Abstract

It is no simple task to come across an enclave where the relationship ­­­—particularly edgy in this case— between architecture and territory is reflected with such intensity. In fact, Panticosa is more than a territory or a place: it is a landscape constructed from the hybridisation between sublime nature and human construction and intervention.
