New ideas to rejuvenate HDB estates
The Housing Development Board (HDB) will introduce more and different flat designs in the near future, including the revived ‘granny flats’, the new ‘sky villages’ and more 40-storey HDB blocks.

Soon, extended families can live side by side each other, in separate but specially designed flats. Home owners can decide the specific facade they want for their units.  Construction will begin in three to four years’ time if the ideas are well-accepted by the public.

Dawson Estate has been chosen to pioneer some of the ideas.

New flats there may have balconies, monsoon windows, planter boxes, bay windows in their respective units and 'sky villages' where every 10 floors share common high-rise spaces.       (1 Sept)
