Casa Mexicana
Novinka
The best new houses from Mexico, currently the exciting epicentre of the architecture scene fuelled by brilliant young practices, a booming economy and a liberal sprinkling of concrete, with stunning photography by Edmund Sumner.
Mexico’s domestic architecture scene is booming, with some of the most exciting houses anywhere in the world popping up all over this vast country in the last decade. Photographer Edmund Sumner has rounded up the best examples, each of which plays with texture through the use of concrete and stone, maximizes the piercing quality of the light, and innovates in terms of space. The book invites the reader into the heart of a fun, young scene where individuality is key.
Twenty-six houses demonstrate the trends and themes in Mexican residential architecture now, with plans and drawings included for the architects. However, the focus of the book is on the allure of the contemporary Mexican lifestyle as lived in these spaces. These are sun-saturated houses in extraordinary landscapes, beautifully photographed, and each with a detailed profile setting them in context.
