Luis Barragán at his home in Tacubaya. Natures of the limit

In Barragán's works, the wall appears in a first approximation as an element that separates domains of different nature: interior-exterior, sky-earth... placing emphasis on polarity. What other limits define your work? How do they materialize? What causes those limits to fluctuate? What are the variables that generate the architectural quality of places? To explore these questions, in this book the author proposes a phenomenological approach through a series of tools that show aspects of Architecture linked to the limit. A new way of approaching the work of the Mexican architect, and through it experiencing other works of architecture using all our senses. The publication is accompanied by scale plans of the house, and an exclusive photo report.
