Parts of the unfinished basilica and Gaudí's models and workshop were destroyed during the war. The present design is based on reconstructed vers...

The style of Sagrada Família is variously likened to Spanish Late Gothic, Catalan Modernism or Art Nouveau. While the style falls within the Art Nouveau period, Nikolaus Pevsner points out that, along with Charles Rennie Mackintoshin Glasgow, Gaudí carried the Art Nouveau style far beyond its usual application as a surface decoration.
The art historian Nikolaus Pevsner, writing in the 1960s, referred to Gaudí's buildings as growing "like sugar loavesand anthills" and describes the ornamenting of buildings with shards of broken pottery as possibly "bad taste" but handled with vitality and "ruthless audacity". The building's design itself has been polarizing. Assessments by Gaudí'...
