GAUDI - Coffee Table Hardback Book With Leather Jacket, Personalized Gift

Description: Window frames curve like flowering branches and ceramic tiling shimmers like reptilian skin in the fervent architectural imagination of Antoni Gaudí. This introduction to the modernist Catalan architect explores how his outstanding attention to natural detail and unique vision transformed Barcelona’s cityscape with extraordinary buildings that continue to amaze, even a century after their construction.To make the cover I use grade A, naturally tanned hide, I buy from a tannery in north Spain. It is the same leather Louis Vuitton uses to make his bags, so it is top quality. I do all the processing of the leather myself. First, I design the cover, and what I did here on the front I used Guadi inspired painting of Barcelona, and on the back painting of Gaudi's Casa Batalo. Next, I mix leather inks and screen them on the surface of the leather. The inks are partly absorbed by the skin to create a permanent bond. Finally, I coat the leather with protective solution. The leather gives the image a vintage look and beautiful texture, and it will age nicely with time. Inside the front cover. I can print a personal message or a quote from the book.It is a perfect Coffee Table book.
