Some landscapes are designed to be seen. Others are designed to be felt. Andrew Van Egmond’s work belongs to the second category. In this edition, we gather projects that do not impose themselves on the land, but listen closely to it — through stone, grasses, weather, horizon and time. What connects them is not a repeated style, but a consistent ethic of restraint. These are landscapes shaped as much by patience as by form.

This special edition is dedicated to Evelyn Müller, a photographer whose work transforms spaces into quiet, immersive narratives. Through light, shadow, texture, and subtle human traces, her images reveal not only architecture and interiors, but the life within them.
