HDB Skyville @ Dawson

[Cecil Lee]

Finally, it took around 5 years for this development to be completed.

If one were blind folded, and brought to the Watercolours EC in Pasir Ris vs this development; one may be mistaken that HDB Skyville @ Dawson was the "EC" while Watercolours could be a HDB development.

The only difference is that Watercolours Executive Condo has swimming pools while Skyville @ Dawson is all about sky bridges, nice curves; quality built and external trim.

HDB Skyville's three blocks also have commanding views.

The next door neighbour of HDB Skyville @ Dawson is the three blocks of HDB Skyterrace @ Dawson.

Both are equally impressive especially on the external fa?ade - view.

Even if an architect is only paid to design the interior layout; at least; the architect should try to put themselves "in the shoes of home owner".

How true; always that: "We stay there, you don't applies!".

Just take a look at this HDB 4 bedroom flat layout in some of the stacks of Skyville @ Dawson. (See attachment).

A. THE LIVING ROOM

1. Although the living room width is of a generous or rather "too generous" size; instead; the architect should have should have an allowance at marking in red "A" for a reasonable sized dining table, there.

2. As a result of this no brainer layout; placing a small narrow dining table at C is a poor choice. And looks like one has to be "forced" to place the dining table at marking B = no choice!

2.1. Most of the time Chinese don't like especially for privacy issue; place the dining table facing the main door. Even if so, one may have to (and some say "forced to")place a partition .. to screen the dining table from the door.

2.2. In Feng Shui, if a dining table faces the passageway leading into the master bedroom;under symbolism; it is inauspicious if things like a scissor or forks or knifes or any sharp object faces the master bedroom door. Which may result in "accidents" and cuts for those sleeping in that bedroom.

B. THE MASTER BEDROOM

3.1 The master bedroom is equally broad. But it is not feasible to place a full length wardrope at marking in red "F". If so, even if one uses a queen sized bed; the walkway to the master window is pretty tight. Might as well become a crab-and-a side by side crab crawl!

3.2. As there is a need to service the air con thru the window space at D, it is no longer practical to place a full length wardrope at D. Looks like only a wardrope can be placed at marking E. Even so, it cannot be too long. Else, if the corner is not rounded it becomes a poison arrow aimed towards the master bed.
