Your brief for this combination
Use this plan when discussing living-room layout in a 3-room resale flat, with phased work as the priority. The current decision point is design review. Confirm that these assumptions match your actual home before using the checklist.
A 3-room resale scope should distinguish cosmetic changes from work needed because of existing condition. Demolition can expose issues that photographs and old drawings do not show.
Work to define: Living-room layout
Place the actual seating and activities before specifying fixed features. Test movement between doors, windows and adjoining rooms with the everyday furniture arrangement, not an empty presentation plan.
The working deliverable is living-room furniture and movement plan. For this property, start by resolving the following constraint: Separate inspected retained items from items whose condition is still unknown.
Design for phased work
A phased plan needs workable access, protection and temporary household arrangements between packages. Confirm dependencies before assuming that trades can return independently.
Apply that priority to the living-room furniture and movement plan: List the minimum usable facilities and access needed between phases. Discuss the result against the actual 3-room resale flat 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 phased work question within this record, so the priority is carried through the living-room layout work rather than lost between drawings, quotations and site instructions.
Four questions to resolve together
- For living-room layout: Which route crosses the main seating or activity area?
- For phased work: Which later package depends on an earlier concealed or connection detail?
- For this 3-room resale flat: Separate inspected retained items from items whose condition is still unknown.
- 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.
