Description

Geoffrey Bawa (1919-2003) was among the most influential architects in southeast Asia in the last decades of the 20th century, and the principal force behind what is today known globally as 'tropical modernism'. This brilliantly illustrated volume looks back at his life and career and at the continuing legacy of Bawa's influence through the work of contemporary architects working across southeast Asia.
