Most are located in Barcelona, including his magnum opus, the Sagrada Fami´lia. Gaudi´’s work was influenced by his passions in life: architecture, nature, and religion. [3] Gaudi´ considered every detail of his creations and integrated into his architecture such crafts as ceramics, stained glass, wrought ironwork forging and carpentry. He also introduced new techniques in the treatment of materials, such as trencadi´s which used waste ceramic pieces.
