Tropical Style: Contemporary Dream Houses in Malaysia
Product Description Tropical Style showcases 35 contemporary Malaysian homes and resorts that feature the use of vernacular cultural forms and cross-cultural influences in new and exciting ways. From modern minimalist homes in Kuala Lumpur to wooden houses set in lush garden settings and secluded coastal and island beach retreats, most of these homes and resorts have never before been photographed. All have been selected for their stunning design, originality of concept and innovative fusion of age-old architectural patterns with a modern aesthetic sense. About The Author Gillian Beal moved to Bali in 1991. She is the author of Island Style: Tropical Dream Houses in Indonesia. Reader Reviews This review is from: Tropical Style: Contemporary Dream Houses in Malaysia (Hardcover) Tropical Style is a beautiful book that is a pleasure to read and to have close to hand on a living room table. With plenty of pictures -some on exquisite details- the glossy pages invite the reader into Malaysia architecture and decoration. The vibrant use of colors and lights, and the warmth of the exotic wood play with the modern inspiration and the garden luxuriance. The purity of the lines as well as the mix of West/East inspiration brings an original elegance to the Malaysian houses. Simple and delicate at the same time, the Malaysian style is worth the attention it gets on this book. To buy for yourself or to offer. Comment | | (Report this)
