Gaudí & Trencadís Mosaic

Bys: Pla Boada, Ricard, Vivas Ortiz, Pere, Freixa Serra, Mireia

Trencad s mosaic is one of the hallmarks of the Catalan Art Nouveau movement and of Gaudi's architecture.

Without it, it wouldn't be possible to recognize the famous bench in the Park G ell or the fa ade of Casa Batll , for instance.

This book takes the reader on a step-by-step journey, going through all of Gaudi's works where he used this technique, explaining the historical and cultural background of the architect; the different techniques of the older brother of trencad s, the classical mosaic and the Arab world; as well as the different materials used by Gaudi to make trencad s and its functionality.
