Spain [Casa Mila & Casa Batlló]

An architect who loved curves. Casa Mila & Casa Batlló by Antoni Gaudi.
Casa Mila and Casa Batlló in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, ​​Spain!

Casa means ‘house’, and Casa Batlló means ‘house of Batlló’.
It is themed on the sea and contains the story of Saint George who bravely defeated a dragon to protect the Catalan Kingdom, a legend of Barcelona, ​​but it was also criticized as the ‘house of bones’ after remodeling because of the skeleton of the structure and the exterior of the balcony that resembled a skull.

Casa Mila was built when a wealthy man at the time named Mila asked to build a similar house after seeing Casa Batlló.
This building also has an exterior that resembles waves reminiscent of the sea. It is said that the waves and seaweed were expressed.

Gaudi, who cannot be left out when talking about Spain.

He is the best 🖤
