and just like that, this is how our social page name rumah / katsuobushi /came about.
bonito flakes was the paint code suggested by our id.
tailored to suit our house’s daylight, lights and lamps.

realistically speaking, we went down for korean blinds because of easy maintenance.
two months in, we realised that it gave the house a balance in light control and privacy we needed.
amazing!
the colour code chosen was a match to our house paint code.
these laminates were basic, and it was all we needed. as a minimalist couple, we cannot say no. haha!
it blends well with the led lights and glass backsplash.
we knew we had to get calacata as our kitchen island’s sintered stone. simple yet it has this luxurious-hotel-villa feel.
same as our kitchen space. the lightings blended well here too.
masterbedroom, room 2 & 3 were all vandalised by bonito flakes. we just couldn’t picture any other colours as again, it was match to suit our house’s day light.
the sunlight played a huge role in making the paint code decisions.
we didn’t opt for hdb’s doors (which came with sanitary fittings which we didn’t want) so we had to source for doors. with the help of our id, this colour matches our skirtings.
oh! fun fact, the door measurements at our bto project was slightly bigger than standard size. around a few cm only. which is kinda funny.
slide & swing system for our toilet doors and the door colour code suits our skirtings & wall paint.
what’s your favourite paint code?
