Antonio Gaudi

Antonio Gaudí (1852–1926) is one of the best-known architects of the twentieth century. Even today, some seventy-five years after Gaudí's death, his playful, exuberant buildings continue to influence architects, sculptors, and designers. Perhaps most identified with the dynamic, sculptural facades found on his structures, Gaudí is respected as much for his technological innovations as for his daring style.
