Casa Milà is located in Barcelona, Spain. It is one of the masterpieces of Antoni Gaudí, it was built for a wealthy widow named Roser Segimón and her husband Pere Milà.
The living area is just one floor below the loft, the inside decor has been changed several times, but there are still some retro furnitures inside.
At the time when Casa Mila was completed, the first floor were shops, third, fourth and fifth floor were apartments for lease, Pere Milà and his wife lived on the second floor.
Casa Milà is characterized by its self-supporting stone facade, meaning that it is free of load-bearing walls, which allows bigger windows and free structuring.
All rooms in Casa Mila have two windows, one faces attic while another one faces the street, which introduces the natural sunlight from both sides.
In addition, Gaudi applied constant curves in the design of Casa Mila on both outside and inside, incorporating ruled geometry and naturalistic elements.
Casa Mila has been changing its ownership several times. Finally, the day before Christmas 1986, a bank named Caixa Catalunya bought it for 900 million pesetas.
The admission of Casa Mila is a bit pricey, but there are many worth seeing things inside, Choumeizai thinks it is worthy.
