Halfway into the 19th century, Spain's Catalonia underwent a sweeping transformation when it was thrust into not one, but 2 golden eras – the Renaixença and the Industrial Revolution. It was during this explosive period of creativity, thriving prosperity, and invigorated patriotism that a steadfastly nonconforming and fascinatingly eccentric icon was born, one that was about to take Catalonia by storm with his brilliant eye for unorthodox art and his legendary – or as some would say, notoriously – out-of-the-box ideas. Salvador Dalí, the celebrated surrealist, was one of many who would find a fount of inspiration in him, even once raving about the Sagrada Familia, the highlight of this icon's career: “Those who have not heard about the chromatic and shining essence of its color, the astonishing polyphony of its towers as organ pipes and shocked by its mutant naturalism, are traitors.” This icon in question, of course, is none other than what many now consider to be the patriarch of the Catalan Modernism movement: Antoni Gaudí. Across the pond, America’s most innovative and prolific architect was Frank Lloyd Wright, whose works are almost too vast and diverse to list. Recognized for designing unique churches and distinctive commercial buildings, and admired for his geometric style house designs, Wright has been widely imitated, and his work continues to influence architecture not only in the United States but around the world. Laymen often think they know the definition of “a Frank Lloyd Wright,” but they probably don’t fully understand the brilliant mind of the man, nor the intricacies of his Prairie Style. Yet it endures because he has made it so, and in many ways, Wright’s architectural career has overshadowed other aspects of his life.Mostra libro

A glorious global celebration of modern railway architecture in the mid-20th century and beyond. Many railway books are about nostalgia for the steam age, but this one is different: a global study of railway architecture from the 1950s onwards and into the future. In 50 fascinating entries, renowned travel and architecture writer Christopher Beanland looks primarily at stations but also covers starkly brutalist signal boxes and depots, charming art-adorned undergrounds and international examples of pioneering signage and design. Station explores LA's iconic Union Station, the verdant Atocha Station in Madrid and Warsaw's spectacular modernist stations, but it also includes less familiar examples such as Saudi Arabia's high-speed Haramain Line, the joyous monorail at Walt Disney World Resort and Mexico's anticipated Tren Maya. The book also contains essays on topics including hanging railways in Germany and Japan, the intriguing architecture and design of Berlin's U-Bahn stations and the joy of interrailing. Illustrated with glorious photographs throughout, this stylish and contemporary book is a celebration of modern railway architecture at its best and will appeal to rail enthusiasts and architecture aficionados alike.Mostra libro
LADY BIRD THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY GRETA GERWIG CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE ABOUT THE FILM Lady Bird is a coming-of-age drama directed by Greta Gerwig, set in Sacramento, California, during the early 2000s. The film follows Christine "Lady Bird" McPherson, a high school senior with dreams of leaving her small town and attending a prestigious college on the East Coast. Throughout the story, Lady Bird navigates her strained relationship with her mother, Marion, her evolving friendships, and her romantic relationships. The film explores themes of identity, family, ambition, and the challenges of growing up. It captures the universal struggle of adolescence, blending humor and emotional depth in its portrayal of self-discovery. TRIVIA SAMPLES: “Saoirse Ronan had some stage experience prior to filming Lady Bird, and the hot stage lights caused some acne. Instead of covering it up, Ronan and makeup artist Jacqueline Knowlton convinced Greta Gerwig to leave it visible to differentiate the film from other coming-of-age dramas featuring teenagers with perfect skin.” “Saoirse Ronan once mentioned that the most challenging word for her to pronounce with an American accent was "perfect."” “Greta Gerwig has revealed that she was the complete opposite of her character "Lady Bird" during her youth, being more strait-laced and less rebellious.” “Greta Gerwig shared that the first draft of the Lady Bird script was 350 pages long, which would have made the film nearly 6 hours long.”Mostra libro
