Architecture Term
Cliff
A steep rocky slope descending sharply toward the sea or a valley. Building on a cliff site means engaging the view directly while respecting the terrain's slope and ground stability. In MEEZ Mimarlık's Falez Villa, the building reaches out from the site on a cantilever rather than simply sitting on it.
