On the terrace, the outputs of the stairs were surprising sculptures helical lined with marble and ceramics stuck. The Casa Mila house was commissioned by Pere Milà, who was married to a rich widow, Mrs. Roser Segimon.
Mila's caption is wholeheartedly translated beneath. Some apartments are private individuals and is dedicated to the main exhibition hall of the Cultural Center Caixa Catalunya. The ventilation towers help renew the air in the attic. See the way in which they bring light into the building. The roof terrace at La Pedrera-Casa Milà is unique. As a carrier of the facade were used to be wavy jácenas embedded in stone and are linked to joists of varying lengths. Did you know that Casa Mila (La Pedrera) is also a Foundation?
Many of these chimneys are capped with what has become a characteristic Gaudí motif: a military spiked cowl with deep eye sockets.
It's clear that La Perdrera has enjoyed several bouts of restoration since it was first worked on by Antoni Gaudí. Most of the chimneys and two of the staircase exits should have been covered with trencadís made from ceramics, stone, bottles or other materials. The different spaces are defined by dividing non-structural partitions, which provides great flexibility to modify the spaces instead of changing the partitions or deleted altogether. This technique had an aesthetic function but it also served as protective waterproofing.
To soften the volumes of the staircases, Gaudí uses curves, all of them deriving from the regulated geometry which lightens the building using concavity, convexity and conical shapes.

The sine wave confers a unique movement to the stone facade absolutely continuous circumventing the corners, representing the sea. In the attic, Gaudí built a series of catenary arches of varying heights depending on the width of the corridor. Decorating the caps of this group of chimneys, above, are glass shards, some of which are clearly broken bottle bottoms, said by some to have been put in place by Gaudí himself, using champagne bottles left over from the building's inauguration party. However, we can still enjoy one of the most outstanding roof terraces in all Gaudí’s architecture, with some sculptural and architectural elements to set the imagination racing way beyond their functionality and attractive appearance.
