Antoni Gaudí was a Spanish Catalan architect who belonged to Art Nouveau movement and was famous for his unique and highly individualistic designs.Antoni Gaudí was born in the province of Tarragona in Catalonia .During his youth, Antoni Gaudí suffered many times from the rheumatic fevers that were common at the time. This illness caused him to spend much time in isolation, and it also allowed him to spend lots of time alone with nature.It was this exposure to nature at an early age which is thought to have inspired him to incorporate natural shapes and themes into his later work Gaudí, throughout his life, studied nature's angles and curves and incorporated them into his designs and mosaics. Instead of relying on geometric shapes, he mimicked the way men stand upright. The hyperboloids and paraboloids he borrowed from nature were easily reinforced by steel rods and allowed his designs to resemble elements from the environment.Gaudí, among others, promoted the Catalan movement for regaining sovereignty from Spain by incorporating elements of Catalan culture in his designs. Gaudí's architecture is a total integration of materials, processes and poetics. Gaudí's originality was at first ridiculed by his peers. Indeed, he was first only supported by the rich industrialist Eusebi Güell.. As time passed, though, his work became more famous. He stands as one of history's most original architects
