'What makes Gaudí and Sagrada Familia so universal is precisely it being so local, so Catalan'

François Picard is pleased to welcome Antoni Vives, former Deputy Mayor of Barcelona in charge of urban planning. According to Vives, the Sagrada Família is not simply an architectural masterpiece. It is a living demonstration of how authenticity, rootedness, and transcendence can converge in a single human project. Its significance lies not only in its extraordinary design, but in its ability to connect the local with the universal, the contemporary with the eternal, and nature with all that’s sacred.
