Edmund Sumner's new book 'Casa Mexicana' explores the evolution of contemporary Mexican architecture over 12 years. Featuring 26 homes, it highlights themes of material nuance, spatial restraint, and ecological sensitivity. Through his photographs, Sumner captures the essence of Mexico's diverse terrain and vibrant architectural culture, showcasing works from notable designers. He emphasizes architecture's narrative potential, illustrating how buildings interact with their environments. The book promotes discussions on the innovative practices in Mexican architecture and aims to elevate these conversations on a global scale.
"Mexico has an infectious optimism in the air. The people I meet, the designers I work with, the architecture I shoot is unified by a sense of curiosity, confidence, and the purest understated style."
"While photography is a visual medium, I hope my work serves as a conduit through which to bring conversations of emerging architecture to a global stage."
