Interior Design Matters

^I don't think you need to hire ID pa para sa cabinet. Yung mga cabinet makers, they can show you designs or you can tell them what you want.

Pag low-ceiling ang living and dining room, anong remedy ang pwede to make the space look bigger? And what kind of lights ang applicable?

[Heatherette]

Sale pala sa Dwell in Megamall. I saw a ghost chair (of course hindi kay Philippe Starck haha) na naka-sale. I want to get it pero hindi ko alam saan ko ilalagay. Pwede kaya siya as accent chair?

[mdy]

^^Thanks sis! I'll take note of those things you've mentioned

install a full length mirror or accent mirrors in a wall so that illusion wise, your space looks bigger.

mga sis baket ganon, ive put double sided insulation foam sa kisame namin, mainit pa din sa room

ok naman ventilation sa room nyo sis? kasi kung my insulation na hindi na dapat mainit.  nagpapaayos din kasi ako ng house now, loft type, sa taas eh naabot ko na ceiling... [textspeak!] sobrang init noong mahal na araw, hinahawakan ko [textspeak!] insulation, wlang init...eh lalo na pag nilagay na kako ang kisame.

[chefron]

now ko lang napansin, di kaya dahil walang pasingawan yung kisame namin sa labas?

[simplybrilliant]

^baka yun nga reason sis.  kasi kelangan din may labasan ng singaw ng hangin eh.

[cindylulu]

@sis chefron, have an exhaust fan installed. 

[cindylulu]

I have another question. I am planning on putting a huge mirror (the size of the wall), pwede kaya or maganda kaya patungan/lagyan ng framed photos? Ibig sabihin nakapatong yung framed photos sa mirror.

i saw a mirror framed by banig photo frames in grassroots at gb5 yesterday and they're so fab! i instantly thought about your post sis. 

[chefron]

is it ok na hindi i-wall mount ang tv under the stairs? plan ko sana sa isang side ilagay tas gawin parang japanese style yung floor, with floor pillows and carpet. kaso hindi na din mahahrap sa living area yung tv

[cindylulu]

^around 25-30k ata.

Hi mga sis, I'm planning to put cove lighting in my condo.. does anyone know someone who installs these type of lighting? based in Makati / Manila? Thank you

[chefron]

yung karpintero ko lang gumawa. medyo mataas naman ba ceiling mo sis?

[cindylulu]

^^our electrician at the condo installed cove lighting all over our unit. pwede na yung electrician or maintenance ng condo ninyo.

[chefron]

diba po need pa magcreate ng cove to conceal the lights? 
if ready na yung ceiling at lights na lang problem, electrician ang need
