Dusty morning. The crew pull up rough from a night exploring the town. That sangria is a quiet sleeper.
The day was dedicated to Mies and a survey of the city’s contemporary public space and buildings,
with a smattering of the old. With time of the essence the crew split into teams to explore different layers of the city. The Barcelona pavilion was a clear standout, but we were pleasantly surprised with the depth and quality of the contemporary work. Gaudi’s work inspired the ‘historic team’, and lead to a lively evening’s discussion and photo swapping to try to discover the essence of Barcelona.
