Mercat de Santa Caterina

Sant Pere · interiors · $

I watched this building go up over years. The roof is an argument about color and landscape — not decoration. It's a contour map made of tiles.

Enric Miralles's undulating ceramic roof over an old market shell. The most photographed roof in Barcelona for good reason.
