Beautiful.....but I don't understand why the client will spend all that money (and the contractor delivering) then spoil it with that cheap looking POP light. There are cheap chandeliers, it would have been better if there was nothing there.

@crisycent, You comment is most welcome than every other comment here. Critical comments is what I have always wanted to help me grow.

Now regarding Ceiling fitting. Its difficult to see a ceiling fitting around that Looks expensive. Everyone are always on thesame mold. Though what might look fine on your eyes might not be fine on mine. In agreement with what you said. Chandeliers are the only way to go when it comes to those situations, but Our overall living room height is so short that everyone, Moreover the CLient will basically be using it to do head training. I am sure my hands can touch that fittings as it is there.

We are Building again.

This is a new story for the COnstruction of 4 Bedroom duplex with 4 Units of 2 Bedroom Flats attached. We continue our Ideology of giving our clients to Professionalism at a Good price. Sorry there is no 3D available for this building as the drawing was Originally done by another Architect, for a 4 Bedroom DUplex + 2 Units of 3 Bedroom Flats. But, after consultation with us by the client, We helped change it to 4 bedroom duplex + 4 Units of 2 Bedroom flat, which will rent faster and add more value.

PROJECT: 4 Bedroom Duplex with attached 4 Units of 2 Bedroom Flat.
Size of land: 648m2
LOCATION: Sangoted Ajah.
TYPE OF FOUNDATION: Raft. After doing a thorough Soil ANalysis
CLIENT: By Referral (Non-Nairalander)
SCOPE OF WORK: Foundation to PLastering.

Sorry for the late Pictures as my Workers had already started work while I was away. As usual, will provide as many pictures as I can to ensure process is understood by my Esteemed followers.

Oga, I saw you did the screeding on these walls with regular cement. Is there a reason or reasons why you didn't do the screeding with white cement? Which one is better between white cement and regular cement screeding? We concluded to do screeding for my house with white cement for internal screeding and regular cement for external screeding.

Your input is needed on this.

First let me point out that The best is using the Material Called Survinile to do your screeding for both external and Internal. But budget sometimes will make us use manual mix like regular cement or white cement. now in terms of both. Normal cement is better, since it can manage water better than white cement. The disadvantage it has over white cement is that its Harder to sand paper when ready for painting, so the screeder has to screed well and sandpaper while screeding to ensure that the Job is already done before the painter comes in. As for the advantage it has over white cement, apart from the fact that it manages water better, its stronger in grip, and protects wall from those situations where you have deep cuts on wall faces and angles due to moving of items.

Note regular cement is not a 100% protection from water, but in your case where you are building on a dry land, then you are ok. Not like in most cases in Lagos like the Water logged areas. Hence Survinille is the best.
