Córcega
316 is a modernist facade, which was built at the end of the XIXth century.
The modernist movement is different in every country and they have different
nouns. In Italy it is called Liberty and Art Noveau in France.
The common characteristics of the modernist artists are the fantasy, the
representation of nature and the union of the architecture with the minor
arches, this root of the modernism will find a great evaluation and will
be the glass, the iron, the tiles and the broken tiles which Gaudi did
so famous.
The presence of the curve line trying to identify nature.
Also it is possible to observe glazing and tiles of different colours,
those take advantage very much of the light. They were very interested
in having a great light in the buildings. The doors are very big and very
impressive. I'm sure everybody looks at it when they pass by
One of the characteristic of this building is that it plays with volume
and relief.
