And more than ever, Westerners are eager to try out elements of Asian design. This book is the ultimate resource for professional and amateur designers seeking to recreate the mysterious elegance, balance, and beauty of Asian design. Through the magic of Masano Kawana's beautiful full-color photography, New Asian Style explores more than 30 stunning contemporary houses and homes from Singapore, all of which stand as examples of decorating and style that transcend their Eastern origins. In an effort to help designers pick up Asian ideas for their own settings, Jane Marsden's essays examine what elements make Asian style and how they might be captured in new settings anywhere in the world. | | | Product Details: | | | Author:

 New Asian StyleJan 15, 2007
By J. Beman
I found this book disappointing, but then again, I was looking for Asian design ideas for my home. This book focuses on more on tropical outdoor living, and if I wanted ideas for patios, spa areas or pools, I think there are much better books to be found.
 The book has very nice photos...Sep 03, 2011
By Alexander Monfort
Very nice photos. The reviewer above mistakenly reviewed the book negatively. The book is not meant to help you decorate your home. Although you can seek inspiration, he/she states the book was nothing but tropical decor...the book states that on its cover! He/she should have researched more and instead of incorrectly buying this book and giving it a negative rating which should not be taken as an accurate rating to help others on purchase this book, he/she should have been searching for feng shui or oriental/asian decor books.
