Mexico City, MX. 		"TEN´s architecture is one of transition. This is not merely to state that it is, within itself, changing. That much is obvious, if one studies carefully the development of the firm´s work over the past decade. Rather it refers to a shift in understanding that is underway in society generally, to which TEN´s architecture responds and which, to an increasing extent, it attempts to lead. TEN is avantgarde, most certainly within the relatively conservative context of Mexican society, but also within the limits of anywhere´s status quo. Its insistent overlaying of the designed and the spontaneous, the Cartesian and chaos, of the consistent and diverse, aims at the realization in architecture´s elementary terms of a new, and nuanced, paradoxicality of living". Lebbeus Woods
THE WORK OF TEN ARQUITECTOS.
ENRIQUE NORTEN, LORCH PROFESSOR OF ARCHITECTURE
1997 Edition
Michigan Architecture Papers Three (MAP Three)
Texts by Enrique Norten, Robert M. Beckley and Brian Carter.
Photographs by Luis Gordoa, Timothy Hursley, Laura Cohen and Armando Hashimoto. 		"The following series of projects, each very different from one to another has been selected as a representation of my work. I understand these projects as fragments of a body of work –an incomplete, to be completed body of work– that will only be done at the end of our careers whenever that may be. All of the projects speak to each other, relate to each other, complement each other and many of the issues addressed arise in more than one project. Therefore, I will try to identify significant themes to give you an idea of the processes of development of our office during the past ten years". Enrique Norten

Texts by Richard Ingersoll, Terence Riley and Michael Sorkin.
Photographs by Luis Gordoa, Michael Caldewood, Laura Cohen, Armando Hashimoto, Timothy Hursley, Luis Montalvo, Tim Street Porter, David Resnikoff, Paul Zitrom and Ursula Zülch.
"As it is impossible to include every one of our projects, I have selected a collection that I think represents the landmarks of our career. They are different in size, type, scale, program, and place, showing the various approaches and ideas with which we have confronted architecture. The selected work is organized chronologically with the goal of demonstrating the process through which we have journeyed." Enrique Norten

ENRIQUE NORTEN: A HOUSE IN THE CITY
2003 Edition
Edited by Brooke Hodge, Harvard Design School
Texts by Mirki Zardini, Carlos Jiménez, Briggitte Shim, Brooke Hodge and Jorge Silvetti.
Photographs by Andrew Bush and Luis Gordoa.
"Amost all of Norten´s work has been in Mexico City and much of it engaged with the concerns of community. He has designed workers housing, schools, museums, markets and public parks, in addition to private homes-including his own, the subject of this publication. House LE where Norten lives with his wife and two children, is situated in the dense, urban neighborhood where he grew up, where the same barber who cut Norten´s father´s hair and his own as a child now cuts his son´s. The house represents both a celebration of Norten´s roots and an exploration of the pleasures of modernism in its use of light, space, nature, and materials. Like all of Norten´s work, his home is thoroughly Mexican but entirely original. It belongs foremost to a global culture, embraced by one of the most distinguished young architects of the continent." Jorge Silvetti

 "Would it be possible to think about Enrique Norten without referring to where he was born? The reception of his work has generally been framed by one version of regionalism or another where the particularities of locale are said to balance the generalities of the global condition. This perspective, pursued first by Sigfried Gideon and updated by Kenneth Frampton, significantly expanded the way the field understood both the development and range of modern architecture: it demonstrated the capacity of modernism to be self-critical, to soften, to evolve. Norten himself presents his work through the lens of what could be called advanced regionalism". Sylvia Lavin
WORKING. 20 PROJECTS IN PROCESS
2007 Edition
The Monacelli Press
Texts by Deyan Sudjic, Enrique Norten and TEN Arquitectos.
Photographs by dbox, Field Operations, Luis Gordoa, Ignacio Marquina, MRZ Arquitectos, Grupo de diseño urbano, and Wallace Roberts and Todd.

New York, NY. USA.
 "In the two decades since its founding in Mexico City, TEN Arquitectos has soared to a position of international acclaim. Firm Principal Enrique Norten is known for a robust modern style that combines elements of high-tech; a clear, a times diagrammatic expression of function; and a concern for environmental sustainability. Conceived to represent the current state of the practice, Working: 20 Projects in Process is a dynamic presentation of photographs, models, drawings, and renderings. A vital element in Norten´s design process is what he calls the "jellyfish diagram"; these graphically innovative analyses of program and site are translated, more or less directly, into final building form. Representations of the works at each phase of development offer insight into the rich variety of projects on the drawing boards". The Monacelli Press

Photographs by Luis Gordoa, Fondation Le Corbusier, Museum of Modern Art and INBA.
Edited and designed by Alejandro Hernández
Mexico City, MX. 		"Intentions: the forces into play that put in tension the processes in which forms are defined. In the projects that are shown in this exhibition we can see more or less discontinuous series crossing, contaminating and retro-feeding each other. Alterations in iteration of types, forms and ideas working in a series of processes in at least three speeds: the long span process of the city and architectural history, the shorter ones –at least in relation to the former- of specific projects and, intertwining them, a process that defines TEN Arquitectos intentions and positions in face of tendencies and milieus. Forms, successful or precise they might be or, rather, for their precision, are important as condensers of longer sequences, points in trajectories that do not stop to change configuration. Each one can become a sort of nucleus around which are assembled, and with which are consequently coordinated, all the developments and variations of other forms. In each one of the projects shown here can be found interior structures of forms containing the possibility of infinite variation and further structural modification". Alejandro Hernández
