Synopsis
Bali's culture is a blend of ancient traditions and influences from the outside world, with the Balinese sense of art expressed in their art and design, architecture and music. In this book, illustrations present a view of the architecture, interiors and objects that are the essence of Bali's style. From bamboo dwellings to contemporary Bali homes, from panoramic vistas to pictures of the elaborate stonework in Hindu temples - various aspects of this distinctive culture are examined.

Review
"While the tone of the text may be coffee-table, the strength and variety of the well-selected images make it a more authoritative tome." -- The Straits Times. "...Bali Style does provide a good introduction to the islands unique culture. Just looking at the excellent photographs should suffice." -- The New Straits Times.
