Summary:

China Living focuses on the diverse landscape that is China today and in so doing explores a wide range of innovative new build interiors. From modernist villas in the mountains to high rise apartment blocks for the professional classes; from artistic retreats in former industrial zones to cutting-edge courtyard houses, the array of modern living options in China is as diverse as the country itself. From 'Urban Innovation' to 'New Creativity', 'Raw Appeal' to 'City Glamour', the four sections that make up China Living explore every aspect of the vision that has changed Chinese design and reveals the single truth about Chinese design today: expect the unexpected. With freedom from creative rules and restrictions, designers are free to absorb a multitude of influences and chart their own path. The future is being made today.
