The Representation of Ambiguity on the Spaces of Luis Barragán House and Studio

Luis Barragán House and Studio, designed by the renowned architect in 1947, exemplifies his groundbreaking approach to spatial representation through ambiguity. This study reveals how Barragán's architectural language was first established here, blending symbolic elements with fluid spatial experiences to evoke emotional responses. The research employs a detailed analysis of the site's design, focusing on its use of color, light, and materiality to create layered perceptions that challenge conventional spatial interpretation. By dissecting these ambiguous spaces, the study highlights Barragán's innovative integration of cultural symbolism and sensory engagement, offering insights into his enduring influence on modern architecture.
