Returning Taiping offers readers insight into the architectural and urban heritage of Taiping, Malaysia, inextricably linked to its unique natural and man-made landscapes, as well as the country’s socio-economic history. This book is based on a study of the former tin-mining town in Perak by staff and students from the architecture departments of the University of Malaya (UM) and the National University of Singapore (NUS). This book presents the urban analyses, documentation, measured drawings and architectural models executed during the UM-NUS Joint Studio conducted in May and June 2010
