- Summary:
- The enchanted world portrayed in this book has been created by architects and artisans out of simple, basic materials. The book offers excellent examples of the native Mexican art of building, much of it done with primitive methods that achieve greta dignity in their proportions and provide ideas of form and color for interior decoration and furniture.
- An excellent source of inspiration to be adapted in modern houses anywhere.
