In and around the Mexican city of Guadalajara, homes are like sanctuaries, built on the legacy of the architect Luis Barragán.

Barragán was 24 when he traveled to Paris in 1925 to attend the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts. He returned to his home city, Guadalajara, raving not about the vanguards emerging in Europe’s architectural scene but instead about a pair of books published that year — “Jardins Enchantés” and “Les Colombières” — by the French landscape architect Ferdinand Bac.

Organized around fountains, pergolas and perfectly framed vistas, Bac’s romantic gardens were, as he wrote, “places of repose [and] peaceable pleasure.” According to the 64-year-old scholar of Tapatío architecture Juan Palomar, those books “represented a synthesis of the Mediterranean — of the European coast and North Africa — that reminded Barragán of his own local architecture.”

And so, for the next decade, while many architects in Mexico City preferred the sharp-edged geometry of early Modernism, Barragán and his cohort filled Guadalajara’s new neighborhoods with Mediterranean villas and Bac-inspired gardens. Their focus, Palomar says, “was an architecture that could attend more closely to the times without breaking with tradition.” The best example might be 1937’s Casa Aranguren, shown here, designed by Pedro Castellanos Lambley and recently renovated into three offices by the architects Francisco Gutierrez and Luis Aldrete.
