Residential Living

Not often does a city have such luxurious and proclaimed residential architecture as in Barcelona. Probably the most influential on Barcelona architecture were those designed by Antoni Gaudi. Even if you had no idea about different architectural designs and eras the designs of Gaudi are unmistakable throughout the city and stand out. La Pedrera possibly the most interesting residential architectural design in the world has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its truly stunning design. Another residential design by Gaudi includes Caso Batllo, built in 1877 yet restored in 1904 and was awarded one of the top building designs by city Council in 1906. The roof of this building is arched like that of a dragon and provides a distinctive relief against the night sky.
