THE FACT THAT MOST SINGAPOREANS OWN THEIR OWN HOMES IS OFTEN TRUMPETED AS A PUBLIC HOUSING SUCCESS STORY. CRITICS, HOWEVER, HAVE LIKENED HDB FLATS TO PIGEONHOLES IN THE SKY, AND THAT PUBLIC HOUSING IN SINGAPORE DE-INDIVIDUALISES ITS INHABITANTS. HAVING LIVED HALF HIS LIFE IN A HDB FLAT TO NO VISIBLE DETRIMENT, THE DESIGNER SUGGESTS HOW WE SHOULD NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE INDIVIDUAL’S ABILITY TO CONTINUALLY OVERCOME THE CONSTRAINTS SET BY THE ENVIRONMENT, BE IT A PIGEONHOLE OR OTHERWISE.
