‘Palimpsest Barragán’ offers a unique opportunity to engage closely with a 20th-century modernist architectural masterpiece by Luis Barragán. As a hidden and yet-to-be-recognized gem located in the middle of a paradisiacal jungle on the Pacific coast, the ruins of the unfinished building have faded into obscurity, much like pre-Hispanic pyramids in Mexico. It is currently in a state of progressive decay. The workshop will not only ‘unearth’ the project and finally place it on the map of architectural discourse, but it may also have a greater impact by initiating a debate surrounding the preservation of the disintegrating ruin.
