Books in the Spatial Habitus series explore the socio-cultural, historical, and environmental factors that influence the structure and meaning of Asia’s architecture—the buildings, settlements, cities, and landscapes of more than half the world’s population. Drawing on the original research of established as well as younger scholars, the series—richly illustrated with photographs, line drawings, and maps—focuses on the ways in which various factors shape built forms and explores how meanings are transmitted through architecture. As the title Spatial Habitus suggests, the series emphasizes the interactive and meaningful relationship between people and their built world.

Disciplinary connection in aim and border-crossing in extent, Spatial Habitus: Making and Meaning in Asia’s Architecture presents syntheses, introduces new areas for investigation, and offers novel understandings of earlier scholarship. Encompassing research throughout Asia, the series produces work intended to provide lessons and inspiration for academics, architects, planners, and citizens as they construe and construct future built environments.
