Photos of a block of Build-To-Order (BTO) flats in Tampines have been circulating on social media, with many netizens being creeped out by the fully-red paint job.
The walls, ceiling, floors and even the letterboxes of the estate were painted blood red, accompanied by dim lighting all around.
The development of the BTO flats, Tampines GreenVines, is a block newly built in Tampines North, with its TOP (temporary operation permit) being issued back in 1 June 2022.
The eerie-looking Block 640B which was painted red, stands out from the other block lobbies that were painted yellow and blue, and looks like it’s dripping with blood when viewed from afar.
The block looks warm and vibrant enough in the day, but come nightfall, the eeriness of the red walls and ceiling come to life, looking like a scene from a horror film.
The letterbox area was also seen to be painted in a similar red theme, although the incomplete paintwork on the floors made it look like a bloodstained murder crime scene.
Netizens’ comments
- New red light district 😂
- My block is the one in yellow. When i saw the red one, i was like “you’ve got to be kidding me”
- @Desmond_Lee_SG @Baeyyamkeng Hello sirs, hope you’ll have a look and have HDB review this. It’s really scary, how will residents go home every night..
- Going home late at night is so damn spooky
- If you look at basic colour theory, red has more positive connotations than negative ones
- Colour theory your grandfather head ah
