Casa Milà is Gaudí’s most emblematic civil building, both for its constructive and functional innovations and for its ornamental and decorative solutions, which break away from the architectural styles of its time. With this building, Gaudí introduced new approaches in the fields of construction, spatial geometry, habitat, ergonomics, materials, and inspiration.
Casa Milà has always stood out as unique and distinctive within Catalan Modernism, sparking intense debates between those who defended its groundbreaking aesthetics and those who criticised it for defying the stylistic conventions of the early 20th century.
Today, Gaudí’s Casa Milà is one of the most admired and visited architectural icons in Barcelona, attracting thousands of visitors who, year after year, are captivated by its unmistakable silhouette.
