Review

Written by jacabook

Antoni Gaudí is the father of Catalan Modernism. Every year millions of tourists crowd to admire, in addition to the Sagrada Familia, the houses, the parks, the public and private buildings that he left us. Antoni Gaudí, who lived between the second half of the nineteenth century and the first three decades of the twentieth century, is the greatest exponent of Catalan modernism. His interest in living comes from a meditated observation of the social and urban transformations taking place in Barcelona and Catalonia at the dawn of the new century. Spaces, shapes and ornaments translate into places of life a synthesis of culture and architecture among the most innovative ever recorded in memory of man. In this volume, richly illustrated by Marc Llimargas' photographic campaign, the authors explore the concept of habitat elaborated by Gaudí in his projects for city residences, country estates but also parks, gardens and garden-cities, where even today we can admire his prophetic legacy. The book also focuses on the contribution given to the master by the numerous and valuable artisans who he used to give substance to his new visual universe.
