Our next stop was La Pedrera. It is another building designed by Gaudi on Passeig de Gracia, about one block away from Casa Batllo. Again, this is another ‘organic’ building and very beautiful. However my favorite is still the Casa Batllo. It may be the colors, lots of cream or more neutral colors, that makes it just a tad less interesting.
We took the stairs to go up to the amazing attic on the 6th floor. The construction of the attic is just amazing. The attic houses a permanent exhibition on Gaudi’s work, which is also very interesting.
Then we went up to the roof top. It was really grand. Again we found beautiful chimneys. I have to admit that they look a bit like cake decoration. However, these chimneys are very unique. I drew one of the chimneys while sitting on a step, leaning against another one. It was a glorious sunny day…it made me wonder if the residents are allowed to hold a BBQ party on this lovely roof top…
