Introduction by Byron Hawes -- Projects -- Architects profiles
"Warm, inviting, embracing the indoor-outdoor lifestyle with a touch of the exotic, tropical modern homes are a dream of paradise realized."--Amazon
"Contemporary tropical residential architecture has risen from a geographically specific homegrown aesthetic to a source of inspiration for the world's great modern architects... This book examines some of the most innovative interpretations of the genre by internationally recognized architects and interior decorators... 'Modern Tropical' explores the exotic material, color, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic choices of some of contemporary architecture's most beautiful residential properties. Each house is introduced with breathtaking interior and exterior photography and orientation plans, and placed into context through the critical eye of respected architecture editor Oscar Riera Ojeda and descriptive texts written by design and lifestyle critic Byron Hawes, to give readers an in-depth glimpse of the rapidly evolving symbiosis between nature and shelter, indoor and outdoor, and rustic and polished, in a definitive examination of tropical modern living."--Back cover
