Abstract :
WHEN FRENCH photographer Romain Jacquet-Lagreze moved to Hong Kong four years ago he was inspired to capture the feeling of living in a high-rise environment of a city where seven million people are squeezed into an area of just 426 square miles. His first ´Vertical Horizon´ collection proved so popular after pictures went viral on the Internet that he´s produced a second, illustrating the city´s ever-growing skyline.
