Sagrada Familia

Culture

The Sagrada Familia is the most famous project by Gaudi, has been under construction since 1882 and is the most visited landmark in Spain and was deemed a World Heritage site in 2005 UNESCO World Heritage Centre (2013). The Sagrada Familia combines Gothic and Art Nouveau styles inspired by nature and Gaudi’s inspiration can be rooted in nature and the 19th century modernism movement, which rejected traditional values and styles and prioritised new materials and textures (Prinseps, 2019). Digital technologies such as CAD, 3D modeling, and virtual reality have facilitated construction and tourist experiences (Blog Sagrada Família, 2017), such as virtual exploration for remote tourists. The Sagrada Familia largely contributes to Spain’s economic growth through tourism and supports education with educational programs and workshops. Using digital interpretation, the Sagrada Familia can meet the sustainable development targets of goal 8,decent work and economic growth and goal 4 of Quality education.
