"The rationale for an examination of new directions in tropical Asian architecture is not hard to find. First and foremost, it is simply overdue. Secondly, this book represents one step in opening up the region to greater scrutiny, to a greater embrace of its complexity. It provides documentation that will stimulate self-reflexive analysis, rather than analysis that is reliant on Western benchmarks of what is deemed to be good. And thirdly, the discourse which has recently arisen from this region has been mired in stereotype, and criticism has foundered on a singular focus on the 'tropical house' or 'tropical resort'." —Philip Goad, Professor of Architecture and Deputy Dean in the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning at the University of Melbourne
