About Casa Batlló
Experience the avant-garde design of Casa Batlló, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, designed by Antoni Gaudí in 1906. The building's striking exterior, inspired by natural forms and modernist principles, captures the essence of Gaudí's creativity. Step inside to explore the innovative use of space, light, and materials, as every nook and cranny unveils the architect's commitment to pushing the boundaries of conventional design.
Casa Batlló wasn't built from scratch; instead, it underwent a transformation from an existing structure designed by Emilio Sala Cortés in 1877. Interestingly, Sala Cortés was Antoni Gaudí's teacher.
Gaudí incorporated an original ventilation system at Casa Batlló, featuring manual openings on windows to regulate airflow precisely.
Casa Batlló's architectural elements draw inspiration from the marine world and the Mediterranean sea.
Trencadís, a decorative technique using broken mosaic pieces, was one of Gaudí's preferred methods due to its sustainability and aesthetic value.
Gaudí infused Casa Batlló with organic elements, evoking the impression of a living organism. The wooden railing in the entrance hall resembles the backbone of a mythical creature, while the arches in the loft give the impression of being inside the belly of a whale.
