I have, in the past, been awed by the works by the guys at Seksan Design. I stumbled across their website by chance and truly loved the work they had done, particularly this refurbishing project on a rather old property in PJ Sect 16. I loved how the old and modern elements blend together, creating a space that I would truly dream of. Seksan had a feature on the papers yesterday, this time with another refurbishment project on a Sec17 70s home. They are asking for RM4.2 for that prop. A Sec17 property with about 6000sf land is currently going for about RM1.8m. Now if only I could guess the cost of such project but if they do manage to achieve their asking price, they are in for huge profits!

While snooping through their website, I have also just realised that Seksan was responsible for the landscaping of Hijauan Kiara. Much have been said about their amazing landscaping of this project, which has in a way helped generate much interest in the project. Bukit Kiara Properties have also been milking every cent out of the money they spent on the landscaping of the project by promoting how amazing the landscaping is (the first granite pool in Mont’ Kiara, RM200,000 Royal Dutch turf, first to have Spa-island – whatever that means, German-imported Dedon garden furniture, etc) in every way possible. But the question remains, did they miss out in the most important element in any project – the internal finishing of the units? Time will tell, so far the project has been VP-ed and am eagerly awaiting for owners feedback on the finishing.

Write up on the Section 17 refurbishment after the jump.
