Cavity and Limit

Cavity and Limit investigates architecture through the specific research area of the limit, its corrosion and of cavity. The book analyses the built form of two different architecture methods, tectonics and stereotomic, through the archetypes of the hut and the cavern. The book studies how the limit is gradually reduced to simple elements of technology and media and how an element is then deprived of the strength of its matter and space. The book is enriched by a profound reaction on the theme in a preface by Alberto Campo Baeza.
