Guided tours of Gaudí's houses: exploring the facades

A guided tour of several of the houses Gaudí built in Barcelona, with the guide pointing out what goes unnoticed at first glance. The working material is the details. The balconies, which solve the same problem in a different way in each house. The chimneys, treated as sculptures rather than smoke outlets. The color of the façades, which was a controversial decision at the time and is taken for granted today. Also the use of interior space, which is where Gaudí broke most sharply with his contemporaries: courtyards that narrow and widen to distribute light, floors without load-bearing walls, staircases that don't go where you expect. Seen one after another, it becomes clear that these are not similar houses but successive experiments with the same ideas. This booking cannot be canceled.
