    • Don't miss the Sagrada Familia, the master piece of Gaudi.
    Somewhere in a pannel I saw the following:
    Thanks Gaudi for inspiring a thought.
    For being a mirror where we want to reflect ourselves.
    For discovering that in nature we find the beginning and the end of all forms.
    For considering innovation as the only way to achieve perfection.
    Thanks for incentive ourselves to overcome each day.
    Because your work shows us that there is not any tool more powerful than imagination. With talent. With persistence. But above all, with the ability of dream other worlds. Impossible worlds.

    • You may enlarge this picture in order to read the explanations. Gaudi used known mathematical shapes like those I teach to my students... hyperboloids and paraboloids... Also you may see how a slight deformation of a simple square gives such a beautiful surface.

    • You see how the columns are made like a tree. A column with a square section, bifurcate in 4 branches also with a square section... it seems a fractal stuture... I wonder if Gaudi knew something about fratal objects...
