Gaudi’s mosaics

Gaudi left behind some amazing mosaic work all over Barcelona, Spain, especially in Park Güell. Here stands the world’s largest park bench completely covered in broken tile.


Every color is represented and multiple patterns are thrown in, but the bench is divided into sections with similar background colors. Maybe we could pick up a few pointers about color usage in quilts from this work.

Underneath the bench is a room filled with columns where the ceiling is covered in mosaics as well.


What a great place to spend a couple hours!
