Whether old or new, in wood or metal, the door is an important architectural and decorative element. In addition to its defensive function (to close and separate the interior from the exterior), it also has a welcoming function: it is often the first thing a visitor sees, and it is responsible for the image he or she has of the building, and even of its owner.

This book, which focuses on the visual aspect of doors, presents more than 300 of them, thus offering a tool for comparison and study of applied architecture. All are European and representative of the diversity of styles employed, whether classical, rustic or Art Nouveau, city or country, found in Barcelona, Paris, Copenhagen or Dublin, from the luxurious monumental door to the humble stable door.
