Through luscious photography and an accessible text, Design City Melbourne is devised not only to illustrate a wide range of fascinating interiors but also to describe the people behind them and how these spaces support the vital culture of this uniquely mixed and cosmopolitan city.
A metropolis that is situated in the same time zone as China, and which is pioneering in its European colonial matrix the admixture of new Asian urban forms.
