Discover the vibrant spirit of Mexican design in this compact collection of villas, casitas, haciendas, cabanas, and palapas. Blending Indigenous Aztec and Mayan traditions with Spanish architectural influences, these homes showcase rich colors, woven textiles, bold patterns, and rustic simplicity—all captured in many never-before-published photographs.
From Costa Careyes to the Yucatán Peninsula, Barbara and René Stoeltie guide readers through Mexico’s most remarkable abodes, from Luis Barragán’s iconic Constructivist home to restored 16th-century haciendas and traditional thatched-roof dwellings. This visual journey celebrates the country’s diverse palette of textures, hues, and creative heritage, offering an inspiring immersion into authentic Mexican style.
