'INVENTOR, DREAMER', ALUMN ENRIQUE ESPINOSA '74 OF MEXICO PRESENTS HIS WORK AND HIS RECENT BOOK 'Distancias Caminable' (Walkable Urban Design).

Entrepreneur, architect, sculptor and author – a true Renaissance Man! – gave an overview of his wide range of interests. His factory designed and built all of the public telephone booths in Mexico, along with many memorials as well as innovative streetlights and other public furniture. His work as a sculptor was applauded by being the first Mexican to exhibit at the Vatican. He designed and built rapid housing from cast-off plastic bottles.
