5.0 out of 5 stars
This book is immensely informative and well prepared.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Indonesia Accents: Architecture, Interior Design, Art (Hardcover)
For anyone who is intrigued with the marriage of art and architecture in the design of living spaces, you should surely enjoy the works of this Indonesian design firm. They have impressed me with a creative sensitivity that is not normally considered nor enacted in the business of design and beyond all they show a very real design trademark that can be seen in all of their works. The book is very well written, giving the reader a educational tour supplemented with a good variety of well composed and detailed photographs. I really like the fact that the photographs are not the oft-expected tourist-like shots or the professional studio-like shots so prevalent in books of art and architecture. It appears to me that a lot of time and effort was put into this book. I am aware of the fact that the author is in fact an architect and for that reason he has a specific photographic sensitivity that makes his book even more interesting. I have learned more about Indonesian art and architecture, including a very informative section on building materials than I would have ever expected. This book is by far one of the best productions about the works of a design firm, anywhere on this planet.
