The Dutch photographer Marc Gerritsen lived and worked in seven countries over the last decade, spread across four continents. In recent years he resided in Asia, where he made a series of fascinating reports on what he terms the urban jungle : a patchwork collection of rich ideas and endless possibilities as regards architecture and design, illustrated with dozens of exceptional homes and apartments. This book shows a selection of his most recent work in Asia: a constant search for perfect design, balanced proportions and excelling in restraint and discrete, refined beauty. All thirteen projects in CONTEMPORARY LIVING IN ASIA have a strongly cosmopolitan character and consequently also have a universal appeal: every apartment, every home in this book offers exceptionally inspiring examples for anyone who wants to transform a living environment in a large city into a pearl of contemporary home comfort in a pure, minimalist style.
