Gaudi
2001

Full bound goatskin with multi coloured onlays. Title hand lettered in gold. The design is a tribute to the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi and his works in Barcelona. The border of the covers is inspired by the "trencadis": the mosaic seats in the "Park Guell", built between 1900 and 1914. The chimney design on the front board corresponds to the chimneys situated in the roof of the "Casa Mila (La Pedrera)", built between 1906 and 1910. The brown leather relates to nature as the inspiration of Gaudi's work.
