Ezequiel Farca looks to the work of the late design icon Luis Barragan for inspiration, blending tradition with modernity. He focuses on the importance of collaborating with indigenous artisans who work in age-old Mexican crafts, to create environmentally sustainable, indoor/outdoor spaces and furniture with a palette of natural materials, translated through a contemporary luxury lens. This lavish volume features fourteen of his newly built private residences in Mexico and California that show off his spectacular designs for seamless indoor and outdoor living. Drawing inspiration from his Mexican heritage, Farca is a California modernist architect and designer with extensive experience in lifestyle and interiors with a Mexican flair. Notable projects include sun-drenched beach houses in Los Angeles and throughout Mexico that integrate artisanal practices, such as mosaics and patterns of hammered copper, which contribute to the local communities. The book is produced with an exposed spine and clamshell box.
"Citing the late Luis Barragán as inspiration and collaborating with indigenous Mexican craft artisans, Ezequiel Farca is creating a new vernacular for Latin American architecture. And the 16 projects in this book, mainly located in sun-drenched Mexico and California, are showpieces for indoor-outdoor, sustainable living too. In the introduction, AD’s global features director Sam Cochran notes how Farca’s stark exteriors shroud the organically choreographed spaces within: 'If mystery is magic, Farca waves a mighty wand.'" — ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST
