A lot of people telling me i will regret with the skylight roofing, ok i can’t do anything now. Let me enjoy what i have now then only decide what to do next. My husband chose the the beehive style hexagonal tiles and i think suit the kitchen very much. But maybe not too big. We customized the kitchen cabinet as i wanted the skylight roofing, so we have no choice but to remove all the built-in cabinet by the previous owner. My ideal kitchen is a well-organised kitchen. Thus, i get a lot of containers to keep my stuffs. I chose a single basin kitchen sink and i like it so much, no regret!

If you want your washroom to look neat, then pour soap and shampoo refills into sleek bottles for consistency. Although, it might be a bit troublesome but believe me it’s definitely give you a clean and clutter-free bathroom. Using the mix of yellow and white lighting for a warm looking space.
