This publication is a celebration of Chiang Mai Style with stunning photographs that capture the essence of Chiang Mai’s architecture and interiors, as well as its arts and crafts. Chiang Mai Style takes the reader on a journey through the tribal tradition of the houses of northern Thailand and gives a sweeping view of the city’s most contemporary homes, luxurious resorts and spas, with modern interiors yet retaining the essence of Chiang Mai’s rich architectural heritage.

During the 80s, his long association with Thailand resulted in the publication of a number of ground-breaking books including The Arts of Thailand, and the best selling Thai Style. His ability to discover and record ancient traditions and immutable aspects of Asia has been instrumental in creating awareness of traditional styles and values of these fast-changing societies. His work has been featured in many coffee-table books on spas, resorts and contemporary architecture
