More information about Antonio Gaudi’s designs.

These are some information I gather on the Barcelona trip:

Antonio Gaudi was a Spanish designer bon in 1852 in Reus, Spain. He studied at the Escola Superior d'Arquitectura in Barcelona and designed his first major commission for the Casa Vincens in Barcelona using a Gothic Revival style that set a precedent for his future work. He was very passionate believer in God and his he was using religious aspects in some of his designs. He developed sensuous, curving; almost surreal design style established him as the innovative leader of the Spanish Art Nouveau movement. His hard work reflects in his designs. Three days before his death he was run over by a tram in Barcelona in 1926 and because of that he passed away. The accident didn’t stop him of hard work and until his last breath he was drawing his ideas on paper.


La Sagrada Familia
These are pictures I took of the Sagrada Familia cathedral design by Antonio Gaudi. As you can see the building is very different then comment knows cathedrals all over the world. Gaudi was working on this project for 10 years and you can see that every element of this structure is worked to the perfection. All the components are working together and create an impression of movement. The design is very dynamic and full of energy plus it inspired me as well. His designs defiantly made me curtained that I want to be a designer myself

One of the biggest impacts on my project had this staircase inspired by nature (shell). I love the dynamic and look of this set of stairs. There is defiantly movement capture with in this structure
