Life:
Born in Barcelona (Catalonia) in 1858.
Sagnier received his degree as architect in 1882.
Enric Sagnier i Villavecchia, is not perhaps the most original architect of
Catalan Art Nouveau, but surely he is one of
the most prolific (more of 30 interesting buildings only in Barcelona).
Enric Sagnier is part of Gaudí orbit and is basically oriented to Art Nouveau in its gothic
tendency manifested in the buildings of la Caixa de Pensions. His personal
style is sometimes also influenced by rococo as in the
House
Arnús.
In addition of his common work as a designer of living houses, he is also
the architect of other institutional buildings in Barcelona as the Palace
of Justice, designed together with Josep Domènech i Estapà, and the Nova
Duana (New Customs house), together with Pere Garcia i Faria.
He is also the architect of religious constructions as the Church and Monastery
of Pompeia, the Capella Francesa (French chapel), and the
Tibidabo Temple finished by his son Josep Maria Sagnier i Vidal.
After that period, at the end of his life, he designed other buildings in
different styles, as for example the Basilica of Sant Josep Oriol in
Barcelona (Renaissance style) in 1926.
Enric Sagnier i Villavecchia died in Barcelona in 1931.
