Architecture in the most impossible places. EDGY ARCHITECTURE is about challenging building sites without limitations. Flirting with nature in an expressive yet subtle way. A carefully curated photography selection of international projects, creating a signature high-perfomance space frame for every architect or designer.
In more than 50 case studies, author Agata Toromanoff profiles edgy houses built on cliffs, steep mountain slopes, and other treacherous places.
