Luis Barragan
Mexican, 1902 - 1988
Luis Barragán (1902-1988) was a Mexican architect and one of the most important figures in the history of modern architecture. Born in Guadalajara, Mexico, Barragán studied civil engineering at the Escuela Libre de Ingenieros in Guadalajara and then continued his studies in Europe, where he was influenced by the works of Le Corbusier and other modernist architects.

Barragán was awarded the Pritzker Prize in 1980, which is considered the highest honor in the field of architecture.
