Product Description

An exploration of the charm and sophistication of Mexican style, celebrating the variety and beauty of Mexican houses, inside and out. It displays the mixture of cultures, heritage and natural influences of which they are a result. Mexican style is a contrast between wisdom and naivety. The houses of Mexico mix the heritage of the Toltecs and Mayas with that of the French and Spanish invaders. The land itself is a strong influence on Mexican architecture, from seashore to desert and jungle to mountaintop. Tim Street-Porter is the author of "Freestyle: The New Architecture" and "Interior design from Los Angeles".
