Path of Discovery: Architecture in the Tropics

9/19/2014

NULL

Thomas Elliott finally launched his design book in July 2014. Titled the ‘Path of Discovery’, he shares his experiences and what he has discovered through his career as designer from his early life up until now. Growing up as a son of a US Naval Officer meant that Elliott moved from one home to another as the family got transferred. Living in these myriad of houses evoked his senses, comparing one house to all the another houses he came to know. This memory turned into the force that powered his passion for interior design - while at the same time realizing his talent in making drawings and sketches.

With ‘Architecture in the Tropics’ as the subtitle, he reviews the works he has made around the equator after living and working in Indonesia for the last twenty years. Within the 174 pages, he highlights his selected and future projects – with clear statements of the concepts and rich photographs that were mostly taken by Elliott himself.
