Mexican Architects: A Contemporary Vision
by Omar Fuentes & Fernando de Haro

The vivid colors, smooth lines, and traditional touches that define contemporary Mexican architecture come to life in this richly illustrated book, which showcases the work of 21 top Mexican architects. The 150 color photographs illustrate the diversity of contemporary Mexican architecture.

Each project shows a strong commitment to blending the contemporary styles with the best of Mexican tradition. Each focuses on solutions that the architects achieved, in the context of distinctive Mexican styles, and illustrates how Mexican architecture integrates and balances proportion, functionality, context, and materials. Harmonic integration of function and form, a combination of elegance and functionality, and a careful blending of exterior and interior design are all part of the scheme. The end result: meeting the needs of the people who live in the space by enhancing their quality of life and relationship to their environment.
