Fantastical chimneys

Up on the colorful roof terrace are 20 chimneys and air vents of varying fantastical designs, decorated with trencadis ceramic work, glass, marble or sandstone.

Not trying to overdo it, but I love all these chimneys together!

I just love these. They appeal to my sense of whimsy. I so wish that more cities would incorporate this kind of architecture. But sadly, there was only one Gaudi. We need more like him! VV
