From 1925 to 1929, two young architectural draftsmen set out to record a select number of examples of the aminor domestic architecturea of Mexico due to a lack of measured drawings of rural ranch houses and Monterey-inspired dwellings. The result is a wonderful collection of houses from the days of Mexico's viceroys, elaborately presented in this handsomely illustrated book. Every aficionado of architecture or home design will find the patios, window designs, and floor plans a delight to look at. Over two-hundred illustrations, including forty-two pages of measured drawings and floor plans, make this a comprehensive reference guide as well as an elegant coffee table book.2 Patio oi a house on the Plaza de San Miguel 3 The arched entrance at San Antonio 4 Scale details. ...
