First sentence: The late 1960s and early 1970s were pivotal for the developing philosophy and approach to design of Abraham Zabludovsky.
Description: Abraham Zabludovsky's work is a response to the characteristics of site, inscribing its own language--characterized by the revalorization of the wall, the search for permanent textures, and the use of chiseled concrete with exposed marble chips--on a spatial concept that takes up the tradition of Mexican architecture of patios and porticoes to interrelate the interior space and the urban environment.
