| Summary |
This book is the culmination of a collaborative effort between Portuguese architect Fernando Jorge and Malaysian architect Lim Huck Chin. Between 1999 and 2005, the authors documented Malacca's heritage architecture and communities through photographs and over 150 interviews. Research was also carried out in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, The Hague, London and Lisbon. At the core of the project, however, was an interest in Malacca's stories from the "man-in-the-street", from marginalized historical communities and from the city's sometimes unrecognized but precious built fabric. Within the pages of this book are these stories, complemented by 200 colour photographs |
