Gaudi: 1852-1907


I chose Gaudi to do my presentation on because I wanted to emphasize my love for natural lighting and the use of good design in aesthetics. Its amazing when something can work well and look great at the same time.

The cascading colors in Gaudi's work was beautiful. The texture given by the tile alone showed his technique and artistic views but combined with the ability to draw in light made an even greater impact.

I think he emphasizes the concept of Art & Design that the PD program at Stanford with the Engineers & Fine Art students working together exemplifies.




Gaudi Quote: "Everything comes from the great book of nature."



Words I like to use to describe him:

Imagitiveness
Freedom
Individuality
