This design was originally conceived to decorate the interior of the apartment of Casa Milà, Gaud's last great private comission, 1905-1910. Casa Milà, "La Pedrera", was comissioned by textile industrialist Don Pedro Milà and his wife Doña Rosario Segimó Artells.
The organic and flowing style of Casa Milà derived inspiration from the grotto-like rock Formations of the Montserrat Mountains at Catalonia, a style reflected in the organic forms of this amazing console.
