Gaudi's Light Harmony Shapes Mediterranean Interiors
Antoni Gaudi believed light’s balance at a 45 degree incline creates medium light optimal for vision. He used skylights, varied windows, shutters, and color to illuminate interiors in Casa Batlló and other Modernist works in Barcelona. Patricia Urquiola designed Mandarin Oriental Barcelona reflecting regional light and cosmopolitan openness with a white, green, and black palette.
