Architecture from the Air: Part I
By Fernando Guerra
For most of us, architecture is predominantly experienced from the ground, but there is something about the aerial view that fascinates. More often than not, it remains the privilege of high-rise living or part of the fun of flying, but it also reveals a rare way of experiencing design and one that shows architecture within its surroundings from a unique angle; be it a single building, a complex or a landscape.
To bring you a new, elevated perspective, we’ve teamed up with portuguese photographer Fernando Guerra. He and his team have been experimenting with cameras attached to a lightweight, flying drone. For part one of a new series, we show you a selection of new and recent architecture projects in Portugal and beyond – all seen from air. Check back soon for the next instalment.
