Living on the Edge

Houses on Cliffs

Agata Toromanoff

Buildings that seemed to defy the laws of gravity

More than 40 case studies on the most ‘unbuildable’ places, with insights from architects

A book that will give you a fear of heights

In Living on the Edge, the author goes in search of the most controversial and seemingly unfeasible projects at deep chasms and steep cliffs.

These houses come from the pen of innovative architects who dare to think out of the box. With the help of innovating techniques, fear of heights-inducing homes are constructed at the most challenging locations all over the world.

Living on the Edge is a book for architecture lovers without fear of heights!
