In an era of climate vulnerability, housing crises, and cultural homogenization, Tropical Vernacular explores how ancestral building traditions can guide more resilient and equitable futures.

Moving across tropical contexts - from the Zenú canals of northern Colombia and Tayrona terracing in the Sierra Nevada to Hawai'i's ahupua'a systems and Eastern Polynesian house-making - this catalog-like book illustrates architectural forms, construction techniques, and cultural logics that have shaped thriving landscapes for centuries. Blending architectural documentation and archaeological research, it highlights enduring bonds between Oceania and equatorial America.
