Sagrada Familia- Gaudi

Antoni Gaudí is the prime example of global architecture. In his works there is no difference between structures and decoration, you cannot tell when one finishes and starts the other.

Construction for the temple Sagrada Familia was started at the beggining of the 19th century and is still in progress to this day.

Gaudi died in 1926, Quintana, Puig Boada and Lluís Bonet Garí were the architects selected to continue the construction.to this day it has still not been finished.

We will not see the end product for years to come.
