I've been working on some pattern ideas for spring, first and foremost a few concepts for sleeveless tops: hopefully projects that will be fun and interesting, and work up fairly quickly (having reluctantly put aside the hat projects until a time when someone will actually feel like knitting a hat!).
You can bet that if I'm inspired by my recent visit to Barcelona,
"interesting" will be an understatement!
All of the photos show examples of the work of
Antoni Gaudi.
In order:
Casa Battlo, exterior and interior;
Casa Mila (La Pedrera), exterior, inside of attic, and
rooftop; and the temple
To be honest, the exterior of this temple (still under construction) looks to me like something out of a nightmare,
but the interior is oddly beautiful. I found the cool, gray light inside to be quite lovely, in an austere sort of way-- most of the windows are still empty. However, a few of the stained glass windows have already been installed, and judging from those, there will be a kaleidoscopic quality to the interior, once finished.
