Among the works presented is the Vallarta line, designed in 1972 for the Hotel Camino Real in Puerto Vallarta. The series includes chairs, tables, consoles and stools made with pine and woven palm, conceived specifically for the hotel’s interiors and architectural environment. The presentation is accompanied by a selection of photographs from the Legorreta family archive documenting some of his most significant projects, providing a direct visual context for the architectural spaces in which the furniture was originally conceived.

The exhibition also includes a series of ceramic table lamps by Antonio Attolini Lack, whose concept of “integral architecture” extended beyond the building itself to encompass furniture, lighting, textiles, objects and interiors. His ceramic works reflect the same attention to material, craftsmanship, proportion and surface that characterises his architectural practice. Through restrained forms and a strong sensitivity to the qualities of the material, these objects extend architectural thinking into a smaller scale, establishing a direct relationship between the object, the interior and the human body.

Together, the works by Legorreta and Attolini reveal a modernism in which architecture, furniture and objects form part of a continuous spatial and material language. Their practices demonstrate how Mexican modernism extended beyond buildings to encompass the environments and objects that shaped everyday experience, connecting architecture with craftsmanship, material culture and domestic life. The presentation at Frieze Masters brings these works together through the direct collaboration of the architects’ families and archives, offering a focused view of a modernism defined not only by buildings, but by the material world created around them.
