Palimpsest Barragan poses a once in a lifetime opportunity to engage eye to eye with an architectural masterpiece of 20th century modernism by the Mexican architect Luis Barragan.

‘Palimpsest Barragan’ offers a unique opportunity to engage closely with a masterpiece of 20th-century modernist architecture. The work of architect Luis Barragán, a hidden and as-yet-unrecognized gem nestled in the paradisiacal jungle on the Pacific coast, presents itself as the ruins of an unfinished building that has faded into obscurity.
