BRAC UNIVERSITY CAMPUS, DHAKA
– THE LIVING BREATHING BUILDING
128 pages. Softcover. 340 x 255mm.
In production.
The massive vertical campus built for BRAC University can be viewed as a successor to the monuments of modernism that have so defined South Asian architecture, yet it is also a comprehensive exposition of the cutting-edge green design strategies and structural forms that have underpinned all the works of WOHA Architects.
Text by Prof Zainab Ali and Patrick Bingham-Hall. Photography by Prantography and Patrick Bingham-Hall.
THE ARCHITECTURE OF JIMMY LIM
228 pages. Softcover. 280 x 220mm.
In production.
'Jimmy Lim's ‘can-do’ attitude is firmly linked to a focus on the delights of tropicality, a reinstatement of the fundamental principles of vernacular architecture, and to an unconstrained freedom of expression – one which had been motivated by the joy of simply living life to the full.We may never see the likes of such architecture again'.

THE ARCHITECTURE OF CHARLES WRIGHT
160 pages. Softcover. 280 x 220mm.
In production.
'The startling formal flamboyance of Charles Wright’s work is as much a response to the environment and the climate as it is to his aesthetic inclinations. His architecture delights in the elaborations of structural necessity and revels in the luxuriance of the landscape, yet the designs were researched and conceived as prototypes for tropical living, , wherein the voids of the section and the incisions of the plan are calibrated for comprehensive natural ventilation and protection from the elements'.

THE ICONIC TROPICAL HOUSE
304 pages. Hardcover. 288mm x 288mm.
First published – 2025
The forty-five houses featured in this book are located in India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, and (tropical) Australia. There has long been a connectivity between the architectural histories of those nations, and despite the myriad inequities and disparities, a geographically/climatically discrete process of cross-fertilisation is ongoing – theoretical, practical, and occasionally experimental.

WOHA – NEW FORMS OF SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE
320 pages. Hardcover. 287 x 218mm.
First published – 2022
'WOHA's buildings have been designed as prototypes for societal remediation and advancement. WOHA have been able to demonstrate what a building can do, rather than what it might do, and they are intent upon extending their vision to the macro scale of Asia's urban conglomerations. Humanist ideals have been underpinned by structural pragmatism'.
Text and photography by Patrick Bingham-Hall.
EVOKING CALM – THE ARTWORKS OF COLIN OKASHIMO
288 pages. Hardcover. 300 x 250mm.
First published – 2024
Regarded as one of Southeast Asia's most influential and innovative public artists, Colin Okashimo is both a sculptor and a landscape architect. For over twenty-five years and all across the region, he has been pursuing his concept of a seamless integration between art and landscape. By virtue of carefully considered curation, he has created environments that have become artworks in themselves, serving as a form of mediation between nature and humanity.

GARDEN CITY MEGA CITY – RETHINKING CITIES FOR THE AGE OF GLOBAL WARMING
384 pages. Softcover. 250 x 200mm.
First published – 2016
"A book that is as much manifesto as it is monograph. While certainly focused on WOHA's research, speculative proposals, and real-world commissions, their output is presented thematically, polemically, and piecemeal, rather than one project after another. Garden City Mega City must be used as a critical reference for sustainable urban planning and showcases prototypes designed to revolutionise city life in Asia and beyond."
Written and produced in collaboration by WOHA Architects and Patrick Bingham-Hall
