A stunning showcase of the unique lifestyle opportunities afforded by contemporary courtyard design in the Asia-Pacific region.

Courtyards have long played an important function in residential design, regulating light, shade, and the use of space. With thousands of years of tradition as inspiration, contemporary architects are realising courtyard living afresh.

This lavish survey of 25 residences across the Asia-Pacific region features homes from Australia, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Singapore, India, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka.

Structured by courtyard function, Courtyard Living consists of five chapters focusing on privacy, multigenerational living, sightlines, light and ventilation, and living with nature. These chapters are richly illustrated with photography as well as architectural illustrations showing courtyard positions within floor plans.

Showcasing the unique lifestyle opportunities afforded by contemporary courtyard design, this book is an inspirational resource for anyone interested in indoor-outdoor living.
