Houses: Space, Volume and Texture

We, the Mexican people, are warm and make good hosts. We want our homes to reflect our own personality, to allow us to enjoy every single corner, to give us pleasure from hanging up a fine painting and to bring us peace when we walk in through the front door, leaving behind the hustle and bustle of the cities we live in at breakneck pace: something akin to the tranquility we find on entering a church or any other place of worship. For most Mexicans, the home is not merely a dwelling place, it is a form of pleasure, and this is depicted in this series of books that has made the whole world aware of the fine architecture being created today.
