Gods architect Gauds ravishing symbiosis between built environment and natural worldFrom the towering Sagrada Famlia to the shimmering, textured facade of Casa Batll and the enchanting landscape of Park Gell, its easy to see why Antoni Gaud (1852 1926) gained the epithet Gods architect . With fluid forms and mathematical precision, his work extols the wonder of natural creation: columns soar like tree trunks, window frames curve like flowering branches, and ceramic tiling shimmers like scaly, reptilian skin.With this outstanding attention to natural detail, his inspirations from both neo-Gothic and Orientalist aesthetics, and a lifelong commitment to Catalan identity, Gaud created a unique brand of the Modernista movement which transformed, and defines, Barcelona s cityscape.With seven of Gauds projects listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, this book introduces the architects extraordinary vision and unique legacy, exploring the influences and the details which allow his buildings to impress, inspire, and amaze, one century after their construction.
