Javier Sánchez and Waldo Higuera are best known for their vigorous renovation of the Condesa neighborhood –a zone characterized by its art deco legacy– in central Mexico City. As a reaction against the current fashion of developing high-security suburban residential enclaves, Higuera+Sánchez propose an architecture that combines the vision of the urban planner with that of the architect, developer, economist, and contractor. Fully illustrated with plans, photographs, and renderings, including images of sites under construction, this book presents more than twenty projects, accompanied by critical essays by Miquel Adrià, Felipe Leal, and Teddy Cruz.
