Houses: Simplicity Vanguard

These last ten years of outlining residential architecture in Mexico have marked, beyond all doubt, a period of moving closer to a public hungry for information and which has interpreted and reinterpreted the spaces, ideas and details that emerge from the workshops of a great many architects, mostly young, who have featured in these books. The projects included in these editions display a range of influences, from the international architecture of the 1950's and 1960's to the new world architecture, of course passing through the “Barraganist” architecture that helped put Mexico on the architectural map and which is a great starting point that allows us, in turn, to be original and think more about our values as a society and a nation.
