Peter Rowe and Yun Fu's second volume on the modernization of
architecture in the Far East deals with Southeast Asia and
Austronesia, including the 12 nation states of Vietnam, Cambodia,
Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei,
East Timor, Philippines and Taiwan, as well as the ocean peoples of
Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia. The modern architecture of
these culturally and nationally heterogenous regions echoes local
vernacular traditions and colonial as well as postcolonial
hegemonies from both the East and the West. The book tells the
stories of these separate roots and their culmination into
contemporary architectural production, analyzing the
distinctiveness and quality of approx. 65 building projects that
have emerged in the past half century.
