For nearly a kilometer, the landscape vanishes. Then, suddenly, it reappears. In Japan’s Kiyotsu Gorge, MAD Architects transforms a 750-meter tunnel carved into the mountain into a journey through art, light, and nature. Created in 2018 for the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale and now a permanent installation, Tunnel of Light reimagines existing infrastructure through five installations inspired by natural elements. Color, water, and reflective surfaces guide the visitor to the Light Cave, where the gorge’s landscape is mirrored in the water and the boundary between architecture and nature seems to dissolve. Still open to visitors today, the project demonstrates how adaptive reuse can go beyond mere redevelopment, transforming an existing site into a new experience of the landscape.

At an altitude of 753 meters, on Shenzhen’s third-highest peak, the architectural approach was to build as little as possible. The Meishajian Viewing Platform, designed by line+ studio, is rooted in a precise principle: “repair rather than build.” An existing hollow, roughly three meters deep, was repurposed to house service facilities, thereby avoiding further excavation of the mountain’s fragile terrain. Rising above it is a single volume, conceived as an “artificial stone” that appears to belong to the natural rock formations. Its roof serves as an open viewing platform, while existing trails continue to traverse the ridge. Yet, this seemingly simple structure was the result of an extraordinarily challenging construction process. With no vehicular access, materials had to be transported to the summit using mules, drones, cableways, and manual labor. The project demonstrates that building in a fragile landscape can mean, above all, knowing when to intervene minimally. After all, the most radical architecture is sometimes that which chooses to let the landscape play the leading role.

A circle traced into the landscape, where the boundary between architecture and nature can dissolve. Solo OFFICE is part of Solo Houses, a project founded in 2010 by gallerists Eva Albarrán and Christian Bourdais in the Matarraña region of Spain, a collection of contemporary architectural works set within 200 hectares of natural landscape, created with the design freedom granted to some of the international scene’s most compelling architects. Designed by the Belgian firm OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen, Solo OFFICE is rooted in a radical, elemental geometry: a large circular concrete roof organized around a central patio featuring a swimming pool and a wild garden. The facades can be opened completely, transforming the house into a permeable space traversed by air, light, and the surrounding landscape. The circle defines a boundary, yet simultaneously appears built to erase it. It is a work of architecture suspended between shelter and openness, geometric rigor and untamed nature, a place where dwelling means engaging in a continuous relationship with one’s surroundings.

A collection of contemporary homes set within 200 hectares of nature in Spain’s Matarraña region. Solo Houses was launched in 2010 by gallerists Eva Albarrán and Christian Bourdais with a vision: to invite some of the international scene’s most compelling architects to design new forms of living with complete creative freedom. Inspired by the legacy of the Case Study Houses, the project transforms the landscape into an open-air architectural laboratory, where each building independently explores the relationship between space, nature, and daily life.
Among the completed structures, Solo Pezo, designed by the Chilean firm Pezo von Ellrichshausen, appears as a concrete line suspended above the landscape. It features a rigorous, perfectly symmetrical geometry built around a central water-filled courtyard. Living spaces unfold along a continuous veranda, while expansive windows dissolve the boundary between indoors and outdoors.
On one hand, the monolithic strength of concrete; on the other, the lightness of a platform that seems to float above the vegetation. This is architecture that does not seek to blend into nature, but rather establishes a sharp, silent contrast with it.
A different way of inhabiting the horizon.

26/08/2026

Celia is far more than just a new British Pullman carriage: it is a moving film set. Created from an authentic 1932 Pullman carriage and designed to accommodate up to twelve guests, it has been reimagined by Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin as a world suspended between 1930s London theatre, cinema, and the dreamlike imagery of *A Midsummer Night’s Dream*.
On board, a private cocktail bar, a lounge, and a dining area, capable of transforming into a dance floor or a stage, coexist with velvet furnishings, inlaid oak panelling, bespoke parquet flooring, mosaics, and hand-painted walls. The project showcases the very best of British craftsmanship, featuring work by Bill Cleyndert and Hand & Lock, as well as Duchess China porcelain, David Mellor cutlery, and Tom Dixon glassware.
Departing from Victoria Station, Celia transforms the journey through the English countryside into a private, immersive experience where interior design, fine dining, and entertainment merge into a single narrative.

24/08/2026

Where the desert meets the Atlantic, the architecture takes on the appearance of a shipwreck. On the Skeleton Coast, one of Namibia’s most remote regions, Nina Maritz Architects designed Shipwreck Lodge as a series of wreckage fragments scattered along the edge of the dunes.
The cabins appear built to withstand an extreme landscape dominated by wind, sand, and ocean. Inside, large windows frame the horizon, while built-in furnishings and intimate spaces evoke the interiors of old vessels. Prefabricated off-site and assembled on the coast to minimize environmental impact, the structures transform the very concept of a shipwreck into a sanctuary.
It is an architecture suspended between exposure and protection, capable of inhabiting one of the world’s most extreme fringes without attempting to dominate it.

Sleeping suspended 270 meters above the ground, with Mount Fitz Roy right before your eyes and the Andes on the horizon. In Argentine Patagonia, Ovo Patagonia takes hospitality to the extreme: four transparent capsules anchored to a rock face, designed for two people and built to withstand the winds and weather conditions of one of South America’s most spectacular landscapes. To reach them, you start at Estancia Bonanza, hike for about an hour, and tackle the final stretch along a *via ferrata*.
Inside, each capsule is arranged over three levels, featuring a sleeping area, bathroom, living space, and a panoramic area overlooking the open void.
It is minimalist architecture where true luxury lies in the distance from the outside world: the silence, the mountains, the starry sky, and a privileged view of the Patagonian landscape.

In the heart of the Hardangerfjord, amidst mountains, glaciers, and deep waters, a large, ellipsoidal form emerges from the water. This is Salmon Eye, a floating architectural structure designed by Kvorning Design and home to Restaurant Iris, a Michelin-starred establishment led by Danish chef Anika Madsen. The interiors, created by Norm Architects, engage in a dialogue of contrasts with the steel structure: walnut wood, textiles, rugs, and bespoke furnishings combine to create an intimate, enveloping atmosphere.
The forms mirror the building’s curves, while the layout guides guests on a journey of progressive discovery of the landscape. It is a place suspended over the water where architecture, interior design, and gastronomy meet the dramatic nature of the Norwegian fjords.

At an altitude of over 3,000 meters, Herzog & de Meuron reimagine the summit of Mount Titlis by building upon what already exists. A 1980s telecommunications tower becomes the heart of a new mountain experience. The original steel structure is preserved and expanded with two cantilevered glass volumes, stacked to form a cross visible against the Alpine landscape. Inside, there are visitor facilities, a 140-seat restaurant, and, at the top, an observation deck offering 360-degree views of the Alps. It is a project that transforms technical infrastructure into architecture, working with the existing structure rather than erasing it.

140 years after the debut of its first luxury trains, Orient Express brings its vision of travel to the sea.
Corinthian is the largest sailing yacht ever built: 220 meters in length, propelled by three gigantic rigid sails.
It represents a new approach to travel, where the tradition of hospitality meets naval innovation. The interior design is the work of Maxime d’Angeac, who envisions the spaces as a celebration of fine French craftsmanship and the art of living. It is not merely a yacht, but a new destination in motion. The project translates the legendary Orient Express spirit to the water, transforming the journey itself into an experience. Blending design, technology, and savoir-faire, Corinthian opens a new chapter in the history of luxury hospitality.
