAH!!!!

Guess we will remove all the air conditioners *which come with the unit*
and replace with the cassette type?
so much of work.
sigh.

so is a 60" plasma big enough for it?
or is it gonna be tiny in this hall?
currently we are using a 42" plasma.
how big should the sofa set be???
for 10 pax? I dunno.
I need help here.
balcony is about 23 x 11....
a BBQ set is a must
but how big should the dining set at the balcony be????
for 4? for 6???
it's like too big!!!
what else should I put?
Master bed is 25 x 16
excluding the wardrobe
should we have the study area here??
in the bedroom??
more WORK for me????
walk in wardrobe is bout 11 x 7
in the show unit, they have a small dressing table inside.

the mirror opens up to a window..
that area is a floor to ceiling window.
should I follow suit?
GAH!!!
okie at least I know I don't have to worry bout the washroom
I dunno,
maybe we won't like the finishing later.
GAH!

do we ever need this? Shall we remove it?

why do u ever need such huge windows?

GAH!!! I really need help!!
somebody anybody
teman me to do shopping now!!!

JS already list down what he wanted for his kitchen(s)
all the gadgets plus the design..
plus material
:(((((((((((

I am way too behind.

Bedroom + wardrobe + balcony + other rooms = my responsibility

okie wine room is his.

I soooooo got to go to Archidex tmrw.

The Villa

2008-06-25T08:40:00.019+08:00

The Villa is the semi-d luxury development at Serai Saujana

Serai Saujana = The View + The Villa
the steps at the patio
nice but not child-friendly
Emily & Doc were in Malaysia
we had lunch at Kogetsu and brought them to see the showroom
which was just beside the golf course.

the living area with its floor to ceiling door + windows

the dining area looked so spacious
well, it IS spacious.

both were housed in the "main building"

however the dry kitchen is small for me
I mean for JS
with an even smaller kitchen.
Gag!!!
JS won't be able to cook with this kinda space.
then the other living area is a separate building
connected with a bridge
I like the stairways with lots of light.
well if u are lazy like me,
there's a lift for 3 floors.
yes a personal lift for the entire household.

study room at the top floor
master room, looked kinda small
with a walk-in wardrobe
and bath with a view

I just like all the windows
my future maid will have a hard time just cleaning em
walked over the bridge which connected us back to the main building/house
another level for entertainment/relaxing/extra room if u want

I looked down and it's quite high

the other way would be the dining area.

more windows.....

I didn't snap the other rooms at Level 2,
the huge nice state of the art garage,
and other corner of the place.

anyway this is The Villa project,
we bought The View...

The Villa start from RM 4.2 mil onwards.

If The Villa looked small and uninteresting,
I dunno what to expect at The View.

Chanting to myself
be positive be positive be positive

Monkey's domain

2008-05-13T15:12:00.008+08:00

see, didn't I warned ya?
this is meant to be my kingdom!!!!!
and so Monkey drove to see the construction in progress
see those cranes over there?

JS: "Monkeys don't drive"

Zoom in~~~~
sumore~~~~

the place gonna face Hole 18

this is how it looked like fr the white tee box

actually I just lurve the lake.
and green GREen green GREEN views.
:))))))))))))))))

In progress~~~

2008-05-02T08:48:00.001+08:00

yes, only this much.

I guess the foundation works took them 9 months.

Satellite pics

2008-04-27T16:58:00.005+08:00

this was how it looked like last summer
lushy greens on the site.

the land beside was still pretty barren
with only a few bungalows facing the golf course
and last I checked!!!!

all the trees were gone!!!
more bungalows on the other lot.

That bare parcel of land = the development of Serai Saujana
housing The View and The Villa.

Our unit will be facing the lake/pond at hole 18 in Saujana Golf & Country Club.
partially lor coz those bungalows took all the best view liao.
Location map by Serai Saujana developer
pretty accurate huh?

2008-04-22T09:26:00.003+08:00

view at Hole 16

Pic stolen fr JS's iphone

The List

2008-04-20T13:43:00.001+08:00

Dear Family members and beloved Friends,

We are as excited as you are:)
Building a new home is a serious business *affair* for both of us. And we are designing every single square feet and corners and interior with love and care.

We guess it is just nice to prepare u guys with "The List" first while waiting for the new place to be ready. It will be in 2009. *will update on exact month*

We have discussed about it and realized how important "The List" is. Family & friends will be buying lotsa nice things for the new place. *Thank you*. At the same time, we don't want you to be wasting your $$$$ on things that we may not like, which we will chuck it elsewhere and become HISTORY and dust and junks.

This will be the preliminary "The List" and will be updated whenever some new things come across our mind. Here it goes......

1) Coffee Machine
What better brand to settle for than JURA, a swiss brand. We found that it's available at Robinsons and Isetan in Malaysia. Currently no official distributor in Malaysia.
JURA Impressa Z5
important feature must have - can make cappucinno!!!
We guess by 2009, they should have other newer model.

2) Royal Doulton - Gordon Ramsay series (booked by Ms. Veeny, TQ TQ TQ with love)
the Gordon Ramsay White series is simply exquisite!!!

Thank you so much Veeny :)))))))))))))))))))))))))

3) Rinnai BBQ set (booked by Prince C, tq tq tq tq tq)
made in Australia,
can't remember which series is he getting....the 6 burners or the 8 burners?
only him who got licence to grill!!!!
and in this case, JS.

4) Cutleries - Arne Jacobsen/ Georg Jensen
well, we don't think can get the above brands in Malaysia at all, but Georg Jensen...yes in Spore and Jacobsen the famous Danish architect and designer is available in HK.
cutleries set by Arne Jacobsen......JS lurves them so much.
I do not how to appreciate the above....hmmmm looked so urm....
sorry.
salt & pepper grinder by Georg Jensen.
I like!!!!!

5) Dining set for balcony
ok, this is a headache.....coz the balcony measures 23 feet x 11 feet
I think a 6 or 8 seater would be nice,
something suitable for outdoor and long lasting with our tropical weather.
balcony looks like this,
lots of steel + glass.....so dining set should be able to blend in.

6) Meat slicer
ok I have no idea what is this, it's supposed to be a cool sharp gadget to slice your meat
according to the thickness u prefer.
*alwiz seen at supermarket meat counter*

7) Vacuum pack machine
when u have a meat slicer, u'll need this to complement it.
hey Mr. JS, u wanna open a butcherie at home izzit?
hai.....-_-

8) SMEG fridge
ok, we are gonna get a BOSCH fridge but dunno why need another smaller one
like cute baby SMEG.

prollie just too cute it's a must have!!!!
well this item is just etc etc item. Won't die without it.
*Can get at KITCH at Old Klang Road*

yes I guess at this point, some of u may ask....
WHAT ABOUT WINE CHILLERS???

don't worry folks....
we gonna have:
a) 2 built-in Liebherr wine chillers
b) 3 BOSCH wine chillers
c) and a wine room
more than enuff.

9) Food processor/blender - HEAVY DUTY
this is important to JS.
Kindly leave a comment on type and make. I dunno.

10) GOLF Buggy - (Booked by Bernard da Joker, TQ TQ TQ TQ TQ TQ)
still in negotiation with him and Jebsen & Jessen
yeah why need golf buggy???
will tell why in the near future....let's concentrate on "The List" at the moment.

11) Paintings for our empty walls
JS: "Only original copy pls."

I appreciate if u paint me something,
seriously.....it means a lot more.
:)))))))))))))))))

if u intend to, lemme know the canvas size. I'll confirm whether it's feasible or not. Thanks. :)

12) bedsheets????
well let's KIV this first coz I dunno whether is it OK for others to buy this for us.
should be a minimum of 1200 threads.

13) Brabantia bins
we are currently using Brabantia....can't think of any better brands,
if u can lemme us know.
I kinda like this sensor kitchen bin,
JS still prefers the old school step-on-bins.
hmmmm.....

we'll need quite a number this time....
will update on the figures.

14) LSA glasses
the above is LSA Jazz collection,
currently available at Gudang Damansara + Ombak KLCC
no we don't like with swirling or watsoever designs.
this is more like it,
LSA drinking glasses + pitcher.
*I can't remember how many LSA glasses I've broken at home....hai...*
*I've also broken Si Fu Lawrence's LSA Champagne bucket....sorry :(((((*

15) LSA vase
vase would be good too
:)))) also from LSA
LSA vase glass
simple like this will do too!!!!
with flowers they just looked splendid!!!!

16) OSIM chair
ok, just got canceled by Mr. JS
we are getting a THAI maid...*sawadee kaa maam*
so she will doubles as OSIM chair as well.
I want my mani mani massage!!!!!

17) Arne Jacobsen's iconic chair
no massage chair then get this one lor.
I think it is very very expensive, we will see how lar.

Well that's about it for the moment.
I think it's quite a substantial and heavy list already.

coz Mr. JS still wanna add item number

18) Plasma TV - 70 inches
okie this is about freaking 200k.
*I can get another entry level apt*
JS, u want u buy your own kay.

19) Porsche Cayenne Turbo
I think this is too much,
*this cost the amount of our new condo*
u go buy your own ok??

the rest of the items not listed above,
we are buying on our own.
:))))))))))))))

do come back as I'll be updating periodically

Coming soon:
- Layout of our new place
- Pics of construction in progress
- about our new place
- and more!!!!!
