Montoliu translated many of Shakespeare's plays into Catalan and can be remembered as the great translator of John Ruskin, almost unknown to the Catalan intelligentsia of the time. In 1903 Cebrià de Montoliu participated as speaker in the Catalan University Congress.

He was also a follower of great town planners such as Ebenezer Howard and Patrick Geddes and met Geddes at the Civic Building Exhibition in Ghent, Belgium in 1913. He proposed a museum in Barcelona which would open its doors to coincide with the International Electrical Exhibition that had been planned in the city in 1917. He was then influential in the development of Barcelona as a Garden City, and was noted for his ecological town planning. He has been described as an interpreter of .
