Case Study 8: Client wanted to do an Additions and Alternations (A & A works) and wanted to seek advice prior to meeting with their architect. The earlier Case Studies 1 to 7 belong to this same example. Where the original layout plan was the starting block for refining the layout plan to suit a family with 3 children and their mother. 1. Gound Level: 2. Level 2 and what to take note of:- 3. Preliminary advice especially of suitable bedrooms for whom Note: Please note that when I have the time, I will be sharing another method of presentation of such a proposal. What matters most is that my comments will certain give a heads-up for you to better plan your new home be it a total built from scratch or an A & A works.

Case Study 7: Imagine all the above case studies are just for a single client! Each and every revision is carefully studied by me and given quick advice if I see that something may not be so correct:

Case Study 6: Clear understanding of Mr and Mrs best study/work directions to aid in planning of their respective tables and chairs. At one glance, client can easily understand their best directions.

Case Study 5: Mum's bedroom at ground floor any issue with the layout proposal? In this instance caution client that it is unhealthy to place the washing machine & or dryer sharing the same wall as mum's bedroom.

Case Study 4: Feng Shui Advice + also practical common sense advice 1. Back door should open inwards not outwards:- 2. Giving common sense advice: A sharp 90 degree turn is not exactly practical in real life. 2.1. Reminded me of a past client who bought a solidly built master bed in Indonesia. As a result, luckily the master bedroom is at the front of the house. The owners managed to get the bed hoisted via a crane by dismantling the windows into their home! 3. Feng Shui advice based on Qi flow aka "wind" into a specific bedroom as shown with the advice on the bottom-left side. While the other advice is based on pure common sense.

Case Study 3: Study the proposed floor plan and giving detailed advice. There is no limit to such advice via Whatsapp or email.

Case Study 2: After going through numerous comments and revisions, I will superimpose the ground floor onto the 2nd storey layout plan to see if there are any potential issues. For example: 1. On the 2nd storey: Is the stove above a bedroom/bed? 2. On the ground level: Is the toilet/WC above the main door? Is an altar directly below the 2nd storey's toilet etc...

The Ideal En Bloc Condos Location Are Districts 9, 10, and 15. After analysing the 87 condos that have gone en bloc between 2016 to 2019, these districts were the most common in terms of location. From here you can see that the districts that developers were most concentrated on were the higher-end districts, namely District 9 (11.5%), District 10 (24.1%) and District 15 (11.5%). District 10 took home the prize of the most popular district, garnering nearly a quarter of all the en bloc condos in the timeframe. The results here are unsurprising for two reasons. Firstly, as these are the more mature districts, they have a greater density of private developments and hence the bigger number of condominiums it would mean a bigger choice for developers to choose from. The second reason is that as these are traditionally the premium districts, they are obviously more in demand by people as well. Source and credit can be found within this attached:-

Hi Master Lee Your response is highly appreciated. Your information is very helpful. I am now making decision of what to do with the house. Many thanks.

Give me another good reason not to buy commercial products in the name of Feng Shui....

Many Feng Shui Masters are actually a Salesperson with a Feng Shui Store in disguise. Recognise that their motive is only to Sell, sell, sell and make$$$, make$$$ make$$$! Ask: Must I buy from YOU?

Many Feng Shui concepts have it's roots in pure Common sense! Many Feng Shui Masters are actually a Salesperson with a Feng Shui Store in disguise. Recognise that their motive is only to Sell, sell, sell and make$$$, make$$$ make$$$! Ask: Must I buy from you? Spread the word to your relatives and friends. When the buying Stops!, the selling Can!

How about roller blinds? 1. Roller blinds often feature cords, whether they are hidden within beads or exposed strings. 2. It is important to ensure that the bed is not positioned near these cords to prevent any accidents. 3. One can envision a scenario where a loose cord could potentially pose a risk of entangling a child's head, highlighting the importance of safety measures.

Next!

Else understand this: W.Y.S.I.W.Y.G. No wonder... the most common used words in the English language is : " I, me, mine. "

I also didn't see the mentioning of every single stack in every development in SGP? Are they bad?

Facilities at Neu @ Novena:- In the past, these two items (especially the 70 lots are a major consideration) 70 carpark lots at Basement 1 & 2. 2 Accessible carpark lots. Today, this is also a selling point.... 22 bicycle lots. Good news is that bicycles especially the expensive ones can also be parked within each unit... LOL!

Many Feng Shui Masters are just a Salesperson trying to sell commercial products. Ask: Must I buy from YOU?

Congratulations! Just T.O.P. Flying Stars Period 8, N3 or S3 facing units as mentioned earlier... How is the frontage of the unit determined? Is it the main entrance door?

The saying goes: Greed begets Greed. We can also make millions from this. But NO! This is totally wrong! Unfortunately, others don't care! LOL
