Sagrada familia

Antoni Gaudí was a Catalan arquitecte who is most famous for representing Catalan modernism. His most famous project is the sagrada familia, a basilica still in construction.

He also constructed several amazing buildings like the Batlló and Milá

They both are classic Gaudí design, full of colourful mosaics and curving walls.

The sagrada familia is still in construction since 1882 and is estimated to be finished around 2026, the original blueprints of the sagrada familia were lost during the civil war and they have only found parts of the blueprints, several architect and artists are reconstructing the blueprints and adapting it to modern technology.

  3. The buildings are very beautiful! The buildings in Denmark are not that beautiful. But we have a few nice buildings in Copenhagen. Maybe I will make a blog, where I can show you pictures of building in Copenhagen:-) Keep your eyes open!
