holy family is one of barcelona's best known landmarks what has been in progress on the church designed by the catalan architect for one hundred thirty six years should be fairly is the seventh in a series of architects who have a seen a project since god he's dead he's been leading the work since twenty twelve. started back in one thousand nine hundred when the head architect or now to commission me when i leave because there were four of us back it still was not all there is close to fifty of us working on the site that's when. when it's finished the circuit that is familiar should look like this it will have eighteen spotters and three facades. to go here oversaw the construction for more than four decades

until he was hit by a tram and killed in one nine hundred twenty six after his death architects from all around the globe continued his life's work a foundation raise the funds as a church of a term and the work is financed exclusively by donations and the entrance fee neither the spanish government nor the catholic church contributes financially nonetheless each year some twenty five million euros a raise towards completing his vision. for me but the other started to use a crowd of familiar completely unconventionally. of get out if you go to church in parts. list your first part was not the foundation of the interior name superfine you gave mr he and his workers erected a literary facade as a symbol of the afterlife so to speak but it probable one wish to try to. critics

it's like a journey you don't know where to where you're going because you never thought it there was so much. that turned out to be have to say that because it was always more and more and more. but it was also fun to do it. hardly anything remains of the old house this special furnishing was the idea of a construction worker during the renovation he had cut one piece out of the bathroom wall to make a window and and from this piece he cut this out and got the idea to make this laugh at this is really the only piece from the old house that reminds me of this it used. spacious open living space with many small cozy corners is a new feature. that includes a t.v.
