Asian livingoften a palette of centuries-old building techniquesis becoming more and more a by-product of dense urbanity, with high-rise apartments and large populations living close together in small spaces and Western-accented fast-paced lifestyles. The apartments presented in this dense and colorfully photographed volume represent current trends in design, which tend to draw inspiration from the past while embracing the future. From vestibules to bedrooms, lighting options to decorative accessories, the book offers visits to rounded living rooms, kitchens that have evolved from places of lonely isolation to communal spaces in the home, bedrooms as sanctuaries with breathtaking views of the city below, and such various "openings" as balconies with natural vistas and window seats overlooking the urban landscape.
