Intricate decorative details are some of the salient architectural features that represent the distinguished Thai style, where function is combined with an innate beauty of form. In this revised edition, the author William Warren extends to feature some of the most beautiful hetels in Thailand,
such as the pagoda-like Sukhothai Hotel and the internationally acclaimed Chiva-Som. Other enchanting depictions in full-colour include elements that are found throughout rustic and modern settings, occasionally bringing the reader into the artfully designed interior. From chic Bangkok residences to provincial country dwellings to pictureque seaside resorts and luxurious hotels, the essence of this fascinating and beautiful country is revealed in the stunning photography of award-winning photographer Luca Invernizzi Tettoni.
