Antoni Gaudí i Cornet 25 June 1852 - 10 June 1926 was a Catalan architect and designer known as the greatest exponent of Catalan Modernism. Most are located in Barcelona including his main work the Sagrada Família church. Gaudí's work was influenced by his passions in life: architecture nature and religion. He considered every detail of his creations. His work combined crafts such as ceramics stained glass wrought ironwork forging and carpentry. He introduced new techniques in the treatment of materials such as trencadís. Under the influence of neo-Gothic art and Oriental techniques Gaudí became part of the Modernista movement which peaked in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His work transcended mainstream Modernisme culminating in a style inspired by natural forms. Gaudí preferred to create three-dimensional scale models and moulding the details as he conceived them. Josep Lluís Sert i López 1 July 1902 - 15 March 1983 was a Catalan architect and city planner established in the USA after 1939. This church is part of an ambitious industrial complex in the town of Santa Coloma de Cervello Barcelona. A large textile factory that Eusebi Güell the great patron of Gaudí launched in 1890. Mr. Güell´s goal with Colonia Güell was he wanted to be away from the city where trade union movement was growing and build workers' houses beside the factory and integrate them into the same property resulting in a village with its own personality that join social and economic life. As a distinctive feature of this colony Güell wanted to give it cultural and sports facilities and although initially not regarding building a church a small existing chapel was used. When this chapel became too small for the growing population of the colony Güell decided to instruct Gaudí to build a new church that could accommodate all the inhabitants. However little did Güell imagine that Gaudí would make a proposal as sober stern and radical. The architecture was based on the task of making Güell a place of worship that harmonized with the unconventional architecture of the workers homes in Güell´s Colony and with the nearby forest and the slope of the hill where it would be projected. Although it is commonly called "Crypt Güell" actually there is none of the church that goes underground since all the windows are facing the street. It is therefore the lower nave of the church which remained unfinished as reflected in the side porch stairs that although currently do not lead anywhere if the project had been completed they would allow access to the upper part of the church. In 1909 ten years after the project began and the first stone of the church was put in place they continued to build despite constant interruptions. Until various economic problems stalked Mr. Güell and the construction of the Güell´s Crypt was paralyzed. In 1915 when the tempo was consecrated they had only built the "crypt" or lower part of the church and the porch. The lower church the starry polygonal floor features a large central dome and it is supported by four hewn basalt columns. The ambulatory where the altar is located has the Catalan vaults on columns of brick and stone from a quarry owned by Güell in the region near Garraf. A very rustic and monochrome interior that is only interrupted by the colors of the large windows that are in the shape of flower petals or butterfly wings. This is the evocative and colorful stained glass work of Josep M. Jujol and it allows light to enter very subdue into the dark interior. The inside of Güell´s Crypt seems more like a natural grotto than a construction of the fruit of human hands. This effect is achieved by having dark colors on the floor and walls that evoke the darkness of the woods either by fallen leaves or by the shadow cast by the trees. Walls are interrupted by small polychromatic clearings of light that would be represented by the windows. In the church on the top floor the idea was that it was to be painted blue gold and white symbolizing the sun and sky above the trees. To set it all off nicely the towers would be topped with white doves alluding to the name of the town. With this complete symbology Gaudí shows the attendees the way of salvation from the darkness of hell at the bottom to the golden white and blue glory of the upper part of the church.
