The Housing and Development Board (HDB) of Singapore has issued a clarification regarding the layout of four-room flats in the Tengah Garden Waterfront estate. This response follows viral social media commentary from a renovation video that described the kitchen space as excessively small and lacking a service yard. HDB explained that the units feature an open-concept design integrating both wet and dry zones, intended to offer residents greater flexibility in customizing their living areas. The agency emphasized that its primary goal is to provide diverse architectural configurations to accommodate the varying requirements of different homeowners. By highlighting the functional design of these spaces, HDB sought to address public perceptions that the kitchen areas were insufficient, maintaining that the layout is a deliberate choice to support modern lifestyle preferences.
