Barcelona is a spectacular display of original art. Architect Antoni Gaudi has left a beautiful heritage to the world of a type of architecture that will never be repeated again. Living in such beauty can only affect the inhabitant and multiply itself. In Barcelona there is no place or small corner that is not well designed and decorated. Art Nouveau pervades the entire city. The style inspired by nature flourished in most parts of Europe and Western World from the end of 1800s to 1915. The scope of this style was to turn ordinary objects, chairs, windows, doors and simple buildings into works of art. The results are all the harmonious architectures and various décor items we are still admiring today after more than a century.
During my visit to Barcelona, I discovered myself walking and looking up all the time to try to catch everything that was not on my eye level and looking down, as even the street pavement in some area is well designed.
The top photo is the original building, the below photo is my interpretation of the same building. Sometimes I have fun manipulating colors of my photos.
