Mexican A Journey Through Design By: Newell Turner Foreword by Susana OrdovasAn American expat searches vibrant cities and quiet pueblos for the essence of Mexican style Revealing the richly visual and cultural details that are the essence of Mexican style, design editor and photographer Newell Turner has done for Mexican design what legendary culinary pioneer Diana Kennedy did for Mexican food. Elegantly organized around nine decisive decorative periods that have shaped México’s unique design journey to the present day, Turner establishes a visual dialogue with the reader that beautifully captures the depth and subtleties of the country’s aesthetic legacy. Ushered behind the walls, gates, and doors of private México, we are introduced to an intriguing world of interior design and architecture—including the highly developed civilizations pre-dating the arrival of Columbus; the Spanish colonial arts; the dynamic response to global movements such as Art Deco and Surrealism; and a rich survey of modernist and contemporary work. Woven intricately into this history is Turner’s own story of discovering the distinctive soul of México, where —in the spirit of memoirs in which a traveler discovers another country —he finds himself along the way. In this vivid volume of color, texture and contrasts, Turner examines the extraordinary range of Mexican design with the insight of a true devotee. The breathtaking photography shows how every room, courtyard, loggia—and even a chair, or an arrangement of flowers—are part of a rich design heritage. Turner spent his magazine career chronicling American style, and now his unerring eye...

She created many of the early designs for Los Castillo before the marriage ended in 1946. She opened her own shop, Margot de Taxco, in 1947. Margot is known primarily for high quality work in champlevé enamel, the production of which began in 1955. Another “Margot de Taxco” shop was located in Mexico City at Juarez, Number 14, featuring “well-designed enamel inlays… also silver.” Following a series of labor and government-imposed financial burdens the shop went bankrupt in 1977. A few of the former silversmiths at Margot were allowed to continue to use some of her molds after the shop finally closed in 1978.
