Introduction

– building a protected shelter within the limitations and possibilities of rockfalls

In recent years, people have become increasingly aware of the dangers of rockfalls and landslides. These events can be devastating to both people and the environment. However, we can shift our perspective to consider the potential opportunities they offer. By using the qualities of stone, we can design structures and systems that protect against these events while also enhancing the environment’s aesthetic and tactile qualities. This concept can transform our understanding of rockfalls from a hazard to an opportunity for creative and sustainable design.
