The houses of Mexican architect Luis Barragán evoke glamour and simplicity, modernity and nostalgia, respect for tradition and revolutionary turns. The influence of his childhood home, a former Mexican hacienda, is clear and yet contrasted with his bold use of colours.

In this book five of his house designs are lavishly pictured, both interior and exterior.
