Select an example of architecture from the Art Nouveau style. Identify the stylistic elements that are indicative of the period it was created in. I chose the Casa Mil? from Antonio Gaudi Cornet dated 1905-1912 located in Barcelona, Spain. The three distinct feature of the Art Noveau style are 1) the use of organic elements, 2) Curvilinear design motifs, referred to as the whiplash curve, and 3) the integration of all design elements into a whole. In Cornet?s Casa Mil? he incorporates the idea of a ?living whole? and restructures it to another level. The structure is seen with multiple undulating forms while wrapping around the street?s corner as if molded from clay. His structure also features windows that resemble ?cave openings, ?organic? iron railings, and fantastical chimneys.
