This book serves as the most comprehensive testament to the world of Milton Barragán Dumet as an architect. His architecture, which addresses timeless human themes, is considered among the most significant in Ecuador and Latin America. It acts as a visible and tangible link to the identity, symbolic creation, and unique aesthetic of its architect, as well as his vision of the city.
This volume compiles critical essays on Barragán’s work, an unpublished interview with the architect, and a selection of 20 projects that stand out in the urban landscape of Quito and its surroundings, all richly illustrated with plans, photographs, and details.
