Casa Batlló is located in Barcelona, Spain and architect Antoni Gaudi designed its current look. The house was already there but Gaudi revamped it in 1904. Gaudi’s three assistants also played an important role in the home’s renovation. This house is something I had never seen before. It was very organic but also has kind of a dark feel to it because it included skeletal aspects to it. The local name for it in Barcelona is Casa dels Ossos which means House of Bones. The roof of the house resembles a dragon’s spine, which is super cool. The exterior has lots of colorful mosaics, and is very curvy. I didn’t see any straight lines so it sort of reminded me of a building that might be in a Dr. Seuss story(except the skeletal part).

I got to see the exterior in person last summer, and something Arnold Schwarzenegger was in Barcelona during that time too and he took a picture in front of Casa Batlló. I missed him by maybe an hour so that was disappointing.
