Barcelona and its architectural inspiration I bet its an architect's favorite city.
Antoni Gaudi i Cornet was a spanish Catalan architect. As some of you heard that Barcelona is part of the Catalonia part of Spain. His work is very concentrated in Barcelona the style is exquisite.
One of the most important pieces is the Basilica i Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia an amazing church that Gaudi started working on the project 1883.
" My client is not in a hurry"
Gaudi died and the project was only 25 percent done. The project was given to alot of artists and architects and was disrupted from lots of wars and death they assume that its wont be completed until 2028.
Park Guel is also a landscape that contains lots of his techniques. The park is located also in Barcelona he designed it in a way to bring the peace and calm parks are suppose to reflect. I absolutely loved it truly a must see. The focus point of the park is the fountain with a big dragon designed by his colorful Mosaic style. You will find alot of mosaic tiles on the walls and ceilings also on benches he made them to let people socialize and they can dry quickly after rain for them not to sit on wet benches.
You should check more of his work and history its such an inspiration for designers.
