Tired of neighborhood disputes? Then off to the places where at most the howling of the wind keeps us awake at night. In “Living on the Edge”, Agata Toromanoff shows us that nothing is more valuable than contact with nature – and sometimes also more adventurous.

Living on the Edge
Well, you hardly hang the washing outside to dry in one of these houses. The risk of losing your pretty summer dress to the cliff is too great. If you want the full blast of nature, you live where forces meet. The sea in front of our noses or the pure expanse – wherever we end up, Agata Toromanoff has probably already been there. For “Living on the Edge”, the art historian let the wind whip her in the face and visited all those houses that are located in places so unreal that they only become reality through your own eyes.

Amangiri & Camp Sarika in Utah may not be on the edge of the abyss, but its location makes it just as spectacular.
