009_public housing


since the land is super limited, about 84% of singaporeans live in HDB flats. (HDB = housing & development board, http://www.hdb.gov.sg) HDB is perhaps able to be called the architect of the country because tons of buildings are built by them. the designs of the flats differ by their generations so it's not difficult to estimate the age of a neighbourhood by looking at architectural style of its HDB blocks.
