The second monograph on the work of interior designer, architect and landscape designer Bill Bensley.

Bill Bensley's exuberant aesthetic is renowned around the world. Vanity Fair has described him as 'the craziest sane designer in the world', while Conde Nast Traveller hails him as a 'master of fabulation'. Bensley's eponymous design studio, based in Bangkok and Bali, is most famous for its work on luxury hotels throughout Southeast Asia. Featuring detailed presentations of 12 of his most exciting, extravagant, outlandish and award-winning projects, this bold, large-format design monograph reflects Bensley's theatrical style. In his own words, 'If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing.'
