Casa Ortega: Barragan's Hidden Garden
Discover the serene beauty of Jardín 17 and Casa Ortega, one of the most intimate and revealing ensembles within Luis Barragán’s legacy. In this hidden oasis, architecture and nature engage in a quiet dialogue through the masterful use of space, light, color, and the silent atmospheres that define his vision of emotional architecture.
Gain access to an exceptionally private space: the house where Barragán lived for a period of time and used as his experimental laboratory—a key place where he developed ideas, proportions, gestures, and spatial relationships that would later be fully realized in his masterpieces. You will walk through lush gardens, chromatic walls, and geometric compositions that reveal the origins of his architectural language.
This experience includes a full visit to Jardín 17, Casa Ortega, and Jardín Ortega—three intimately connected spaces that offer a deeper understanding of how Barragán observed, tested, and refined his approach to nature and light.
