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.
