Top of Sangrada Familia
From here u can see, Gaudi design every single little things detailly, thats y it take so many yrs to build the sagrada famila. But how on earth this man design something in his life that it need more than hundreds yrs to build?
The Work in Sagrada Familia
Measuring and Cutting
Plaster Model
The Original Gaudi's model to calculate each stress point by hanging a cotton bag into the stress point. The weight of the cotton are acurately calculated based on the proportional stress of the point where it suppose to withstand when it invert the model.
Mirro image of the model is actually a model of the Sagrada Familia!!!I hope u catch what I trying to explain by showing u this 2 photos :)Sagrada Familia (1882 -until now!!)
The Legend!!! Sagrada Familia, start to build in 1882 and it is still under construction after 126 years!! Probably is the unbeatable Most delayed project in the world :P. How can he design a masterpiece with requires to build for more than 100 years! Antoni Gaudi left spend the last few years doing plaster model and detail design drawing as he know that he would never see live to see the finish of the project. He pass all the details engineering design to his succesitor and ofcos until now. There is a school and work shop inside the Sagrada familia in order to study and to model all of Gaudi;s design before they build it. The Church is still under construction and i am not sure how long more it will be. Maybe shoudl go back time by time to check the progress ne :)
Barcelona, Park Guell, 1900

Te 2 i think is guide house, more like a fantacy house
From now on, you will be stun by the creativity and imagination of a genious Architect, Antoni Gaudi(1852-1926). The figure of the distinguished architect Antoni Gaudi and his monumental work has become a referent of any visit to Barcelona.
Anybody who study architecture, civil engineering or Art design shd know him very well. This is the first time i came across his work. It was brain storming!! How could a human came out with such a complicated design with the combination of art and architecture. Antoni Gaudi has succesfully turn the barcelona into a piece of art. Where ever u walk, u will see building influence by the gaudi's creation.Yet, his masterpiece is a piece of god's creation!!! As he say, straight line is for Human, curve is for God, all his design is based on natural of god creation. U will see it later.......

Latest Update
Dear All,
Finally, after 2.5 weeks of waiting and almost given up of hope, I got the reply from the company that I went for interview. Hihihihihi.....I got the offer !!!!
The offer is a permenant staff positision (no need to worry loosing job out of suddent like now...) with my expected salary :P (not even negotiate with me, so i wonder whether my request is low)
After some thinking, i decided to take the offer..for the sake of saving some money and also traveling a bit more in europe.
I am glad that they are willing to go thro the trouble to apply for my work permit.
Anyway, I will still be going home for a break, and return to start my new job in May.
Thank you everyone for your support, courage, helps and advice :)
Thank you so much!!
