[.en] "We wanted this house to embrace its landscape, we designed a house that would not engage with its landscape and become landscape." - Julien De Smedt in dezeen.com.
"Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you." - Frank Lloyd Wright.
"I do not think that architecture is only about shelter, is only a very simple enclosure. It should be, to you, to make you think." - Zaha Hadid.


This beautifully photographed book of striking buildings in impossibly difficult locations features a carefully curated selection of international projects. In 60 case studies, the authors profile houses built on cliffs, steep mountain slopes, and other treacherous places, like X house in Barcelona, Lookout in Norway, Sunflower House in Girona and many more. Discover over 60 case studies where nature and architecture show their roughest but most beautiful side.

In this mind-blowing selection of the most impossible structures on the most steep cliffs and sharp edges around the globe, we show how architects have used the challenge of slanted construction surfaces to create innovative houses. Discover in over sixty case studies how architecture and nature blend together in even the most difficult conditions.
