A hall of suspended goldfish. An elastic-powered flying suit. An inhabitable cloud. Realms of Impossibility: Air, Ground and Water is a celebration of unlikely things in a likely world. This three-volume series tells the parallel story of man's occupation of the skies, earth and oceans, dovetailing between environments to shape a composite graphic narrative. Part anthology, part guidebook and part fable, these books represents a new breed of architectural publication, interfacing with the worlds of the internet, film, literature and travel.
