Casa Batllo
Antoni Gaudí 1904-1906
This is one of the most charismatic examples of Modernist art in the Eixample district. The architect Antoni Gaudí personally designed the whole building, from the astonishing façade to the interior decoration, including the furnishings. The front of the building is covered in mosaic tiles and the roofing is made of ceramic tiles.
