Description

This title presents a superbly illustrated look at the architecture and interior design that gives Java its own unique style. "Java Style" is a photographic celebration of the architecture, interior design, furniture and lifestyles that make up Java's unique visual culture, and of the creative possibilities afforded by Java's rich stock of antiques and art objects. A five hundred-year-old mosque's pavilions, the linked colonnades of the palaces of Java's sultans, neo-classically styled verandas of a colonial administrator's villa, the cloistered courtyard of an 18th-century Chinese mansion, public buildings that form part of the greatest flowering of art deco outside Europe - these are these are just some of the stunning sights that have given Java such a unique and eclectic style.
