60 projets sensationnels d'architecture contemporaine offrant des relations particulières avec le paysage naturel
60 stunning works of contemporary architecture, all of which have a special relationship with the natural landscape
Elemental Living presents 60 works of architecture from
across the 20th and 21st centuries that have a special relationship with
the natural world. The book includes a visually breathtaking selection
of architect-created houses that have been designed to create
unparalleled views of a wide variety of natural landscapes; designed to
be almost indistinguishable from the natural landscape; or designed
using materials and forms found in the natural landscape. Each house
demonstrates a deep concern with the creation of unique living spaces
that connect their inhabitants with the forests, mountains, lakes,
deserts, and oceans that have attracted humanity for millennia.
