One of the toughest things to find was a couch to fit the area we hope to designate as the 'Relax Area'. With the workbench and chairs taking up a lot of real estate, there's just not enough room to fit a standard sized sofa.
Thankfully, my contractor Naresh kept an eye open for me and he stumbled upon a possibility today. We shopped around and found that his initial suggestion wasn't really going to work. But as we were driving off, he suddenly recalled a large billboard we passed while driving to the furniture store.
We followed the instructions, made a few wrong turns, and finally ended up in Geylang Lor 23 at Brighton. Thank God he saw the billboard and suggested it because we found what must be one of the hardest sofa to find in Singapore... one that actually is less deep than the standard ones found all over the island.
We managed to gain favour with the people at Brighton and they waived off GST and delivery charges, a savings of about $85. The final cost of the 3-seater sofa was $299. Praise God!
Sofa (and pics of it) to come on Thurs.
