Yesterday we had a unique opportunity to visit one of Barcelona's most emblematic schools: The Santa Teresa School designed by Modernista maestro Antoni Gaudi. Built during the late 1880s, the building is a masterpiece of frugality meets genius. The arched hallways, the amazing exterior (All in true Gaudi style in both form and symbolism) and even the gardens present an absolutely amazing setting. As it is a fully functioning school, visiting is very restricted, and I would personally like to thank Gemma for getting us this one-time chance.
After years of visiting monuments around Spain, I am still in awe of his creativity and genius, even when making do with a very limited budget (he began the project with 1 peseta).
