Check out the article which also includes interviews with Charles Renfro of Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Marc Kushner and Mattias Hollwich of HWKN, and Florian Idenburg of SO-IL.

Here’s a little bit about Above:

Responding to the urgent need for sustainable living, Above magazine calls upon the environmentally conscious and everyone else interested in the future by sharpening its focus on the endangered beauty of the world.

It is our firm belief that photography, the plastic arts, fashion, architecture and design can be instrumental in raising awareness about the need to preserve nature and we aim to share our opinionated, yet aesthetic vision, with our readers.
