Latest updates
I recently participated in the ‘Commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the death of August Font‘ with a talk about two of his Gothic Revival designs: the façades of the churches of Sants Just i Pastor in Barcelona and Santa Maria del Mar in Vilafranca del Penedès. The event was organised by the Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (UIC) and the Association of Architects for the Defence & Intervention in Architectural Heritage in Catalonia (AADIPA)
