La Pedrera

Casa Mila was designed by the brilliant architect Antoni Gaudi and is located a little way up from the famous street 'La Rambla' on the corner of Carrer Provença. Built in 1905-1907, it's better known by it's nickname: "La Pedrera" ("The Quarry" in Catalan) I guess because it looks like it was carved out of rock.

The building doesn't have any straight lines and definitely has the feel of waves of lava or sand-dunes. It's a magnificent building to behold, for sure.

If you are a fan of architects that break free from our understanding of conventional architecture - a Guadi structure never disappoints!

If you go, make sure to check out the roof.
