Beyond the tiles: Gaudí's overlooked neo-gothic masterpieces

Summary

This article explores five lesser-known neo-gothic buildings by Antoni Gaudí, contrasting them with his more famous tile-covered, organic modernist works. It highlights Gaudí's early gothic revival style — characterized by stone, pointed arches, buttresses, and castle-like forms — through specific examples like the Palacio Episcopal de Astorga, Casa Botines, and the Colegio Teresiano. The piece argues these works deserve more attention as they reveal a different, equally important dimension of Gaudí's architectural genius.
