Lluís Domènech i Montaner

Based on the motto of the time "the beautiful and the useful", Lluís Domènech i Montaner (1849-1923) succeeded in integrating all arts, creating an inexhaustible repertoire of forms, lines, and colors for the benefit of a unique architectural project, consolidating a language and aesthetic models that would establish the foundations of modern design. This book traces the evolution of his work and his thoughts through numerous articles and the analysis of his extensive ornamental program, showcasing his most prominent designs in glass, wood, iron, stone, hydraulic floors, mosaics, and ceramics, skillfully executed by his collaborators, to whom the author also pays a small tribute.
