Art in Stone: Exhibition Casa Milà – La Pedrera

Another masterpiece by Gaudí built from 1905-10, commissioned by the wealthy Pere Milà. This building was designed to be used as a fashionable home for the Milà family and as an office block.

The house's original name was Casa Milà; however, the building is better known by its name La Pedrera (The Quarry), which refers to the uneven gray stone facade that ripples around the corner of Carrer de Provença.
