I have always been captivated by the quiet power of natural spaces, driving my passion to design architecture at Form.

[About project]

Aetheria is carved directly into the cliffside, embracing the raw geology. Suspended just above a river, the structure draws in soft light, shaping interiors that feel ethereal.
