The Interlace in Singapore is an apartment complex which resembles a game of Tetris gone wrong. The rectangular blocks in which the residents dwell are stacked in a way that accommodates the most people in the allotted space--20 acres for this Jenga-fied jungle.
The futuristic flats will also house eight courtyards along with the 1,040 units. The name “Interlace†was carefully chosen to emphasize the interconnected theme of the complex. The Interlace also comes equipped with modern efficiencies which will make use of micro-climate, solar and wind resources.Photo Credits: designboom, theinterlacecondo
