Casa Battló
Casa Batllo – is one of the most unusual or even strange houses of Barcelona, architecture of wich doesn’t have any straight lines and symmetry.

The work of art was recreated from the usual house prepared for demolition and was immediately called as “House of Bones” – due to the complex decor and beams. Some historians believe that the architect got the inspiration from the surrounding nature.
