Doors and windows are generic portals to the living space. They protect and frame the spaces, diving interior from exterior. On the facade they give structure and rhythm, offering a glimpse to the sizes of living spaces within. Close-up, they tantalise with the possibility of a space beyond the wall. Although merely a generic living space within a block of flats, numbers and objects surrounding the door and window marks that particular living space as unique. On the inside, doors and portals mark the entry point to a living space beyond. The apartment block in London and Singapore, the symbol of modern, concentrated city living, becomes the object of study in this comparative investigation.
