2 Storey Terrace House renovation 2

This post is found on lowyat forum.

I'm starting to realize that every terrace house is almost the same inside. The room layouts are mostly similar. So it's quite easy to mimic another terrace house's design. I am not sure where this house is though. You can visit the link you follow the conversation that the owner has with the forum-ers. But if you want to find all the pictures as below. You will need to really sift through the thread. Which is about 68 pages long :)

Final product of the house:

The post is not completed yet on Lowyat forum so what I post what is posted so far.

I don't really like the whole house design but I think that the transformation of the whole house is not too bad from the original design. I don't like how the whole house jive together. Feels a bit disjointed.

Reason for this blog

A bit about myself. I am currently working in one of Malaysia's largest Property and Construction company as an Engineer. The reason for me to start this blog is because I will be moving in my own place next year and I am currently looking for renovation ideas. However, it is not very easy to find pictures and ideas easily that are really suited to Malaysia homes. So I thought that this blog will be for me to compile the ideas I find on the internet. I will also post the links of the source. I hope to use this blog to compile ideas that I have for my renovations and hopefully set up a place for people who are similar to me to find renovation ideas.
