Because of the decrease in the availability of land area and the ever-increasing price per square meter, cities often tend to grow vertically. When we picture large metropolitan areas, we almost always imagine high-rise buildings, and the recognizable skyline becomes an icon that immediately evokes the places in which they are located.
If we compare it to the Cartesian coordinate system, this vertical growth makes the 'z-axis' assume a greater significance and thus requires a more distant point of view to better understand its form. By looking at these tall buildings from afar and grasping their surroundings - either close, still within the city limits, or on the outskirts - one can identify even the most invisible aspects.
