by Anna Minguet

Architecture in uneven terrains challenges conventions and invites us to rethink the relationship between the natural environment and human design. In this book, we explore the creations of various architects who have embraced the challenge of building in arid terrains, with steep slopes and among imposing rocks. Through their works, we discover how architecture can harmoniously merge with nature, defying the limitations of the terrain and creating spaces that inspire awe and admiration. Whether in cliffside homes or in deserts, these constructions demonstrate the power of creativity and engineering to transform the inhospitable into the habitable, the rugged into the beautiful.Welcome to a journey through architecture in unique terrains, where imagination and audacity meet the earth and the rock.
