the sagrada familia, one of the most recognized icons in and out of the architectural world, is expected to be completed by 2026 in time for antonio gaudi’s 100th anniversary after his death. with the advent of new 3D visualization technologies in the last years the foundation is able to create what the esteemed structure will finally look like upon its completion with the help of a helicopter flying around the cathedral. the following video shows the completed structure but the organization has also released a series of clips highlighting each of the upcoming elements to be finished in the coming years. after over a century and a half of construction, we can at least get a sense for how the project will look in only 13 short years.

I visited this monumental work four months ago my first time. To describe this singularly magnificent work as monumental is totaly an understatement. Anybody who calls himself or herself an architect or artist owe it to him/herself to see this grandeur, feel what’s it’s like inside, look up to heaven within the interior space, feel the warmth of sun through the stained glass window expanse and just stand still for a few moments, contemplate, meditate, absorb the love from the humanity that surrounds you amidst all the hush, hush noise around, get lost in the moment and you’ll come back a new person, smiling.
Now get that next flight to Barcelona, pronto!
