Pilgrimage – Casa Mila and Casa Batllo

The Casa Mila, which is also known as the La Pedrera (trans: quarry, in Catalan) was finished in 1907.

This organic theme continues inside, surprisingly very colourful and well-lit.

The roof slab is actually warped! Note Sagrada Familia in the background.

casabatllo

The Casa Batllo is a renovation, so possibly more attention to ornamentation happened here. A fantastic example of Gaudi’s stylised formal and colour mastery in stone, glass and ceramic.
