The GDL House is one of Bernardo Gómez-Pimienta’s first solo productions. After a varied career as founding partner of TEN Arquitectos, Gómez-Pimienta undertakes a total project, from architecture to design, from the house itself to the objects it contains.
With texts by Yoshio Futagawa, Dominique Perrault, Carlos Jiménez, and Miquel Adrià, who bear witness to Gómez-Pimienta’s daring and elegance, this book is a breath of fresh air in the world of Mexican architecture, presenting a house in which –in Adrià’s words– “the most obvious column is the one that isn’t there, the central space is the one that is emptied out, and the most spectacular place is the one that can’t be traversed”.
