Spanning the 1920s to the 1980s, Mexican architect Luis Barragán's prolific career evolved through distinct phases. After traveling to the United States and Europe in the early 1930s and immersing himself in an international architectural discourse, Barragán began incorporating principles derived from functionalism and modernism in his work, as seen in the Chávez Peón de Ochoa House, whose unadorned geometric forms contrast with the historically inspired architecture found in the Aguilar House, one of Barragán's early projects in Guadalajara.
