G.PLAN OF THE CRYPT

CEILING OF CRYPT

ROOF OF THE CRYPT

LONGITUDNAL AND TRANSVERSE SECTIONS

.FROM BEHIND CRYPT IS INACCESSIBLE IN FRONT OF CRYPT THERE IS A LARGE VESTIBULE SUPPORTED BY PILLARS .THE PILLARS ARE THE FIRST THING THAT CATHCHES THE VISITOR’S EYE

VIEWS OF VAULTS WHEN APPROACHES TO THE CENTRE OF CRYPT i.e. THE ALTAR, THE FIRST REACTION .IS TO DUCK THE PILLARS SLANT SO SHARPLY THAT NO ONE CAN THINK .THAT IT GOING TO COLLAPSE GAUDI DESIGNED A MODEL TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE PILLARS AND ARCHES WOULD .BEAR THE LOADS

CEILING

AVOID HEIGHTINING IN THE DESIGN AS ALREADY FRAGILE SENSE .CONVEYED BY THE VALUTED CEILING .NUMEROUS ARCHES MASONED IN BRICK IN CEILING .THIS WAY THE ROOF SEEMS LIGHTER

STAIRCASE A PINE TREE STANDS ON THE .SITE GAUDI RAN THE STAIRS AROUND .IT THE WINDING STAIRS, FORMED, LEADING AROUND THE CRYPT AND ENHANCE NATURAL RURA OF THE BUILDING AS A .WHOLE

CHANCLEL ITSELF ENCIRLCED BY A U-SHAPED HALL, WHICH CONDRICTS THE NATURE OF .CRYPT THE PILLARS BRANCH IN NUMEROUS ANGLES AT THE .TOP THIS HALL OF PILLARS GRADUALLY APPROACHES TO .THE CHURCH THE PILLARS REFLECT THE STRUCTURE OF PINE FOREST i.e. GRADUAL TRANSITION FROM NATURE TO .ARCHITECTURE

FAÇADE TREATMENT

.THE FAÇADE IS DOMINATED BY A HUGE BLOCK OF GRANITE COVER THE FLOOR OF THE CHURCH AND SIDEWALKS WITH GRAY MARBLE SLABS THE CRYPT IS BUILD IN BASALTIC STONE BRICKS WITH MOSAICS WHO .”OFFER AN APPEARANCE OF "ARCHAIC

WINDOWS TREATMENT

THE WINDOWS JUT OUT OVER THE WALLS, AND IN THE UPPER PART OF THE DOOR A CERAMIC COMPOSITION SHOW THE FOUR CARDINAL .VIRTUES

CONCLUSION THIS BUILDING WAS FOR GAUDÍ A TEST FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF HIS BIGGEST WORK BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN TESTING DIFFERENT ARCHITECTURAL SOLUTIONS IN IT, LATER APPLIED IN THAT OTHER .TEMPLE

ANTONIO GAUDI CASE STUDY PARK GUELL

PLAN OF PARK

GUELL ACQUIRED THE MUNTANYA PELADA IN THE NORTHWEST OF .BRCELONA, AS THE SITE OF PARK .THE LAND WAS BARREN OF ALL VEGETATION THE LACK OF WATER AND THE STONY, DRY EARTH MADE THE AREA .SOME WHAT UNSUITABLE FOR A STTELEMENT

FAÇADE TREATMENT

THE MAIN GATEWAY SHOW TWO ADMINISTRATIVE PAVILIONS MADE IN STONE THESE PAVILIONS AT FIRST SIGHT RESEMBLE HOUSES ..FROM SOME MAGICAL FOREST

WINDOW TEARTMENT

PATH WAYS THE TERRAIN WAS TOO STEEP FOR ROADS AND .PATHS GAUDI DECIDED NOT TO HAVE PARTS OF THE .HILL LEVELED HE DESIGNED THE STREETS IN THE FORM OF VIADUCTS AND .CAVERNED PASSAGES THE SPLENDING GLEAMING CERAMIC COVERINGS WERE COMPOSED BY .MEANS OF A COLLAGE

BENCHES

. HE USED THE UNIQUE SHAPE OF BENCHES THE BENCHES ARE TILED AND IN ORDER TO DRY UP QUICKLY .AFTER IT RAINS

CONCLUSION IF NATURE PREORDAINED A CERTAIN FORM, THAN IT CAN ADOPT IN .ARCHITECTURE .THIS PARK EXHIIBIT THE GREATEST PROXIMITY TO NATURE
