The best part about my trip to Barcelona was the chance to see one of my favorite architects up close and personal for the first time. Here are the three stops I was able to hit. 

Casa Batllo:

Outside:

 Main staircase:

Fireplace in the den:

Living room:

The interior light well (so beautiful):

Mushroom chimneys:

 

The dragon's back:

 

Sagrada Familia: 

Gaudi described it as looking like a forest inside, perfect description:

SF is now my favorite big fucking church:

One for Jennifer, the stained glass was chosen to be very richly colorful (they would slowly shift from orange to yellow to green to blue) causing the inside to glow beautifully:

Parachuting Jesus

Each entrance represented a different phase of Jesus' life, this was Gaudi's Nativity:

Workshop in the basement. The SF will never be completed:

If erection lasts for more than 4 centuries, consult physician:

Can't see the forest for the trees:

Money shot:

Casa Mila:

Now with hip cafe:
