To survey the work of Mexican architect Javier Senosiain (born 1948) requires a journey through a particular trajectory in the history of architecture, from Frank Lloyd Wright and Bruno Zevi to Alvar Aalto, Eero Saarinen and Jørn Utzon. These pioneers of organic modernism faced the 20th century's mechanistic, functionalistic and rationalistic proposals with a vision that sought to revive an organic relationship between humans and their environments.

Senosiain's concept of “Organic Architecture” follows in this tradition. Throughout his career, Senosiain's work has explored the relations between user, site and architecture in spaces that echo natural forms and conditions. “The concept of an organic habitat,” he writes, “is the creation of spaces adapted to man that are also similar to a mother's bosom or an animal's lair.” This volume surveys Senosiain's work since the 1970s and his concept of “Organic Architecture.”

要了解墨西哥建筑师哈维尔·塞诺西恩（Javier Senosiain，生于1948年）的作品，需要经历建筑史上一个特定的轨迹，从弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特（Frank Lloyd Wright）和布鲁诺·泽维（Bruno Zevi）到阿尔瓦·阿尔托（Alvar Aalto）、埃罗·沙里宁（Eero Saarinen）和约恩·乌特松（Jørn Utzon）。这些有机现代主义的先驱者面对20世纪的机械主义、功能主义和理性主义，寻求恢复人类与环境之间的有机关系。

塞诺西恩的“有机建筑”概念继承了这一传统。在塞诺西恩的职业生涯中，他的作品在呼应自然形式和条件的空间中探索了用户、场地和建筑之间的关系。他写道：“有机建筑的概念，是创造适应人类的空间，这些空间也类似于母亲的怀抱或动物的巢穴”。本卷调查了塞诺西恩自1970年代以来的作品和他的“有机建筑”概念。
