Hi everyone, I've read a couple of interesting pieces recently that I wanted to share with you. The first is the New York Times piece, The Architect Who Made Singapore’s Public Housing the Envy of the World. The article discusses the work of Liu Thai Ker, the urban planner responsible for designing one million units of public housing in Singapore. I was struck by the philosophy behind the massive investment. The poor weren't warehoused in segregated enclaves with limited amenities.
