I came back from Greece with a suitcase worth of candles. Beeswax of course, never paraffin, ranging in width from half an inch to an inch, and in height from 8 inches to 24. These candles were intended to mark a prayer or act as an offering in Greek Orthodox churches, a tradition that Roman Catholics share. Back in my apartment, taken out of context, it still feels holy every time I light one. Perhaps that’s because candlelight is decidedly unmodern.

Sagrada Familia, the Catholic church designed by Antoni Gaudí, isn’t hurting for visitors. Any tourist knows where to go first on their trip to Barcelona. But far fewer are aware of the smaller inventions of its architect. For instance, the Batlló chair, originally designed by Gaudí in 1906, was reissued by BD Barcelona in 2024.
