Casa Batlló
The challenge of embellishing and highlighting the values of an emblematic building.

The lighting project of this emblematic Barcelona building has two parts: the façade and the interiors.

The work on the façade focused on highlighting all its secrets, by giving prominence and outlining the shapes and irregularities on its surfaces, showing its colors and textures. In order to execute this work, several light tests were necessary to determine the best way to see the effects of the light beams on the heterogeneity of the different areas.

The interior project uses the volumes of the architecture, walls and ceilings. We must make special mention of the personalized study made by Enzo Catellani, from Catellani & Smith, who designed special installations, from the Postkrisi series, that lights up the walls and columns of the garage.
