House of spirits @ casa Batlo # Barcelona Spain
Casa Batlló is a building in the center of Barcelona. It was designed by Antoni GaudÃ, and is considered one of his masterpieces. A remodel of a previously built house, it was redesigned in 1904 by Gaudà and has been refurbished several times after that. GaudÃ's assistants Domènec Sugrañes i Gras, Josep Canaleta and Joan Rubió also contributed to the renovation project.The local name for the building is Casa dels ossos (House of Bones), as it has a visceral, skeletal organic quality. It is located on the Passeig de Grà cia in the Eixample district, and forms part of a row of houses known as the Illa de la Discòrdia (or Mansana de la Discòrdia, the "Block of Discord"), which consists of four buildings by noted Modernista architects of Barcelona.
