The New Indonesian House
The New Indonesian House features twenty-seven homes in Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta and Bali that illustrate the remarkable advances that have taken place in residential design in Indonesia over the last two decades. From the pre-1990 issue – how to modernize while maintaining a core of cultural identity – Indonesia’s new generation of architects has moved on, demonstrating their sensitivity to the physical environment, the social context and the aspirations of the urban middle classes. The result is a level of refinement, sophistication, individuality and environmental awareness in their house designs that is comparable with the best in the world.
The New Malaysian House
The New Malaysian House is a collection of 25 contemporary houses that demonstrate a remarkable flowering of Malaysian design talent that has been germinating since the mid-1980s. The houses range from luxury detached bungalows set in extensive tropical gardens to weekend retreats in the forest, from the gated communities springing up throughout Malaysia to extended family homes. All are distinguished by a singular quality of innovative design as the architects seek to explore new approaches for designing with the climate and in the cultural context of Malaysia.
