Resumen:
Houses on the Edge. To build a house - a livable, workable, practical house - in an inhospitable environment is among the most ambitious projects an architect can undertake. Through striking photography, this volume brings us 28 homes from around the world built on mountainsides, cliff faces, and other such precarious locations. These projects combine remarkable site control with cutting-edge architecture, truly spectacular residences with exquisite views, exceptional privacy and incredible technical and artistic attributes. Truly these are among the world's most inspiring houses. |
