Aesthetic Survival

A guide created in close collaboration with Aurora Realini (aurorarealini), dissecting and examining the culture of bivouacking in the alps.

AESTHETIC SURVIVAL saw co-authors Aurora Realini and Sam Le Roy embark on an expedition to twenty different mountain shelters, starting in Slovenia and venturing across to the French-Italian border.

The role of a bivouac has been redefined over the years, shifting from pure survivalism to what is now a glamorous opportunity for aspiring and heavyweight architects from across the globe to experiment on a new landscape.
