Part 10: If architects were to be graded, this Type C4 2 Bedroom layout plan gets an A+ grade! 1. Let's not look beyond the "fan" shaped layout plan. 2. Overall, the architect did a fairly good job in the concentration of the two Baths 1 and 2 back-to-back and at one corner of the unit. 3. Plus all the living quarters such as the living room + bedrooms 1 and 2 on one side (frontage) side of the home:

** General Knowledge: How to know if the WC is mounted onto a wall or seated on the toilet floor?" ** For wall mounted WCs there is always a water reservoir as shown highlighted in YELLOW. Note: Below. This is just a sample + based on my past experience. Frankly, have not seen the specifications nor artist illustration of the toilet. Thus please don't rely on my assumptions. Always confirm with your respective Agent on such matters if not sure...

Part 8: Is the infamous mortuary at HSA / SGH Block 9 a concerned for buyers of One Pearl Bank? (I taken this photo before HSA took over Block 9 SGH Mortuary) 1. The Mortuary @ HSA is aligned in a NE / SW direction. In general, NE is considered as the devil's gate (NE) and SW is the devil's backdoor. 2. Even under the Indian Vastu principles, often it is ideal not to have one's Pooja / altar in a NE-SW and vice-versa direction. 3. Generally no issue for MOST PEOPLE. As most humans have sufficient aura or (qi force - some kind of a qi-field). Only the down trodden and often those staying lower floors may have a concern. 3.1. Why lower floors? Those "things" are like humans... as it takes much effort to "fly" towards especially 15 and higher floors... 4. Do avoid hanging a wind chime or wind chimes especially those solid rod types... at One Pearl Bank. LOL 4.1 Reference resource: [Includes a photo of the SGH Mortuary.. before it became HSA .... 4.2 Although One Pearl Bank is not close to a temple, however, this development's resource on the existence of Devil's gate at NE and backdoor SW is an interesting read... Please scroll down to Part 6 - ..... Extract of Part 6:-

Part 7: Pretty obvious from this layout plan the distinctive Odd Shape visible in the room profiles 1. Although some may not add a queen-sized bed, but the odd fit of such a bed in Bedroom 2 is obvious. 2. So is the fan-shape occurring especially in the living room, also. 3. The illustration showing the Dinning table location is ODD. But of course; a tiny dining table can easily be changed or squeezed towards A or B. 4. Master bed-head can see towards the master toilet WC. Frankly, this is not specific to this layout. Many other condos also do face this situation. The easiest "fix" is to close the toilet door when not in use. 5. Does this matter? 5.1. It is safe to apply this common sense approach: https://www.geomancy.net/wiki/The_Concept_of_Maximizing_Marks

Part 6: Should I be concerned with the stove sharing the same wall as a toilet? 1. Frankly, it depends on whom one deals with. 2. Some Feng Shui Masters (FSMs) are ultra conservatives and scream "murder" at the sight of a stove sharing the same wall as a toilet. 3. While I suspect a majority including myself feel that although this is NOT PERFECT, it is nevertheless not a "FATAL error". 3.1. Given that this side of the toilet wall is often the walk-way and on occasions, only a hippo-type of person would spray and wet the entire bathing cubicle! 3.2 Therefore, the above is considered acceptable. 4. As expected, the bedrooms are not pure rectangular. But looking at it.. the shape of the windows and the layout.. the angles are not too acute.. thus suggests that even those off-the-shelf Ikea type of furnitures can do ... in the environment...

Part 5: Where is the common corridor rubbish bin located? 1. Some developments especially those built by CDL often has two common rubbish bins: common and recycle. 2. This development's common rubbish bin(s) is/are somewhere "out-there". 3. Before signing on the dotted line... check it's location, first.

Part 4: Should I consider the afternoon sun for my purchase? 1. Many experienced buyers who had previously stayed in a home affected by afternoon sun often try to avoid staying in such a similar home. 2. Common sense and race profiling 2.1. Frankly, this is not about racialism but more to do with science. 2.2. There were studies that found that races with darker skins are more resistent to skin cancer. 2.3. Thus Chinese with yellow skins [including my whole family], Malays, Indians with brown/chocolate skins are equally less likely to be affected by skin cancer i.e. exposed to afternoon sun more often than not. 2.4. Of course, in theory one could easily use 99.99% UV films on the windows and/or don't open the windows at all... 2.5. Not sure about secondary issues.. like faster kena cataracts in the eyes or not? Or have children that need to be couped up in an afternoon sun room.. while we adults go enjoy an air-con work place. Or You are blessed with ... erh... Para 3. below? Then no sweat.. lah! 3. Greenhouse effect 3. Houses affected by afternoon sun is more prone to heat built-up. Okay, I see! You are rich enough to turn on the air-con 24/7. Then apologies.. "afternoon sun-homes" are not a problem for you. 4. Can you imagine how I look like after 6 months staying there? LOL? Luckily, none of the units have direct afternoon sun. But still ain't it bad enough? Why add salt to my wounds? Huh? Papa: "Why our electricity bill so high?" Mama: "Ask your two children, lah! Air-con, air-con 24/7" Sons x 2: "Don't blame us... see people give you a chicken wing but take away the whole chicken... is true lah!"

Part 3: Shapes and Forms Feng Shui + mixed views 1. The next views for me seems to signify two arcs! Yes, Two arcs! 2. Next, I began to imagine two diamonds (without the rings...yet)... where one of these rings are upside down. 3. The most obvious after drawing the pink and red outlines are two Fans... LOL 4. More importantly, the two concaves that of pink B and red A's stack walls seem to converge towards an imaginery TIP. And that these two halves uniquely does not seem to slice into each other... LOL 5. You may ask? What is your point? 6. Oops! Sorry... no point made. Just too much imaginations... coming from me... LOL... Don't read this if you don't want to .. YAWN! YAWN! 7. BUT WAIT!... 7. Surprisingly, in my opinion this design makes for a pretty good Shapes and Forms Feng Shui.. meaning = "AIRY" "WIND CATCHING"... good Qi flow can be found for all units in this design. And in par with any single tower block flats.

Part 2: Wow! My eyes played a trick on me! 1. A quick glance at the above artist's sketch seems to give an illusion of a circular tower! (At most a slight oval curve). 2. But my eyes are so, so wrong! The tower block is nothing like circular nor exactly oval but rather some kind of an Alien's weapon much like Predator 2's slick hand held human body slicing or from the ancient India war chest... LOL 3. What ever one calls this, for sure looking at the artists sketch all units within this development will be airy and even though Singapore does not always have gale force winds.. this shape can perhaps even withstand the dust storms on Mars! 3.1 The science of Votex Shedding for skyscrapers would certainly give One Pearl Bank a thumbs-UP! 4. In the past, when labour is cheaper; there are several buildings in Singapore that are curved, horse shoe shaped. 5. Singapore's one and only circular HDB tower block in Ang Mo Kio is a good example that in the 1970's - 1980's it can be both costly as well as more time and effort to build "circular" shaped homes. 5.1. No wonder HDB stopped building this design, ever. 5.2. Have yet to see the interior layout plans. Hopefully, it will not be as "painful" as that of the above HDB circular block at 259 Ang Mo Kio! Especially if the units are small and walls are? CURVED! 5.3. Hopefully, the curve of One Pearl Bank seems to be nothing like that of HDB Block 259 Ang Mo Kio's... As mentioned earlier.. did not see the actual layout plan. But I suppose the curve of the outline is more like that of Blk 468A to 468D Sembawang....

The above can result in a "stigma" associated with homes located close the Pasir Gudang, Johor, Malaysia. In fact, when HDB launched several developments in Punggol, a few clients who had tasked me to do a Can or cannot buy avoided selecting any from Punggol. At that time, he zoomed into the Tampines "GREEN..." series of flats instead. Thus it can be possible that in the future, more and more will eventually shun Punggol... And yes, it is very difficult to offset prejudices such as this... even if it may not be true... or an occassional thing.... This is a onemap street plan showning Malaysia's Industrial estate Pasir Gudang is just a stone's throw away from SGP... How come SGP has so many atas universities. And non does a study or thesis on this? Hmm..... If you are a university student or a university researcher... why not do a research paper... on this ..... to get erh.. your Doctorate.. in...

Question: Cecil, can put the stove at this location? Comments: Yes, this is okay If possible the stove and sink should be at least 30cm away. But the photo seems to show that it is quite close... sink slightly further is better

This extended reinforced concrete roof-line above the car porch is allowed today.. And this home owner exactly placed potted plants on this roof-line -
Question: Hi Cecil, if we put dining table at our balcony. Any fengshui indication for our family ? Comments: This is not Feng Shui. More to do with common sense and taboos (if any).. Like external even with external blinds.. can be windy or if blinds are open.. even at 10 storeys can find insects... There is a condern if no invisible grilles... children can climb on the chair and tables and dangerous.. Thus is more of a lifestyle thing...

Morning Master, if the salt water cure is place 1) above the wardrobe in the room next to living room and 2) top level kitchen cabinet above the stove highlighted by the orange circles, near your your original proposed locations, is that fine? As the original proposed locations have difficulty placing them.

Just T.O.P. Good that the common area has clean looks.. nothing like that of Visionaire’s obstacle course. P.S. Sometimes it is better for the developers to concentrate on what they do best than to offer additional packages like smart systems. As often, these smart technologies become outdated as what some residents found out when they received....And such premium packages costing $7K etc... are not cheap...

I visited Seletar Mall, where I found that the Daiyo brand wired bell serves the same function as the MK brand. The complimentary casing is a valuable addition, although it can be omitted if desired. This applies to developments such as Treasure Crest, The Clementi Canopy, The Topiary, and PARC Riviera, among others.
