The Secret to Modernity Is Light

One of the shrines of modern architecture, I find it immensely fortunate to finally have a tactile experience with this building.

Seeing the Barcelona Chairs in context. The Pavilion was built to host the royal launching “party” and these were suppose to be the thrones. I find it peculiar that we’re not supposed to sit on these chairs.

The only place we could really sit was outside, it’s more comfortable than imagined.
