Fascination Mountain Living

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

An inspiring overview of contemporary homes set against the backdrop of high mountains, steep hillsides, and picturesque valleys with a focus on architecture and interior design.

From the majestic peaks of the Alps to the green slopes of Japan's Shikoku Range and the rugged heights of the Rocky Mountains: the selected residential buildings at such dizzying heights are a reminder that architecture not only creates spaces but also shapes the relationship between human beings and their environment. They are creative showpieces that blend harmoniously and respectfully into the breathtaking nature of the mountain landscapes.

Hillside locations present very special challenges and at the same time offer endless design possibilities. On the one hand, they open up spectacular views, while on the other, they make innovative solutions for the room program possible. All the oases of modern living featured in Fascination Mountain Living demonstrate unique ways of how aesthetics, functionality, sustainability, and adaptation to the topography can be felicitously combined.
