Reservation is necessary and no photographs inside.
We have to memory the colorful ‘Mexican-like’ interior and light from outside on our mind .

Anyway, light is everything.
For example, the door to the top roof terrace has pink wooden swing door, covering the glass door. Adjusting the angle of the wooden door, the amount of light is changed, and the color of inside wall is did slightly.
So beautiful gradation!!!

Luis Barragan has strong interested in ‘Light.’
We have to check it up.
