Casa Battló: Intro and Entry

Casa Batlló was entirely renovated with designs by Antoni Gaudi for wealthy Barcelona textile merchant Josep Batlló and his family about 1905.  It is still a beautiful statement of the 'Modernista' style, a Barcelona version of Art Nouveau, with swirling organic forms, exquisite craftmanship and creative engineering.  Antoni Gaudi
