When friends tell me they are building a new home with Asian themes, I buy them this book! I receive enthusiastic thank you notes from everyone. Two friends bought copies for their designers and contractors. This should tell you something about this great book!

This book strikes the perfect balance between pictures and descriptions, as well as varying geographical locations. The pictures are sumptuous. There are pictures on nearly every page. I wished I could step into the book and live in the homes pictured.
