- Summary
- Born in 1949, architect Alberto Rimoch is a transitional figure in Mexican architecture between the generation of Barragán and Lagoretta, and the new guys (like Isaac Broid, who writes one of the fine appreciations in this book) who are forging the next path. As Alberto Ruy Sánchez writes here, Rimoch's work has "the common sense of a warm wind." Specializing in apartment complexes and commercial buildings over the last 30 years, Rimoch's designs are modernist in style with a big helping of imagination and the colors and materials of the Mexican vernacular. This volume is a survey of ten of his most recent projects in the upscale Mexico City neighborhoods of Roma and Condesa.
