  • Something fishy going on

    This house was reconstructed by Gaudi during 1904-1906. The facade features bone-like pillars at the windows and balconies resembling fish skulls.

  • Here be dragons

    A lot of Gaudí's work feature colorful trencadis, a Catalan type of mosaic. The scaled roof looks like reptile skin and the roof could be a dragon.
