Author: Robert Powell

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 224


A significant number of sophisticated and sensitively designed dwellings have been produced in Thailand in the first decade of the 21st century. The twenty-five houses featured in this book illustrate that radical new ideas are coming from a dynamic younger generation of architects who are producing work comparable with and sometimes even surpassing the very best architecture in the world. Most of these architects were trained in the US or UK and reflect not only American and European sensibilities but also affinities with their contemporaries in Asia, including Japan, China, Singapore and Bali-hotbeds of innovation in modern design.
