casa milà roof

The building uses a completely original solution to solve the issue of a lobby being too closed and dark. Excellent Segway tour Really informative and so much fun I was worried my (10) and (12) year old children wouldn’t be allowed to ride but they were fine the tour guide was so helpful! Our guide gave us lots of background information about history and architecture of the city which will also help us with understanding different styles when visiting other places in coming days. The shape and location of the courtyards makes the arches higher when the space is narrowed and lower when the space expands. (Inner courtyards became a Gaudí speciality, as visitors to Casa Batlló will already have discovered.) This tour was perfect to start our visit to Barcelona. Several structural innovations include a self-supporting stone façade, and a free-plan floor, underground garage and the spectacular on the roof-terrace. The large stone slabs of the facade were attached first and then worked on by the stonemasons. The roof terrace at La Pedrera-Casa Milà is unique.

There's a small relief model on the roof terrace that helps you visualise the general layout. Casa Mila - La Pedrera: Just interesting roof - See 23,270 traveler reviews, 19,075 candid photos, and great deals for Barcelona, Spain, at Tripadvisor. On the rooftop there are six skylights/staircase exits (four of which were covered with broken pottery and some that ended in a double cross typical of Gaudí), twenty-eight chimneys in several groupings, two half-hidden vents whose function is to renew the air in the building, and four domes that discharged to the facade.

From these nails was dangled a chain so that the lowest point coincided with the deflection of the arch. We did some geocaching and had some laughs and we love riding Segway. Most of the chimneys and two of the staircase exits should have been covered with trencadís made from ceramics, stone, bottles or other materials. The house, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was built from 1905 to 1912 in the typical Catalan Modernisme style; yet, with this building, Gaudì pushed the style and its distinctive elements beyond the limits. The unique structure of the building and the relationship between the building’s architect and Pere Milà became the object of ridicule for the people of Barcelona and many humorous publications of the time.

The corner plot sits on the intersection of the wonderful Passeig de Gràcia and the Carrer de Provença and benefits from a southerly aspect. The facade connects to the internal structure of each floor by means of curved iron beams surrounding the perimeter of each floor. The roof resembles both the ribs of a huge animal and a palm, giving the roof-deck a very unconventional shape similar to a landscape of hills and valleys.

Great experience Would highly recommend this guided tour around the city, you are in the safe hand of the guide who will tell you about the city’s historic architecture. The sloping roof that vertiginously tilts into the courtyards is as smooth as marzipan or putty or pottery, as if the whole was moulded as one and fired in some immense kiln. One of the most notable elements of the building is the roof, crowned with skylights, staircase exits, fans, and chimneys. The center includes a bookshop and a cafe. And the facade, with its irregular shapes, reminds of a quarry. Definitely would recommend!!! Gaudí, a Catholic and a devotee of the Virgin Mary, planned for the Casa Milà to be a spiritual symbol.

The ventilation towers help renew the air in the attic. The two halls are fully polychrome with oil paintings on the plaster surfaces, with eclectic references to mythology and flowers. \"La Pedrera\" translates to \"the quarry house\". At the attic, a gallery called Espai Gaudì (Gaudì’s Space) depicts the architecture and design of the Catalan architect through models, drawings, objects, and multimedia exhibits. At the beginning it was a bit hard to find how the audio guide works, since it' s automatic, but as soon as we did it, we enjoyed an amazing tour. Do not miss looking up the façade before you step inside. They crowd the skyline like sentries. This allows the owners to change their minds at will and to modify, without problems, the interior layout of the homes. It was a little confusing at first but we got used to it. We regret your disappointment with the visit of Casa Milà, that it's designed to ensure the most satisfaction as possible. After Semana Trágica, an outbreak of anticlericalism in the city, Milà prudently decided to forgo the religious statues. Overt religious elements include an excerpt from the Rosary on the cornice and planned statues of Mary, specifically Our Lady of the Rosary, and two archangels, St. Michael and St. Gabriel. While on the rooftop the audio guide tells about Gaudi’s vision for this building.

Roof and chimneys Casa Milà roof architecture, chimneys known as espanta bruixes (witch scarers) Finally, the day before Christmas 1986, Caixa Catalunya bought La Pedrera for 900 million pesetas. Casa Milà is characterized by its self-supporting stone facade, meaning that it is free of load-bearing walls. The roof is interesting but rest is not very impressive. In 1911, as we know from photographs of workers on the terrace, the owners decided to install the current grille, although it did not correspond to the design Gaudí would have wanted.
