Book Description
More than just a home, the Penang house was a statement of wealth, influence and cultural affiliations. Western technology combined with Eastern tastes, craftsmanship and local ways of building to create distinctive habitats appropriate to the tropical climate. A number of European professionals pioneered the practice of architecture in early twentieth-century Penang, laying the foundations for future generations of local architects. This lavishly illustrated book is an important landmark study of a glorious chapter in Malaysia's architectural history. -- publisher description.
