Architect Luis Barragan (1902 – 1988) was not afraid of color. In fact he liked color in huge expanses and interesting patterns, all juxtaposed with shifting angles and light. He was a man of magenta and cobalt blue, adobe walls, lattices of warm summer yellow, sunset pink alcoves, all on a grand architectural scale. His vivid sensuous color, space and utilization of light was a bold mix of Mexican and European style born of his well traveled life.
