Cool creative spatial visualisation work by Charles Platt on personal space around the world; figures gotten from the CIA Factbook then dividing each country's land area by its population. Monaco, who apparently has the world's densest population with only 639 square feet per inhabitant, is just a tiny dot. Surprisingly it is Australia with the sparsest population density and not China nor Russia, both whom I previously thought would have gotten the dubious honour. But then again most of Australia is inhabitable desert anyway.Well if the entire world were to fit in a HDB block, Singapore would probably just get the spare utility/bomb shelter room.

very nice.
also surprised at australia. well yeah they've got a huge swathe of desert. but i guess it really shows how few ppl they have, and how unproductive they are. despite all their immigration too!
i had thought russia would win. antartica no? haha.
i think singapore might get the switchbox in a hdb block. we are reallly small.
