It's hard to believe but this room was designed by Gaudi at the turn of the 20th centruy... it looks like something out of the 21st century..
About this place:
Casa Batlló, located at Passeig de Gracía is one of the great masterpieces of Antoni Gaudi, an architect who also created La Sagrada Familia, La Pedrera and some other great pieces of architecture in Barcelona. Once in Barcelona, one shouldn't miss it. It is one of the architect's most complete works and reflects an intense yet abstract naturalism.
The local name for the building is Casa dels ossos (House of Bones), and indeed it does have a visceral, skeletal organic quality. It was originally designed for a middle-class family and situated in a prosperous district of Barcelona.
