Casa Milà

This house is an incredible feat of architecture! Gaudi built it on the corner of two streets, and with its undulating outside walls, it gives the sensation of waves and the sea. Even the railings blend with his style, as they closely resemble seaweed! Gaudi threw out the idea of straight lines both inside and out, and gave the inside courtyards a round floor plan, as well as covering up the chimneys with huge sculptures that look like medieval knights’ helmets. Exploring Casa Milà is not like exploring a house, it’s more like taking a peek into Gaudi’s brain and trying to figure out how he imagined all this!
