<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>This comprehensive interior design book showcases the best in Balinese architecture with over 280 photographs and insightful commentary.</b> <p/><i>Bali Living</i> showcases 21 cutting-edge tropical designs from a creative new generation of architects and interior designers working in Bali. Their work is changing the face of contemporary design worldwide--part of Bali's new wave tropical architecture which has spread across Asia and further afield to Japan, Europe, and the Americas. <p/>Most of these projects are exclusive private residences, but a few are public spaces including a spectacular cliff-side wedding chapel, a stunning beach club, and a poolside restaurant. Each property has been included because of its creativity and contribution to the ongoing international conversation on tropical design. All of these homes are innovative examples of what may be called the creative essence of Balinese living.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>...Francione and Inglis have provided residential designers and architects a valuable sourcebook of sumptuous design concepts that may be adapted and interpreted for many, no matter whether they reside in Bali or elsewhere. --<b><i>Examiner.com</i></b><br><br>Francione continues his examination of contemporary Balinese architecture, visiting 21 residential dwellings selected because of their architectural creativity and their un-hackneyed interior design schemes. --<b><i>Library Journal</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Gianni Francione</b> is an Italian architect who has lived in Asia for over 30 years.
