Gaudí Guide

Güell, Xavier (1950- )

Presented in a pocket-sized format, with colour photos and practical information, this is a guide to the work of Antoni Gaudi. This book offers a tour of the buildings the architect created in Barcelona, without forgetting (in a final appendix) those he built in Castille, Cantabria and the Balearic Islands. This is a new ed ition in a more manageable pocket-sized format, with new colour photos and updated practical information, of the guide to the work of Antoni Gaudi published by Gustavo Gili in 1990. This guide offers an exhaustive tour of the buildings the architect created in Barcelona, without forgetting (in a final appendix) those he built in Castille, Cantabria and the Balearic Islands. The description of each building is highly detailed and provides ample documentation, both architectural (ground plans, cross-sections and elevations) and photographic, with views of the interiors and details like ironwork, furniture and mosaics, which illustrate the idea of the "total work of art" typical of his oeuvre.
