Bedroom 2: Purple Partition Wall

ICI Harmonious Purple

Bedroom 2 gets a purple wall. This is a partition wall erected to created a small clothes changing area which leads into the bathroom (It's too small to be called a proper walk-in wardrobe).

From our perspective, the partition serves a number of purposes:

• Separate clothes changing area with small area for clothes storage enhances privacy for room users
• Partitioning off part of the room reduces air-conditioner load.
• Place for children to play hide and seek  (inevitable use rather than function I guess)
• Blocks bathroom entrance from view.

We also realised that because the partition blocks the bathroom entrance, there may be a tendency to leave the water heater switch on and not realise it since the red light would not be easily visible from outside the partition. For that reason, we are installing an e-saver timer switch.

Fans

Ceiling Fans

We have lived with ceiling fans all our lives and consider them essential for any tropical home. On the other hand, we don't consider them to be a decorative feature; plain and white is the best. Having said that, we have a preference for KDK and unfortunately, the 56" model of their low profile fan doesn't come in white, so we will have to live with silver. Fortunately the wall of my hi-fi cabinet is silver, so it sort of matches.

This page is also reserved for feedback on medium-term and hopefully  KDK quality is still as good as before :)

We used KDKs for rooms with expected heavy usage and the cheapest Fanco for room with expected low usage:
