Since early this century, Bali's paradisiacal beauty and the remarkable spirit of its people have attracted a steady stream of artists, architects, anthropologists, mystics, and celebrities from all over the world, and the new residents have interpreted traditional Balinese style with elegant, chic, eccentric, and unusual results.

Featured in this exquisitely illustrated volume are some twenty of the most exceptional homes on the island, all shown in their lush tropical surroundings. They include homes in the traditional village style; pondoks, or the single-pavilion dwellings of the rice fields; royal palaces, such as Woolite heiress Carole Muller's luxury cottage on the upper terrace of the summer palace of East Bali's last king; beach houses; temples; spectacular mountain residences; and homes with magnificently designed gardens.

A visitor's guide and an international source list of Balinese wares completes this insider's tour of the island. Photographed by Isabella Ginanneschi, who lives half the year in Bali, and written by architect and garden designer Made Wijaya, At Home in Bali is the next best thing to being there.

From bamboo dwellings to contemporary Bali homes, from panoramic vistas to pictures of the elaborate stonework in Hindu temples - various aspects of this distinctive culture are examined.

Tropical Houses

Tropical Houses: Living in Nature in Jamaica, Sri Lanka, Java, Bali, and the Coasts of Mexico and Belize
Our Price: $134.99 $73.37 (Free delivery Australia wide)
Format: Hardcover, 252 pages
Condition: New
Author: Tim Street-Porter
Publisher: Clarkson N Potter Publishers, November 2000
ISBN: 0517704625 EAN: 9780517704622
Dimensions: 28.70 x 26.06 x 2.64 centimetres (1.75 kg)

The ambient warmth of the tropics causes architectural distinctions between indoors and out to evaporate, along with the walls that divide them. Houses expand into the landscape, while the sights, sounds, and scents of nature waft through living spaces. Indeed, one of the pleasures of living in the tropics is an awakening of the senses that brings us closer to nature.

Internationally renowned photographer and writer Tim Street-Porter has spent more than ten years traveling through Bali, Java, Sri Lanka, Mexico, Belize, and Jamaica. This book's 272 stunning photographs, supported by Street-Porter's fascinating and informed commentary, capture the appeal and the meaning of the enviable dwellings he found in his journeys.

It may be the outdoor bath, a sybarite's delight, with sun filtering through a frangipani tree . . . the deep-eaved verandah, where one sips coffee while contemplating the neighboring valley shrouded in early morning mist . . . or the thatch-roofed palapa, its main supports local tree trunks wrapped in strangler vine.

These wonderful expressions of vernacular architecture -- many the products of the world's finest architects and designers--nest in jungles, perch over volcanic cliffs, stand placidly beside lagoons, and exist always in harmony with the nature that envelops them. These are real places where people really live, but each seems suspended in a setting that is at once dreamlike and elemental.

This is at once a compendium for designers and an entertaining essay on the architecture of Asia's most glamorous tropical island by one of its foremost admirers.

The book opens with an overview of Balinese architecture and then looks at its basic elements--the walled courtyard and the pavilion. Further chapters examine building materials, ornamentation, and architectural hybrids resulting from other ethnic influences. Richly illustrated with hundreds of contemporary and archival photographs, this unusual book is for anyone interested in ethnic architecture and design.
