Hello Barcelona!

I am really excited about going to Spain this summer, apart from excellent beaches I will also get to see amazing architecture. Old Barcelona is known for it's Gothic architectural style developed in the 19th century.



One of the most remarkable architects of this time was Antonio Gaudi, known for his distinctively unique architectural style. He loved to shape stonework and iron (they had not yet discover steel), and used very vibrant colors on his buildings.
Gaudi and Barcelona are known for modernisme architecture, a style similar to Gothic but more emphasized on curves rather than straight lines with embellished decoration or detail.





His work is crazy!It is hard to believe he designed it in the 20th century. It seems like sci-fi design!!!
