Restoring & Reconstructing The Malay Timber House
---
Wulf Killmann & Others
The traditional Malay timber house is fast disappearing as a wave of brick and concrete replacements usurp their central place in villages through out the country. This book describes how three wood technologists 'rescued' several of such houses to move them to the Malay Kampong House Museum at the Forest Research Institute Malaysia. By documenting the process the authors hoped to provide a manual for both the conservation of such houses in situ and for those who want to undertake the task of moving such houses elsewhere. Very Good Paperback. First Edition. 103 pages with numerous colour illustrations and line drawings.
