Rather than a conventional survey, it assembles interviews, press clippings and images—some documentary, some imagined—into a layered record of a place in transition. Threading personal stories through the architecture, it asks readers to rethink familiar ideas of growth and progress and to pay closer attention to the histories, realities and possibilities of life outside the big metropolitan centres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchitectural research centred on a regional Malaysian town rather than a capital city\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterviews, clippings and real and imagined imagery woven together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHuman narratives set alongside the buildings themselves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA large-format layout that gives space to its visual material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Discover\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe modernist architecture of Kluang and the town's urban fabric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat redevelopment means for an ageing regional town\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow oral history and archival material can inform architectural research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternative ways of thinking about progress beyond the metropolis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Editor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWong Jian Lin is a Malaysian architect and researcher.
