Singapore's OK

After just arriving home from my 8 day stay in Singapore, I am starting to reflect on what a wonderful city it was.

Initial reactions were, efficient, organised, clean, polite and progressive. For a small island streaming with millions of people it seems that the Singapore government have managed to get a good balance of economic progress and lifestyle.

A good part of the cities efficiency was design related; excellent and clear signage, relevant communication campaigns, modernist principles and effective use of space.

Singapore is a place where East meets West and various Asian cultures are combined such as Malaysian, Indian and Chinese.

As I continue to digest my experience of Singapore I will try and post other design related themes should they come up.
