Since 1882, the Sagrada Família has spanned generations, techniques, and eras.
Marking the centenary of Antoni Gaudí’s death, this SPOT episode offers an architectural, historical, and sensitive exploration of this extraordinary work. More than a monument, Barcelona’s basilica stands as a monumental demonstration of architecture’s long timescale.
From Gaudí’s funicular models to Mark Burry’s digital tools, from tree-like columns to the Nativity façade, the Sagrada Família reveals a work that has outgrown those who first conceived it.
Sustained for more than one hundred and forty years by generations of architects, engineers, craftsmen, and donors, it reminds us that some architectures are not built on the scale of a human life.
What if architecture were less about leaving one’s mark than about becoming part of a continuity?
