A VERY GOOD BOOK : Tropical Architecture: Critical Regionalism in the Age of Globalization (Paperback)
by Alexander Tzonis (Editor), Liane Lefaivre (Editor), Bruno Stagno (Editor)
"Next to the great ideological struggle between modernism and traditionalism, the conflict between regionalism and globalism has shape most social, political, economic and cultural debates..." (more)
Key Phrases: tropical city concept, arquitectura antillana, tropical architecture, Tay Kheng Soon, New York, Canal Zone (more...)
Other books are: Tropical Houses, Bali Houses, Sri Lanka Style, all from Amazon books, the used ones very affordable. |
