Barcelona Design With an Expert
Experience the most groundbreaking trends in design, from vintage to contemporary.
Barcelona Design
For centuries, Barcelona has been known for its revolutionary thought, behavior and creativity. Hosting the Universal EXPO of 1888 and the World Fair of 1929, the city earned an international reputation for innovation in Design – expressed most visibly through its architecture. Barcelona today remains dynamic, cosmopolitan, and at the forefront of the world’s artistic breakthroughs in everything from fashion and furniture design to graphic arts and interior decorating. The scope of styles, materials, textures, and technologies is staggering. It’s no wonder artists, architects, designers of all breeds, and all who seek to bask in the imagination of the world’s creative visionaries, make Barcelona a priority destination.
Join our Design Expert on an exciting journey through Barcelona’s most avant-garde showrooms and noteworthy interiors and exteriors – of contemporary design or from throughout the past century – including bookstores, cafes, office buildings, hotels, and more. Encounter creative gadgets, clothing, jewelry & accessories, and home ware & furniture, all displayed originally in sleekly-designed spaces.
