Overview
Style, that enigmatic ingredient of good taste, has woven an elusive thread through the volatile history of Hong Kong. More than any other, this city has stood at the crossroads of East and West, its identity evolving amid often conflicting currents. Since emerging from colonial rule, Hong Kong has increasingly embraced its Chinese origins, drawing on old and tenacious roots. This copiously illustrated volume delves into the diverse and intangible influences behind Hong Kong's façade, exploring the varied elements that contribute to its particular élan. Hong Kong Style is concerned not with the private domain of exclusive domiciles, but with the wholly accessible style reflecting the personality of Hong Kong as it has evolved over the last 160 years.Book Details
