‘If you ask someone what they require of a house, they will usually embark on a long list of functional specifics — a shower as well as a bath, a cupboard for the dog's hair dryer, wood floors. Barragán's house is a potent reminder that what is truly important is nothing quite so tangible, but has to do rather with the qualities of sanctuary, surprise and visual comfort.’
