Examining the folk influences on the decoration of Chinese houses and their traditional methods of construction, this intriguing book also studies such ancient customs of fengshui, the system of divination that relied on the spirits of the landscape to reveal the suitability of a site for building. Illustrated with wood block prints, original line drawings, and the author's own photographs, this first ever book on the cultural aspect of the Chinese house portrays a living folk tradition of amazing resilience.
