La Pedrera (Casa Milà )Another fantastic construction by the creative genius Antonio
Gaudi, Casa Mila, commonly known as La Pedrera, was the last civil
work that Gaudi undertook before dedicating all his time to the
assembly of La Sagrada FamÃlia. The building demonstrates the
signature style of Gaudi with elaborate designs, globular shapes,
assorted sculptures, colourful tiles and intricate details. Built
between 1906 and 1912, the distinct architecture of La Pedrera and
her counterparts was unconventional and unheard of in the popular
Spanish architecture of the time. Renowned for its attractive
rippled façade, visitors to La Pedrera can also witness a
spectacular panoramic view from the rooftop as well as some
eccentric signature-style chimneys.
