Casa Casa BatllóBatlló
TIPS
Local Name: Casa del Ossos (House of Bones)
Characteristic:
1) having a visceral, skeletal organic quality
2) ground floor with tracery, irregular oval windows and flowing sculpted stone work
Much of the facade is decorated with a mosaic made of broken ceramic tiles that starts in shades of golden orange moving into greenish blues
The roof is arched and was likened to the back of a dragon or dinosaur
Sagrada FamiliaSagrada FamiliaConstruction began in 1882 and continues to this day
its building works are expected to be completed around 2026, the 100th anniversary of Gaudi’s death
see the main elements in the design flowers, caves, flowers, and other things from the nature
Every part of the design of La Sagrada Família is rich with Christian symbolism

Parque GuellParque GuellThe entrance to the park
Gaudí's multicolored mosaic dragon fountain at the main entrance, prior to vandalism early in 200
At the top of Guell park is a terraced area where you get a wonderful view of the park and of Barcelona City
Here you will find multi-coloured tiled mosaic seats as shown in this picture. The vibrant colours of the tiles are truly breathtaking
The unique shape of the serpentine bench enables the people sitting on it to converse privately, although the square is large
The bench is tiled and in order to dry up quickly after it rains, and to stop people from sitting in the wet part of the bench, small bumps were installed by Gaud
Gaudi's Tiled Mosaics on the ceiling
Casa MilaCasa Mila
six storey, fluid design
The wavy facade reminds one also of an undulating beach of fine sand
full of twisted curves
Gaudi had said: Only men drew straight lines – God and nature much preferred curves
The roof sports an imitation of the bench from Guell Park as well as an ever more impressive series of bizarre chimney stacks
Catenary arches under the terrace of Casa Milà
