HDB Homes of Singapore Exhibition

At National Design Centre, I came across this exhibition on Singapore HDB homes. Basically it feature homes in public housing HDB(Housing Development Board) where more than 80% Singaporeans reside. 

New public housing is much smaller compared to the past. The current 5-room HDB flat that  I've been staying for the past 30 years is much bigger. Be it public housing or private housing like condominiums, sizes of the room are getting smaller. For example my bedroom size is twice or even thrice the size of current new flats and condominiums due to limited land area in Singapore. When I told some acquaintances, they are very surprised that Singapore is only 700 km square after some land reclamation.
