Black-lined box A (The left one) previously was a sliding window, then teared it out and close up the hole. Black-lined box B, the door will be removed.
One of the future wanna-do thing is to change the staircase hand holder to curvy stainless steel kind and may be put up a wall to separate the staircase from being seen from the living area.
Before this, under the stair case is just empty open area, so I decided to build a store room here. This wall is newly put up and will serves as a "firewall" between front area (living room and upstair) and back area (dining, kitchen, etc). This shall be the second barrier just in case intruder entered from the back (touch wood!). The door haven't install yet, waiting for plaster ceiling and the rest.
The wall between the bedroom downstair and the toilet knocked down to enlarge the room area. Toilet is shifted to the area beside wet kitchen, near to the back door.
More ugly scenes after the knocking.
Previous toilet location and the new wall beside. I still thinking what to put to cover that huge pipe. Plaster ceiling will cover the top part, but the vertical part is tricky one. The wall at the back of the house is teared down to enlarge the dining area and dry kitchen.
One more column is removed. See the remaining steel bar there? The extension at the back is comprehensive one with cements, steel bars, L bars... and underground wood foundation (The wood put in vertically into the ground, I don't know the tech term for that). I seen before back extension (my neighbour) without all these strength enhancements, but I can't bear the risk of house collapsing, well maybe due to earth quake.
Overall look at the back. Wet kitchen at the end, toilet beside the wet kitchen. Emm... maybe dry kitchen at the right and dining area at the left (or vice versa?). Plan to install a sliding door separating dry and wet kitchen, not sure though. Maybe another "firewall" between back and middle part? LOL, then the middle area (dining and dry kitchen) is like the DMZ zone. Woo hoo.
