内容简介
In the years since its 1985 founding, the architectural firm
TEN (Taller de Enrique Norten) Arquitectos has altered not only the
face of Mexico City but also the international perception of
Mexican architecture. Partners Enrique Norten and Bernardo
Gómez-Pimienta are known for their modernist compositions, often
characterized by light materials, complex forms, and technical
innovation. Yet they have not abandoned the formal and material
heritage of traditional Mexican architecture. This updated edition
includes all the built works featured in the first edition, along
with hotels, residences, and schools built since 1998, including
the acclaimed Hotel Habita in Mexico City (2000), the Educare
Sports Facilities in Guadalajara (2001), and two houses.
