i think you should be more specific. asking for references 'related to hills' is like asking for important buildings built on flat land. the examples are innumerable.
ur right,
however i need whatever case related to hills
both case of slope, preserved and not preserved
or it could be on the top of the hill
and, an unbuilt projfect doens't matter
to be specific
done by starchitects, plz?

a building on the top of the hill,
long rectangular mass,
with openings in the middle of the mass
according to hilltop contour lines.
Hill-Related Architecture
Hi,
i'm doing a case study on buildings that are related to hills.

or
inside the hill
.........................etc.
i can't remember of one
any ideas,,???
more seriously, renzo piano's studio engages a big hill if I remember correctly. other examples are escaping me.
