Your brief for this combination
Use this plan when discussing lighting coordination in a executive apartment, with retain existing items as the priority. The current decision point is design review. Confirm that these assumptions match your actual home before using the checklist.
An executive apartment may offer generous shared areas, but services and circulation still need a coordinated plan. Treat long routes and furniture groups as active design constraints.
Work to define: Lighting coordination
Coordinate lighting intent with furniture, ceiling conditions, switching and maintenance. Mood images do not establish fitting positions, glare control or how the household will operate the lights.
The working deliverable is lighting intent, location and switching schedule. For this property, start by resolving the following constraint: Measure the main circulation route with the proposed furniture in place.
Design for retain existing items
Record the condition and dimensions of retained pieces. The design must resolve protection, installation access and finish junctions around them, rather than treating them as unchanging background.
Apply that priority to the lighting intent, location and switching schedule: Photograph the condition and define protection and making-good boundaries. Discuss the result against the actual executive apartment layout rather than treating a similar photograph as evidence that the detail will fit.
At the design review stage
Resolve the details that affect fabrication, services and finish interfaces. Compare the drawings with actual selected items and retain a clear record of approved revisions.
The expected stage output is: Coordinated drawings and a dated decision record for fabrication and installation. Resolve the retain existing items question within this record, so the priority is carried through the lighting coordination work rather than lost between drawings, quotations and site instructions.
Four questions to resolve together
- For lighting coordination: Which task needs a different light setting or glare treatment?
- For retain existing items: Which retained item changes the installation or connection sequence?
- For this executive apartment: Measure the main circulation route with the proposed furniture in place.
- Before completing the design review: Check that each selected item and retained interface appears on the current drawings.

Property requirements and scope boundaries
Check current HDB requirements for the actual scope and verify the appointed contractor where required. This page does not establish permit eligibility.
Record existing condition, retained items, quantities, named products or specifications, exclusions and responsibility owners. Pricing and feasibility require the actual scope and site information. This scenario does not establish a market price or confirm that any work has been approved.
