"This landmark monograph offers the most comprehensive study to date of Luis Barragán, Mexico’s visionary architect and master of space, color, and light. Documenting 119 projects across his career, the volume includes more than 400 illustrations—photographs, drawings, plans, and models—alongside essays by Álvaro Siza, Antonio Toca Fernández, José María Buendía, and Barragán himself. Through biographical notes, chronological surveys, and critical reflections, this edition captures the spirit of Barragán’s poetic modernism and his profound respect for the materials and traditions of the Mexican vernacular. A definitive tribute to one of the 20th century’s most singular architectural voices."
