New Directions in Tropical Asian Architecture presents the dynamic new architecture of the emerging countries of this region—where a sophisticated and globally aware generation of architects is now defining a new design language for private houses, public housing, public buildings and resort hotels.
This book features extended profiles of the region’s most influential architects. Their projects are fully documented with plans, drawings, colour photographs and extensive text. Introductory essays by Philip Goad and Anoma Pieris provide an analytical framework within which to view the wide range of practices and projects found throughout Tropical Asia today.
