Casa Batlló is the result of a house refurbishment commissioned by Josep Batlló i Casanovas, a textile industrialist who gave Gaudí complete freedom. Different types of trencadís, mainly glass, surround the construction –the main façade, the rear façade and the upper terrace. The fragments create a multicellular being that extends throughout the house, while different techniques, textures and colours come together.
