Art Deco buildings in Malaysia typically have flat or low-pitched roofs without overhangs, suited to the hot climate. They often have tall, narrow windows and decorative features emphasizing repetition, such as chevrons, zigzags, or horizontal/vertical bands. Walkways called "five-foot ways" provided cover for pedestrians. Decorations focus on bas-relief designs and contrasting materials to highlight textures.
