Description

Shared Structures, Private Spaces explores 100 years of housing projects in Mexico, examining the relationship between ideas and houses. From bedrooms to streets and society itself, this book analyzes how spaces are represented and defined.

The global phenomenon of urbanization has driven innovative solutions for housing and cities in Mexico, presenting unique challenges in meeting individual needs. This research showcases 70 housing projects, highlighting different approaches to reinventing the house as part of a broader strategy for reimagining living spaces.

Featuring works from prominent architects such as Luis Barragán, Juan O'Gorman, and Tatiana Bilbao, among others, this book offers new perspectives on theories and buildings, aiming to redefine the connection between housing and the city.
