This video details the renovations done to a 2 Rm HDB BTO flat at Dakota Breeze, off Old Airport Road. Total renovations costs were S$39,000. Renovation company was "My Design Interiors Pte Ltd".
There was a previous video for this flat here - • HDB BTO 2 Rm Dakota Br...
You can more details before the renovations plus see the floor plan.
The HDB is the Singapore government agency responsible for public housing. A BTO flat, means it's "built to order" - at the point of confirming their purchase, buyers are given some options as to the finishing they want.

@@marinekong235 not really.. I've seen homeowners with deep pocket spending but in the end, people were asking "that's it?" Huge allocation doesn't mean can buy class & taste.. And in this case, the IDs deserved to be paid such amount or more as they've delivered such sterling expertise of their services.

Tastefully furnished flat indeed! I really like the layout of this flat, with the bedroom, hall and kitchen all next to each other, and each with large windows - makes the entire space feel more seamless and bright. Noticed that the bedroom has an additional small window and there is so much space between the bed and the huge 4-door wardrobe - is it because the bedroom can be configured as a bedroom + study/helper's room?
@DonGurugay

Thanks for your comments. Yes this model had an extra small window and the area for the bedroom is slightly larger than earlier versions. It has a larger 48 sq mtr area but a slightly narrower hall. That's an interesting point about it being a possible study/helper's room. Could well be possible.

What happened to it? The living room also looks cosy. I thought it could only fit a 2-seater sofa. But that 3-seater looked ideal. How many inch is the TV if u don't mind me asking?

When I’m at HDB showroom, a lot of people commented that the 37sq living roo. is actually more spacious than the 47sq.....What do you think? Need some opinion from existing owners cos I’m also thinking of getting a 2room bto
@DonGurugay
@DonGurugay Жыл бұрын
Hi, Oliver used My Design Interiors Pte Ltd for the ID. I think you have to be careful when making comparisons between the 37 and 47 sq mtr. A visual look can be tricky. It's best to compare actual dimensions that HDB would provide to you if you are successful in being selected. Once an apartment is furnished the furniture, fittings chosen can make an apartment look small or big.
@avocadoo2529
@avocadoo2529 Жыл бұрын
Yes, HDB reduced the living room width to carve out a "spare bedroom", thus the narrow living room for the new layout for 2 room Type 2. I find this new layout awkard, to say the least. For the smaller Type 1, do not be fooled by the showroom in HDB, which is quite an optimal layout. Look at the HDB BTO brochures and you will realise that the internal passage way (area bounded by main door and bomb shelter) can often occupy a disproportionately amount of area. So study the layout very carefully.
