Description
Casa Mila, also known as La Pedrera, is a modernist building in Barcelona, Spain, designed by the famous Spanish architect Antoni Gaudi. One of its most famous features is a wonderful rooftop sculpture garden where skylights, chimneys, vents, water tanks, and staircase exits are the sculptures; Gaudi believed in integrating the utilitarian and the aesthetic. Here you see one of the staircase exits, covered with a mosaic of waste ceramic pieces, an art technique called trencadis for which Gaudi was well known.
