This beautifully presented book integrates the most pleasurable aspects of tropical living with a modern sensibility to establish an entirely new and exciting trend in interior design.

Selecting the best examples from around the globe – from Brazil to Florida, from New Zealand to Singapore – Tropical Minimal reveals how the appreciation of exotic environments can be enhanced through simple spaces and pared-down furnishings.

Superbly photographed especially for this volume, examples are presented of living, eating and dining, bathing, sleeping and outdoor living that cover the spectrum of tropical-minimal design and architecture. A visual-reference section focuses on design details, from exotic materials and terraces to lighting and pools.
