Akoura Residence Youssef Tohme Architects
"Conceived by Youssef Tohme as a break with the city, this house perched on a cliff edge in Lebanon is a monolith dressed in local stone mounted upon concrete walls. Up in the mountains at an altitude of 1200 meters, this house perched on a cliff edge came about as the result of a special request of a client seeking both distance from and a break with the city.Dressed in local stone mounted upon concrete walls, the SC house was approached as a dislocation, its outer skin torn from the mountain it seems to resemble." - via Domus
