Description:

This is at once a compendium for designers and an essay on the architecture of Asia's most glamorous tropical island. Landscape and architectural designer Made Wijaya has drawn on his photographic archives, compiled over 30 years, to present this visual study of Balinese architecture, its origins, elements, variations and vagaries. Wijaya opens with an overview of Balinese architecture in its human context - the village, composed of domestic house compounds, temples, public buildings and often palaces. He then looks at the basic elements of Balinese architecture - the walled courtyard and the pavilion - in both their variety and their structural details. He enhances his survey of traditional Balinese architecture with examples of its adaptation in modern private houses and boutique hotel architecture, including the celebrated Amandari, Four Seasons Bali at Jimbaran, and Wijaya's studio-compound Villa Bebek.
