25 Tropical Houses in Indonesia

    Architects working in Indonesia-and elsewhere in Southeast Asia-face the challenge not only of creating spaces to suit the lifestyles of their users but also of addressing the environmental and climatic problems associated with living in the tropics. Featured in this book are twenty-five of the most innovative solutions to these challenges by some of Indonesia’s foremost architects, among them Jeffrey Budiman and Andra Matin. Economic crises and political change within the country have inspired a new spirit of appreciation of modernist architecture and fostered a wave of architectural creativity which is distinctly Indonesian, lively, and refreshing. Drawing on classical Indonesian, aesthetics and conventions and blending these with dynamic, cutting-edge design ideas, modern architecture in Indonesia has become dramatically aligned with international concepts of space, while incorporating stunning local elements and materials. 25 Tropical Houses in Indonesia offers a selection of the best contemporary architecture in the archipelago.
