Masterpieces: Bungalow Architecture + Design

The bungalow as we know it was created when British colonial administrators adapted a classic style of Indian architecture to build their summer retreats. All the typical rooms of a house were organized on one floor around a central parlour. Bungalows today are single- or one-and-a-half storey buildings combining the ingenious spatial solutions of apartment floor plans with the autonomy of detached single-family houses. The bungalows presented in this volume show the wide variety of options in terms of size, floor plans, and design.
