Antoni Gaudi Manufactures
In the figure of Antoni Gaudi, it is important to distinguish the task of the artist (architect and Designer) of the manufacturer’s. This planter would have as basis a Gaudi design, since the architect was always characterized by its total involvement in their projects, for which studied and designed from architectural spaces until the door knobs, thus controlling even the smallest detail of his work. Therefore, the safest is to deal directly with this design, which should also be especially to their liking, since repeated it in two of their most important houses. Passionate about both traditional and industrial materials combinations, Antoni Gaudi pursues a great naturalist dream, and in his work manages to blend the structure and decoration in a vivid plastic mass, in a totally unique and personal style. This planter has a belly as a traditional vase, that narrows toward the base and completely smooth surface, on which the decoration is developed as a central element freely. A constant in Gaudi is the harmonic combination of naturalism and abstraction of vegetal inspiration, with designs dominated by typical of Art Nouveau, in compositions marked by the asymmetry curve and the track.
