Gaudi Designer

Gaudí Designer (1978) – Marta Ribalta | Editorial Blume
Offered by Crappy Old Books

A handsome 1970s volume on Antoni Gaudí, the eccentric Catalan architect who bent stone, tile, and iron into impossible, dreamlike forms. Marta Ribalta’s Gaudí Designer (Editorial Blume, 1978) captures the decorative and structural genius of Barcelona’s most famous modernist with period photographs, illustrations, and insightful commentary.

This isn’t a glossy coffee-table reprint but a true vintage edition – the kind of book that smells faintly of dust and old libraries, with just the right amount of wear on the cover to remind you it has lived a little. A solid copy for collectors, design students, or anyone who wants Gaudí’s surreal curves and mosaics on their shelf without spending Sagrada Família ticket prices.

Condition: Used, with the usual scuffs and quirks you’d expect from something printed in the disco era – perfectly readable, utterly charming.
