Architecual Spaces 2

Antoni Gaudi is a well known architect, famous for his wide imagination and the fact he never drew detailed drawings of his works. Gaudí conceived his buildings in a global manner, taking into account both structural and decorative functions. his architecture featured a series of crafts,  ceramic, stained glass, iron forging, carpentry, etc. Gaudi’s work culminated in an organic style that was inspired by nature.
Gaudi's work is an incredible inspiration, he use of colours and shapes is really significant in his work especially the use of nature.
His buildings don t look like buildings, they look like something off an alien planet or from a fantasy film. The colours are very bright and pastel, complimenting each other. Even the roof of his buildings look like endless colours of fish scales in a ocean, it is very imaginitive and beautiful.
Not only has he designed buildings, but gardens as well. Making structures like bridges and pathways.
