This issue discusses the topic of globalisation and locality through four essays and eleven projects. The essays attempt to observe the tension between the different forces of globalisation, which is being widely debated as a distinguishing trend, and also highlight globalisation's impact on local architecture, as well as the various efforts being taken to ensure local identity and distinctive locality in architecture design. The projects, accompanied with full-colour photos and text descriptions, demonstrate the many successful attempts in developing design concepts and methods to cope with the globalisation trend while maintaining locality. These essays and projects are carefully selected to represent diversity in project locations, and includes locations such as Thailand, India, Japan, and China.
