The architecture of the West is well-known and recognizable across the world. The sustainable architecture of Southeast Asia-inspired by environment and a thriving and distinct culture-is a hidden pearl in the world of architectural design.

Inspired by fresh agendas, such as simplicity and rethinking congregational spaces, the designs in this book dazzle with a bold new perspective. The 400 color photographs in this book will put you in beachfront scenes where the waves crash only inches from your feet; dreaming poolside at glamorous hotels; relaxing in gorgeous luxury homes with flawless Asian decor; and finally, will bring you face to face with the most innovative concepts in all of Asian architecture. |
