In the Asian Style: A Design Sourcebook

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
East meets West is a strong trend in modern-day interiors, as homeowners seek to create relaxed, harmonious retreats for their families. Asia Style takes the best examples of Oriental design from around the world to show how it can be applied and adapted absolutely anywhere. Full-color images by photographer Kim Sayer capture the different facets of this sensual, yet often distinctly minimalist approach to living. An authoritative, readable text looks at the history of Oriental decorative styles and examines the structure and function of particular spaces in the Asian home. Five in-depth chapters focus on such key materials as bamboo, lacquer and basketware. Inspiring and informative, Asia Style is an ideal reference for anyone interested in design and style. Fiona Dunlop is an interior design, food and travel writer of many years' experience. Her work has been featured in international design bibles including Elle Decoration, Vogue Decoration and Architektur & Wohnen, and she is a regular contributer to the New York Times, Sunday Times and Daily Telegraph. Born in Sydney, Fiona now lives in London. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
