Summary:

"Mexico has long been a wellspring of inspiration for designers, with its rich architectural heritage shaping both national and international discourse. Visionary architects featured in this book such as Agustín Hernández Navarro, Luis Barragán, Ricardo Legorreta, and Javier Senosiain have left an indelible mark on modern architecture, as can be seen in the groundbreaking recent works that are also showcased in these pages. In this lavishly illustrated volume, Christiansen explores Mexico's architectural diversity, presenting homes that embody a profound sense of place through exceptional design. From organic dwellings that merge seamlessly with rural landscapes to bold urban structures that challenge conventions of form and space, to sculptural seaside sanctuaries that rise like temples from the sand, each project offers a unique perspective on the country's evolving design language."
