Casa Batlló

The rostrum and its interpretations.During a time the façade causes quite an impact.Soon many names were put forward in order to define it, in respect to its characteristics.Due to the shape of the rostum´s windows it was dubbed the house of yawns, altough it would become more widely known as the house of bones, for the shape of the stone columns between the windows.The shape and the join of the rostum columns are very similar to human joints.

indeed amazing work
good choice taking the picture when some people stand behind the glass: it gives a good idea how big it is
