The Second Contender

This is the state of the condo unit when I went in over a month ago.  It hasn't seen any renovation work in three decades so the design elements are all from the seventies -- low ceilings and disco wallpaper.  The groovy bachelor pad had a mirrored ceiling in the bedroom that were eventually covered up with plywood after changes in occupants.  The last tenant decided to just use it is as storage space -- a pity since the unit is in a prime location plus there are not too many new structures as generously proportioned.  This 115 sq m apartment has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and right smack at the heart of Makati, a stone's throw away from Makati Med. 

It took one week to remove all the false ceilings and walls and to tear down the closets and cabinets.  It has made such a great difference bringing the light in.
