Casa Batllo - An amazing Structure!
Anthony Gaudi
may be the most celebrated and famous modern architecht, whose
structures are considered no less an art form than residential
buildings. Gaudi has, and continues to be, an inspiration and a
marvellous example of creativity and thinking outside the box. One of
his most interesting creations is Casa Batllo. Its beauty is hard to
describe in words, and so we've brought you these photos, so you can
feast your eyes on this extraordinary building!

The building stands at the heart of
Barcelona since 1877, but did not feel the touch of Gaudi's hand until
1904, when the famous architect changed it. Excluding some maintainance
work, the structure has not changed since, over 100 years ago. |
Gaudi's design went far and deep. He
changed the outer and inner designs. Among others, the roof of the
building was designed to look like an animal's back, the outer walls
became wave-like in form, the colors of the building varied and natural
light strenghthened. |
