French photographer and graphic designer Romain Jacquet-Lagreze shines with a new collection of photographs entitled “Vertical Horizon of Hong Kong.” The photos take an interesting visual survey of the architecture within Hong Kong’s perpetually growing urban landscape, viewing skyscrapers, tunnels and interiors from the bottommost perspective. The photographs have been collected in the form of a hardcover book, with hundreds of pages composed of these unique images. Jacquet-Lagreze will also host a solo exhibition at AVA in Hong Kong’s own Panorama Hotel, which opened on April 23 and will run through June 24. The book itself can be ordered online now for $280 HKD (approximately $36 USD).
